Job overview
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Clinical/Counselling Psychologist to join the NELFT Rough Sleepers Mental Health Team. This is an emerging clinical service which was originally funded by the GLA and MHCLG for a 2-year pilot project. The success of the pilot has enabled continued funding and the opportunity to expand the staffing establishment, and the role of Psychology Lead is critical to the ethos and operation of the service. The multi-disciplinary team also includes a Staff Grade Psychiatrist, Clinical Team Lead, Social Worker, Mental Health Nurse, Peer Support Worker and administrative support. The team works across the four NELFT boroughs of Barking & Dagenham, Havering, Redbridge and Waltham Forest.
The service is operationally based within the Redbridge Directorate of NELFT and the successful candidate will receive clinical supervision from
the Redbridge Lead Psychologist. NELFT have a strong commitment to staff development and the post holder would have close association
with other Psychological Services that include EMDR Consultants and BABCP accredited supervisors to support the post holders professional
development.
Main duties of the job
The post holder would be expected to contribute to the training opportunities available for members of MDT staff to support their development and provide supervision of Honorary Assistant Psychologists and trainees in order to support the psychological workforce development and increase the psychological opportunities available within the service.
Alongside this role there are other exciting new opportunities being developed within our Mental Health and Wellness Teams and a
full-time role working across both services would be available for the right candidate.
The successful candidate will need to have experience of working as a clinical/counselling psychologist in community mental health at a senior
level. They should have a particular interest in working with rough sleepers or homelessness and have the skills to assess the psychological
needs of these clients and be able to work flexibly to implement support or treatment plans. Knowledge of local mental health pathways and
voluntary organisations will also be beneficial. The post-holder must be able to work autonomously, although they will be supported by the wider
Rough Sleepers Team and Redbridge Lead Psychologist.
Working for our organisation
Probationary Period
This post will be subject to a probationary period. Internal applicants are exempt from the probationary period (unless you are an internal applicant currently part way through a probationary period or currently a bank member of staff).
Starting with NELFT
NELFT place a great deal of importance on new starters being properly welcomed and inducted into the Trust. All new starters will join the Trust on the first Monday of each month and will undertake a comprehensive induction of up to two weeks which will include mandatory training, systems training and the allocation of equipment. As part of the process new starters will have the opportunity to also meet the executive team, senior managers and attend a number of drop in sessions focusing in engagement, health and wellbeing and key processes. The induction will be held at our head office in Rainham, Essex.
High Cost Area Supplement
