Clinical / Counselling Psychologist - Band 8b 1.0 wte – CMHT psychosis specialist and Community Enablement Pathway, Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust, Community Mental Health Services.This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced clinical or counselling psychologist to work across two community services, having input for 0.6wte to a CMHT as a specialist in psychosis and 0.4wte to a dedicated community enablement pathway that is inclusive of all mental health diagnoses.
As a principal psychologist you will join colleagues in delivering strong leadership in psychology provision in the team, as well as contributing to the Trust-wide development of our services. You will be expected to promote values that seek to support recovery in this client group and maximise the potential of individuals with the aim of reducing social exclusion, stigma and the potentially disabling effects of psychosis. As part of the Psychology team, you will also be expected to support clinical psychology trainees, clinical associates in psychology and other practitioners in their training and development. Research is also highly valued, and we have been identified as a trial site in a large multi-centre research trial for a psychological intervention for paranoia.
Our newly integrated CMHTs provide a comprehensive secondary care mental health provision to people with psychosis and non-psychosis presentations. The post involves providing psychological assessments and treatment to adults with a wide range of presentations, but will have a focus on people with hearing voices experiences and/or a diagnosis of psychosis or schizophrenia.
Our Enablement Pathway has been developed as part of the Mental Health Transformation. We are as excited by this service development and the opportunity it provides to improve patient care, reduce the need for inpatient treatment and contribute to the development of innovative interventions. The multidisciplinary team works across North and South Warwickshire and Coventry. We have three key service spokes; (1) supporting the repatriation of individuals from Out of Area placements, (2) supporting the successful reintegration of people from our local mental health rehabilitation units back into their communities and (3) supporting individuals in the community to develop the skills to live successful, fulling lives.
The successful applicant will be required to provide highly specialist psychological assessments and formulations. They will offer a range of evidence-based and recovery focused psychological interventions which will encourage positive risk taking and require working creatively.
Our Vision: To become an innovative, forward-thinking, and inclusive teaching organisation, enabling us to provide consistently high quality, safe, and compassionate care.
