    Description

    Job summary

    We are delighted to offer a range of full time and part time opportunities for Clinical or Counselling Psychologists at both Band 8a and Band 7 (offered as preceptorships) based in the Nottingham City Local Mental Health Teams (LMHTs).

    The LMHTs have a range of mental health professionals working within them and support people who experience a variety of mental health difficulties, including complex trauma, psychosis, depression, anxiety, dissociation, self-harm and life-threatening behaviours. The successful applicant will be responsible for the provision of psychological interventions with patients who require input from the wider team. The post holder will be a key member of the LMHT, combining direct individual and group clinical work with supervision, training, consultation, research and service evaluation/development.

    There is also an exciting opportunity for a Band 8a Clinical or Counselling Psychologist to be part of the newly developed Community Rehab Team. A key function of the team will be to assist the transition from inpatient care to the community or to offer an alternative to an inpatient rehab stay. The team will be staffed by people who are motivated to work in a person-centred, recovery-orientated way and you will be directly involved in shaping the culture and practice of the team, as well as providing formulation, interventions, consultation and supervision.

    We would welcome applications from D Clin Psych trainees who are due to qualify in September 2024.

    Main duties of the job

    We see the role of psychologists working in Adult Mental Health services as:

    To enhance the psychological mindedness of the Multi-Disciplinary Team and Adult Mental Health Service as well as improve the psychological competence and confidence of non-psychologists within the MDT to deliver psychological interventions.

    As a group we prioritise the individual Psychologist's well-being. We want Psychologists to thrive and get the most from their employment as well as being able to balance this with their home life. We also believe that Psychology support is much more than providing therapy and Psychologists are therefore encouraged and given the freedom to develop their interests not only within direct clinical work, but also around the broader application of psychology to the mental health difficulties of the population we serve.

    As well as working within the MDTs, the successful candidates will be part of a vibrant and friendly group of psychological therapists who work across the Trust. We meet on a regular basis to share ideas and engage with CPD. Our commitment to you is that we will provide you with opportunities to develop professionally within a committed and supportive Adult Mental Health service, which plays an increasingly important role in supporting wider access to psychological therapies within community settings.

    Job description

    Job responsibilities

    Together with individual work with service users, we encourage and support non-direct work with staff within the LMHT (supervision, training) together with initiatives which enhance the psychological mindedness of the wider directorate (, articles, wider training). As such we believe the role is ideally suited to someone who wants to work within an MDT setting and apply and develop their skills and interests across a broad and varied range of activities.

    We support and develop our staff to work with complexity through training resources, enhanced clinical supervision (eg CFT, complex dissociation, EMDR) and peer support. There are opportunities to learn from others and create your own role in a developing, flexible workforce.

    Working within the MDTs, you will be a senior member of staff and as such we will encourage and support opportunities in the development of leadership skills. We value individuals areas of interest, research and development and there will be opportunity for the successful applicants to be involved in service developments and audit projects.

    For Band 7 applicants we can offer the preceptorship opportunity which allows for progression to Band 8a after one years full-time employment and completion of a portfolio to demonstrate competence to work at that level. In addition, there will be support and supervision from a more experienced psychologist, and the responsibilities will be adjusted accordingly.

    Our commitment to you is that we will provide flexible working, regarding both the hours and location of work, as well as job design and development opportunities. The Trust has a strong commitment to providing successful applicants support to pursue relevant extended training.
