SYNOPSIS • FULL DESCRIPTION
Specialist Clinical/Counselling Psychologist (Band 7) in adult mental healthDue to recent expansion of psychological provision and exciting developments in our service, we are seeking a passionate and committed clinical or counselling psychologist to join our Mental Health Integrated Network Team (MINT) in Hounslow. MINT is a multidisciplinary service providing holistic support and treatment to adults presenting with a range of mental health difficulties within a stepped-care framework. We have an established psychology team which is well integrated and highly valued in the service.
This post is an excellent opportunity for an enthusiastic early-career psychologist looking to develop and consolidate specialist clinical skills in working with complex needs, trauma and personality disorder diagnoses.
In addition to working 1-1 with clients, a significant part of this post involves embedding and developing psychological principles and thinking within the work of the whole MDT. Therefore, we require a candidate who thrives in a team environment and is passionate about dissemination of psychological thinking, consultation and leadership.
You will provide highly specialist assessments and treatment for individuals with complex mental health conditions, both 1-1 and in groups.
The role will include working with people from varied cultural backgrounds, including those seeking asylum, using interpreters when necessary.

You will provide psychological consultation and guidance to the whole MDT and offer supervision and training for trainee and assistant psychologists. A genuine desire to work within an MDT and promote psychological ways of working is essential.
You will play a key role in service developments in the service and, as part of this, you will support audit and research to drive and sustain the quality of the services we deliver. There will be opportunities to collaborate with trainee psychologists, local doctorate courses and a large network of psychological colleagues across the Trust.
