About the role
Ready to make a real impact with a team that values creativity, passion, and innovation?
We have three exciting opportunities for Practitioner Psychologists and Psychological Therapists to join a dynamic, forward-thinking, and values-driven organisation. This is your chance to help shape the future of service delivery, explore your specialist interests, and drive meaningful system change.
As part of our expanding National Psychological Services Team, you'll have the flexibility and support to develop and tailor our services to meet the evolving needs of the people we work with. If you're looking for a role where your voice matters and your work truly makes a difference; we’d love to hear from you.
We’re looking for someone extraordinary. Could it be you?
You’re community-focused, values-driven, and energised by real connection. You see beyond the chaos, meeting people where they are—even when life has been toughest and traditional support hasn't worked.
In these roles, you’ll bring compassion, creativity, and flexibility to your one-to-one work, while also shaping the bigger picture through clinical supervision, consultation, and reflective practice groups.
This is more than a job—it’s a chance to walk alongside people as they rebuild, reimagine, and reclaim their lives.
You will make a difference by:
* Driving meaningful change by leading on the assessment, formulation, and intervention of complex cases—including delivering highly specialist psychological assessments and trauma-informed interventions for individuals and their wider support networks.
* Delivering cutting-edge care through evidence-based, trauma-responsive interventions that address both problem substance use and co-occurring mental health challenges.
* Inspiring and supporting teams by facilitating reflective practice groups, collaborative team formulations, and psychologically informed approaches that elevate both clinical and non-clinical practice.
* Innovating and co-creating by designing, piloting, and co-facilitating engaging training sessions, therapeutic groups, and reflective practice workshops.
* Guiding excellence by offering expert clinical supervision to a skilled, multi-disciplinary team—fostering growth, resilience, and quality care.
* Leading with purpose by providing local clinical leadership and hands-on supervision for staff, trainees, and volunteers, under the guidance of a Consultant Clinical Psychologist.
* Shaping a thriving team culture by championing psychological safety, shared learning, and mutual support.
* Taking the lead on key areas of service delivery, actively contributing to audits, evaluations, and the continuous evolution of high-impact care.
You will need:
* Doctorate or equivalent as a Clinical, Counselling, Forensic or Health Psychologist accredited by the BPS or Post graduate qualification in CBT, Psychotherapy, psychodynamic therapy or systemic therapy
* Registration as a qualified Practitioner Psychologist by the HCPC or have registration with a Professional Standards Authority (PSA) accredited organisation e.g. accreditation with BACP /UKCP reg (or equivalent).
* Experience in delivering highly specialist psychological assessments.
* Experience of working therapeutically with people who use drugs and alcohol.
* Excellent communication skills, both written and spoken.
* Experience of delivering workshops/training/group-work/reflective practice.

Newly qualified practitioners? We’d love to hear from you. This is a brilliant opportunity to grow your skills, supported by a team that genuinely cares.
Who we are...
Waythrough (Formerly Humankind) launched in October 2024 following the merger of Humankind and Richmond Fellowship. Our vision is to break down the barriers that stop people getting the support they need to live a life they value. We tackle poverty and disadvantage in communities, through mental health, drug and alcohol, housing and related support.
We have almost 200 services around England – and nearly 3,500 amazing staff and volunteers who run them. Every year our services support around 125,000 people.
Bringing together two big organisations is not a small task and it’ll take a while to fully integrate our systems, processes and approaches. That’s why you will notice the jobs here are still branded ‘Humankind’. Next year we’ll be fully integrating our recruitment systems but for now they are separate.
