St Peter’s Hospice are looking for experienced Band 7 Senior Psychological Therapists to join their Psychological Therapies Team (PTT).
The Psychological Therapy team works with adults and children, individually and in groups. We work face to face with our patients and clients, in our therapy rooms, in their homes or on the inpatient unit as well as remotely. The team are supported by a dedicated group of volunteers so there is the opportunity for formal and informal supervision.
We are looking for therapists with energy, enthusiasm, and experience of working in a dynamic team. You will be an excellent and empathetic communicator who is a supportive team member. Someone who can work with others to develop services, work dynamically in the ever-changing mental health landscape and support, and educate the organisation with psychologically informed practice. You will be qualified to work with adults and children.
The work the team does can be challenging; supporting those affected by the psychological effects of an incurable illness and bereavement. These individuals might be living with existing mental health challenges as well as complex social circumstances. We are looking for someone who feels they will be able to flourish and contribute to this challenging context.
What we can offer you:
* Salary: Band 7 – competitive with NHS pay scales.
* 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday, but for the right candidate we will consider 30 hours
* Based at the hospice in Brentry but you will also be working in localities and in the community
This is a chance to make a difference and work in a supportive and collaborative environment.
Interviews will take place on Wednesday the 6th of May at our Brentry site. We ask anyone applying to be sure they are available on this date.
