There is currently a vacant Band 7 to Band 8a preceptorship psychological therapist role based in the Inpatient Forensic Psychology service across the Bracton Centre and Memorial Hospital. You will work with a team of psychological therapists and multi-professional mental health colleagues to embed psychologically informed care in the service. You will be based on a ward, but also have input into cross-service psychological activities including the group programme.
As well as holding a clinical caseload in the secure setting, another significant aspect of the role is providing input to the community psychology service based at the William Morris Centre (DA2 7AF). This is a psychological assessment and intervention service that specialises in working with people in the community who are seeking interventions to address their difficulties with interpersonal functioning and risk of harm to others.
You will promote an environment in which therapeutic relationships facilitate safety and change, by offering psychological perspectives and emotional support to nursing teams, and promoting psychological thinking in teams. You should have interests in working with psychosis and complex trauma where there is associated risk, including providing direct psychological assessments and interventions, engaging with families and loved ones and working in multi-disciplinary and multi-agency contexts with other mental health disciplines and with other agencies.
Further to the above, you will supervise and manage pre-qualified staff, supervise psychological interventions delivered by MDT colleagues, and supervise psychology students and doctoral trainees. Supervision training will be provided as required.
