Description

Here at RDASH NHS Trust we have an exciting opportunity for a full time/part time Band 6/7 development CBT Therapist and Supervisor to join our 'Mental Health Support Team'.

We offers low and high intensity psychological interventions for young people and their families experiencing mild to moderate mental health difficulties.

The MHST 'With Me in Mind' is at pre-CAMHS level of support and is built upon the recommendations in the green paper 'Transforming Mental Health Services for Children and Young People'.

The aim of the service is to shift the focus from reactive action taken to address poor mental health, to a preventative, early intervention approach.

As a service we are developing a stepped care model to ensure those young people whose needs may not be met by low intensity interventions receive timely access to evidence based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

As a CBT therapist within the team your role would include: assessment, formulation and evidenced based treatment for comprehensive school aged children, supervision of low intensity professionals, and consultation to the wider team.

We are looking to recruit an experienced CBT Therapist, with experience in the delivery of CBT to children and young people (CYP) and their families to manage anxiety, low mood, and behavioural problems.

Experience delivering supervision using a CBT framework is essential, as is understanding the speciality of low intensity CBT informed practice within the context of MHST's.

The post holder will be responsible for supporting the delivery of evidence-based CBT interventions in schools/colleges and supporting the supervision and governance structures.

They would be expected to hold a small case load of cases with moderate levels of complexity.

The post holder would be expected to work closely with the other supervisors & clinical leads.

They would also be expected to contribute to the training opportunities available for more junior members of staff to support their development.

Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust (RDaSH) employ around 3700 talented colleagues who are very much appreciated, valued, and respected.

We have a wide portfolio which includes mental health, physical health, learning disability and drug and alcohol services.

We are passionate about enhancing the quality of our service and we work hard to attract and select the right colleagues for our organisation.

Our goal is to employ those who share our passion for providing first class care while remaining committed to our vision and values.
