Overview
We're recruiting a Senior Clinical/Counselling Psychologist to join our Urgent Care Pathway in Buckinghamshire. Working clinically within the Crisis Resolution and Home Treatment Team (CRHTT). You will be based in Aylesbury but may be requested to support service users alongside the High Wycombe team. You will be expected to provide direct interventions including assessment and formulation and brief psychological therapy, and indirect interventions supporting the CRHTT. There may be scope to embark upon slightly longer courses of intervention if that would more effectively prepare service users to access the next stage of their psychological therapy pathway. The role will require you to work with service users directly face to face and support psychosocial intervention work of colleagues, and as the Senior Psychologist you will be supporting service users at a crucial point in their lives. This is a rewarding and creative role with potential to have a significant positive impact on a person's life.

* Clinical Leadership: Provide clinical leadership within the CRHTT, ensuring model fidelity and best practice adoption
* Psychological Assessment and Intervention: Conduct highly specialised psychological assessments and interventions for adults with severe and/or complex mental health difficulties

* Research and Governance: Utilise research skills for audit, policy, service development, and propose policy changes impacting the team
