Working in inpatient mental health is a great use of all skills we have as psychologists; it's a great place to learn, develop and progress to a qualified psychologist. The role is diverse, stimulating, and thought-provoking. If you would like opportunities to engage in 1:1 work, group interventions, consultation, teaching and supervision with excellent support from a qualified psychologist, then please apply to join our friendly team! If you're interested in working with people with a variety of difficulties and working with the MDT then this is the role for you. You will have a significant role collaborating with the MDT to develop trauma informed formulations that inform least restrictive care. We're keen to recruit recovery-oriented thoughtful team players and welcome all conversations if you're curious. You're also very welcome to come and meet some of the team and see the wards. If you're interested in joining a busy, passionate, and energetic team to make a difference to patients and progress to the next level, please give us a call! See attached JD and PS. Role involves:
• 1:1 psychological work with patients.
• Psychological group work with patients.
• Input to MDT meetings.
• Input to teaching and training.
