You will have the opportunity to access training, and to develop your existing skills in working within all the relevant LMHT Pathways. We are a very supportive and experienced team who work to a recovery and psychologically informed model.
The post holder will be expected to work with patients and their families to support triage of referrals, assessment, personalised care planning and in the provision of specialist interventions. You will promote the recovery of patients and through working with partner agencies and primary care to ensure timely and safe discharge from secondary care.
This is a leadership role, and you will be expected to develop specialist skills in working within all pathways within the team. You will also be expected to support students and more junior staff within the team through clinical supervision and mentorship, and you may be asked to line manage some staff.
We are seeking enthusiastic team players, to work within a dynamic multi‑disciplinary health team, with excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and the ability and experience to manage complex cases in partnership with other agencies.
