Job Description

Clinical Psychologist, Band 7 We are looking for an enthusiastic, committed and skilled Clinical Psychologist to join our team at Barnet CAMHS and work within the neurodevelopmental pathway. CAMHS in Barnet is facing an exciting and key point in its development; embracing the development and delivery of high-quality evidence-based treatment models and care pathways to help address the needs of children and young people in Barnet in a responsive and timely manner. The team is committed to an inclusive approach to these changes in order to get the best and most effective help for the most vulnerable young people in Barnet. BEH as a Trust has adopted the Thrive model of Service delivery in CAMHS and Enablement as a guiding influence in all we do. It is a strengths-based model of care, underpinned by principles of self-help and independence, focusing on keeping people well and preventing the need for higher-level care if possible. Our goal is to support people to "Live Love Do", that is have a secure and safe place to live, family, friends and relationship (love), and value-based work or a role in life that improves our wellbeing ('do'). Ultimately, it is about encouraging people who seek help to have the freedom to the best life they possibly can - a life beyond diagnosis. The successful post holder will have a 'can do' and flexible attitude so that they can successfully integrate and contribute to our dynamic service. They will have experience of working with children and young people, offering psychological assessment, formulation and interventions within a generic CAMH setting. The warm and welcoming CAMHS team has a range of highly experienced clinicians who will be available to supervise and support the post holder. The post holder will receive regular supervision in line with BPS guidelines. The post holder will have access to the free Psychology CPD programme running in the Trust. Barnet is a socioeconomically and multicultural diverse area making it a fascinating and rewarding place to work.
