We are a specialist service for children, adolescents and young adults (0-25) with a learning disability where there are concerns about their behaviour, emotional well-being or mental health and whose needs cannot be met in mainstream services. This post offers a 12 month fixed term opportunity to gain broad experience of delivering psychological support within a multi-disciplinary team. We are committed to training and development and you should expect to access all relevant CPD for your role whilst in this post, including a monthly Reflective Practice Group for Assistant Psychologists. The successful candidate will be required to travel as part of the post therefore a full driving license and access to a car is essential.

Additionally, this varied role will include supporting the team in the collection of routine outcome measures, co-facilitation of groups, teaching, audit, participation/co-production projects and developing resources to support the delivery of the service. We take pride in being a supportive group of professionals, with a real ethos of care for the young people and families we see. We share core values of being person-centred, accessible and focussed on safeguarding children and young people. We offer an ecological systems approach to the assessment and management of emotional & psychological needs and maintenance of good mental health. Our Trust has a close relationship with the UEA, providing placements for the DClinPsy Programme, along with other opportunities to become involved in teaching, training and research in the Trust.
