The teams offer specialist mental health expertise for CYP experiencing difficulties in behaviour/emotional well-being & vulnerable to mental health difficulties. ICT works alongside Children’s services staff with YP & families open to social care, where YP experience anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, family conflict, gender related distress or trauma experiences.

The post holder will assist in clinical admin, collection of KPIs, development of audit/research projects and teaching, plus clinical work, supporting the weekly DBT skills group for YP & parents/carers, and assessments.
