Are you looking for a rewarding opportunity to use your experience as a Psychologist to support vulnerable adults in Bristol? The ACE Clinical Psychologist provides clinical leadership to the service as well as delivering therapy in a psychologically-led, trauma-informed mental health engagement service. The ACE service provides home- or community-based support/social interventions and location-based therapy for people who would otherwise need statutory mental health services, but who experience barriers such as multiple/chronic exclusion, complex trauma, personality disorder, and so-called 'chaotic behaviours' that would likely make current statutory services inaccessible for them.
Responsibilities- Provide clinical leadership for the service.
- Lead, line manage and deliver the therapy aspect of the service.
- Lead and provide psychological assessments, formulations and interventions in group and one-to-one settings.
- Work in close partnership with the Service Manager and other managers to ensure that all aspects of the service are fully psychologically informed.
This post is offered on a part time basis (30 hours per week), to include Tuesdays and Fridays, with other days to be agreed.
Qualifications- Passion for working with individuals and groups who face inequalities in accessing substance use and/or mental health services and for developing services that are fully responsive to their needs.
- Experience in supporting staff (psychologists and/or non-qualified staff) who are working with clients who experience complex trauma, substance use and homelessness – to foster psychological ideas and interventions.
- Hold a doctorate level qualification in Clinical or Counselling Psychology and be eligible for or hold chartered status with the BPS.
