Are you looking for a new role as a clinical psychologist in CAMHS and have a dedication to offering services for children and young people?
We have an opportunity for a Highly Specialist Counselling/Clinical Psychologist within our Core Team in Solar. The Core Team is an integral part of the Solar service.
Solar provides emotional wellbeing and mental health services to Children, Young People and Families in Solihull (0-18).
Solar was set up as a service not about thresholds or tiers but about timely access to appropriate support in line with children and young people's needs. Solar aims to create a comprehensive system, designed around the needs of children and young people.
The main base for this post will be at Bishop Wilson Clinic in Chelmsley Wood. However, there may be occasions when you are required to work from other bases, including the Solar base at Fresh Fields Clinic in Knowle.
