Description
This is an exciting opportunity to work as a Clinical / Counselling Psychologist in a multi-disciplinary team that warmly welcomes psychological ideas and practices. We are seeking to appoint an 8b Clinical / Counselling Psychologist to work in our Home Based Treatment Teams (HBTT) based in North Manchester (0.5 w.t.e.).

With a significant focus upon multi-disciplinary team working, the post will require a strong contribution to MDT meetings to support HBTT clinicians in decision making and care planning. The team focusses upon urgent assessments of acute mental health needs, comprehensive risk formulations, promoting psychological understanding of crises and supporting the guidance of service users into appropriate referral pathways. Participation in audit, research, service development initiatives and teaching and training will be encouraged and supported.

We are looking for Psychologists with enthusiasm and an appreciation of the challenges and rewards of working within a culturally diverse inner city environment. Psychologists in the Manchester HBTT’s are professionally managed and you will receive supervision, access to CPD and annual appraisals. We enjoy strong links to the regional Doctoral Clinical Psychology Training Courses and host placements for Trainee Clinical Psychologists.

Experience of being able to formulate risk and work with complex and enduring mental health problems is essential to this post.

The post would be suitable for a clinical / counselling psychologist who could be confident in applying a flexible and theoretically integrative approach, given the wide range of mental health needs and risks that present to the team.
