Responsibilities
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an Assistant Psychologist to join our psychology team within a multidisciplinary drug and alcohol treatment service.
The psychology team provides a direct clinical offer for people experiencing substance use difficulties alongside co-occurring mental health needs. In addition, the team plays a key role in supporting the wider service through the development of psychosocial interventions, psychological consultation, staff support, training, reflective practice, and collaborative working with local mental health services.
Working under the supervision of a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist, you will contribute to the delivery of high-quality, evidence-based psychological care. The role will include undertaking psychological assessments and facilitating therapeutic groups, such as our Managing Emotions Group.

You will also have strong organizational abilities, attention to detail, and confidence working with service data and reporting systems.

We embrace diversity, equality and inclusion as evidenced by our commitment to building a team with a variety of backgrounds, skills, and views.

Our values are to be Compassionate, Open and Bold.
