Description

We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic, motivated and compassionate Assistant Psychologist to join our team within the Cambridge Adult Locality Team.

The post-holder will be responsible for supporting the delivery and evaluation of Brief Psychological Interventions (BPIs) which are offered to service users with complex and severe mental health problems.

There are currently four BPIs:

Anxiety Management and Behavioural Activation, which are based on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Distress Tolerance which is based on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and Ground and Stabilisation for those who have PTSD.

As our service supports individuals in a community setting, the role will involve some lone working.

We are a large and supportive psychology team, consisting of qualified psychologists, trainee clinical psychologists, trainee clinical associate psychologists, and other assistant psychologists, who regularly meet to discuss referrals, assessments, formulation and case discussions.

**Interviews are planned to be held on Tuesday 4th July.
