We have an exciting opportunity for a family therapist within our leading-edge adult eating disorder services
The service supports both the direct work with adults and their families on the adult specialist eating disorder unit and supports with the integrated eating disorder care pathways. We are looking for an experienced family therapist who is interested in working in this fascinating area. Please note you do not need to have experience in eating disorders as we will provide support and training to develop this specialist knowledge.
The successful candidate will work closely with the multi-disciplinary team on the ward in the delivery of evidence-based psychological systemic therapies.
Avalon Ward
Avalon ward is a 15-bedded unit for adults suffering with severe eating disorders, often at a very low weight and there is a high level of co-morbidity with other conditions. The team is a recovery-focused service, working with patients on the goal of discharging safely back to their local community services where they can continue to work towards recovery. The team is made up of nurses, healthcare assistants, psychiatrist, dieticians, occupational therapists, social worker, psychologists, and peer support workers.
