Two permanent Band 7 vacancies (37 and 22.2 hours) for either CBT Therapists or CAAPs have arisen in the board-wide Psychological Therapies Groups Service. This service delivers evidence-based, psychological therapy group programmes to individuals who are receiving a service from secondary care adult mental health teams across NHS GG&C (Community Mental Health Teams). The service is currently exclusively delivered using video consultation.
