An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic qualified Psychological Therapist to become part of the integrated mental health and justice pathway working within the 3 local prisons across Norfolk
You will be welcomed into the prison IAPT services which is a small highly experienced and supportive team with enthusiasm to make a difference !
Therapeutic modalities offered within the service include CBT, CAT, counselling and EMDR.
The post holder will have excellent therapeutic skills, cultural competency and be able to be responsive and flexible in working within the busy prison environment
You will be working within a unique environment providing therapeutic assessment and treatment interventions to the prison population, primarily based at HMP Wayland .
The role is challenging yet wholly rewarding. Often you will be engaging with individuals who have previously not connected positively with mental health services.

You will be given autonomy to manage your individual caseload, with support and expertise from the wider team readily available.
Partnership working is essential within the prison environment to ensure a holistic approach to the care of our service users. You will be liaising with our prison services, drug and alcohol services, mental health teams and general medical teams to ensure that every aspect of our service users health is considered to achieve positive outcomes for them .
As an employer Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust are particularly committed to enabling our staff to do the very best, they can through support and training, as well as opportunities for progression. We are confident, therefore, that the right candidate will have a real chance to make a positive impact to the lives of the prison population
Within the prison IAPT service, you will find a welcoming, talented, friendly, and supportive team who like nothing better than sharing experiences and learning from each other. In addition to ongoing training and development opportunities, we are committed to providing an environment in which you can thrive.
Why work for us? We have challenges as a Trust, but we have ambitious aspirations, are pushing ahead with exciting transformation work and we need dedicated individuals to support us on our journey.
Why Norfolk? The people here are warm and welcoming, we have a beautiful coastline and the Broads National Park. We’re an hour and a half away from London and have an international airport in Norwich too. Our villages, towns and cities are packed full of history, independent cafes, shops, and theatres. We have excellent shopping, eating out, top ranking schooling and affordable house prices too.
