Company Description
Branches (Waltham Forest Churches Night Shelter Ltd) is a registered charity that provides support and resettlement services for single people experiencing homelessness in Walthamstow, London. The organisation operates a 27-bed purpose-built hostel, offering accommodation for adults aged 18 to 65 years for up to 18 months. Branches also manages a move-on property in Waltham Forest for individuals ready to progress from the hostel but not yet prepared for fully independent living. Through innovative and person-centred support, Branches helps residents make sustainable changes and address the root causes of homelessness. The overall aim is to support people to move on to successful, stable, independent living after their stay.
We are recruiting for a dynamic individual who will provide integrative therapy for residents in our hostel and for service users who have moved to our second-stage accommodation, ‘Stepping Stones’. This role will suit a practitioner who works confidently within evidence-based, structured therapeutic models and who is comfortable delivering both individual and group-based therapy.
