The Role 

Day to day you will provide a comprehensive range of mental health
services for individuals in the community. The clinical skills you may bring
to the role will work in achieving an optimal state of personal, social and

You will achieve this by working with them to identify barriers to optimal
functioning through interventions that focus on enhancing existing skills,
creating opportunities, promoting wellness, remediating or restoring skills,
modifying or adapting the environment or activity, and preventing relapse.

Depending where you’re based, we’ll tailor your caseload to
service clients around you to minimise your travel. Our team balance

depression; dissociative (conversion) disorder; sleep problems and OCD. 

You will be competent in writing comprehensive reports based on your
advanced clinical understanding, application of various clinical
assessments and implementation of appropriate interventions to address
prioritised needs. You will also have experience in conducting functional
behavioural assessments, gathering behaviour data, and developing
positive behavioural support plans (with and without the use of restrictive
practice) for people with disability.

To really excel within this role, you will:

• Participate in regular discipline specific and MDT meetings to debrief,
  share ideas/ resources and to receive training
• Build relationships and establish rapport not only with clients but also
  their families or carers where appropriate
• Be able to work collaboratively within a MDT and with stakeholders
  contributing to and reliant on the use of Positive Behaviour Support
  Plans
• Feel a sense of satisfaction from seeing your clients making progress
• Enjoy the freedom, flexibility and the range of experiences that come
  with working in the community
