The Wellbeing Service is part of the national IAPT programme, aimed at helping people across Suffolk aged 16 and over, who are suffering with mild to moderately severe anxiety and depression.
You will be accredited with BABCP or eligible for and working towards accreditation with the BABCP.
We want patients and staff to recommend our organisation as a place where they would be happy for their friends and family to be treated. You can help us do this by bringing your skills, experience and commitment to The Wellbeing Service.
The Wellbeing Service is expanding, and we work closely with community colleagues to support people living with Long Term Conditions as well as our core work. We will offer evidence-based psychological treatments to help individuals live well with their condition and strengthen links with key physical health colleagues in our area. Additional training in working with Long Term Conditions will be provided.
Main duties of the job
You will provide high-intensity interventions to a range of adults with anxiety, depression, and trauma-related problems. You will receive regular supervision as well as in-service training and CPD days that ensure your continued learning and development. This is an opportunity to join an established team of Psychological Therapists providing a range of NICE compliant treatments at Step 3. You will work as part of a multi-disciplinary team.
Experience of working in Primary Care will be an advantage. As well as 1:1 work, you may be expected to co-facilitate group interventions. For the delivery of group work, we provide training and additional support, should you need it.
As a Band 7 therapist, you will contribute to the ongoing development and evaluation of the service.
The post will be based in one of our sites in Ipswich or Bury St Edmunds, dependent on the applicant's location; however, there is a requirement to work across Suffolk as required. Treatments are currently being delivered digitally and remotely from home as well as face-to-face treatment provision in clinical spaces across the county. There will therefore be an expectation to work a hybrid model of set days at home and set days from a clinic setting.
