At Help for Heroes, we believe those who serve our country deserve support when they are wounded. Every day, men and women have to leave their career in the Armed Forces as a result of physical or psychological wounds; their lives changed forever. We help them, and those still serving, to recover and get on with their lives.
And who are we you’re wondering? We are experts and beginners. Generalists and specialists. Ordinary people with an extraordinary passion towards making a positive change to the lives of our veterans (and having fun while doing it).
As One Team we share a philosophy – I.C.A.R.E. It’s the way we walk and talk, the way we interact with others and how we approach everything we do. We are:
Innovative – Collaborative – Authentic – Resourceful – Energetic.
We have an incredible opportunity for a High Intensity CBT Therapist to join our Hidden Wounds team.
Please see below for more information on what just might be your future role.
About The Role
The Hidden Wounds Service is a developing, multi-disciplinary, evidenced based psychological therapy service working with veterans, their families and loved ones. We have recently been accredited by the Royal College of Psychiatrists QNVMHS. As a high intensity therapist within the service, you would be able to develop expertise working with veterans and their families presenting with a range of common mental health problems. You will receive supervision from an accredited CBT therapist / supervisor and will work closely in a multi-disciplinary environment with other parts of the charity providing case management for welfare related issues and social and medical support to our beneficiaries.
The Hidden Wounds Service is a growing remote service consisting of PWP’s, accredited counsellors and accredited CBT therapists. In addition to clinical supervision, you will receive regular peer support and attend reflective practice forums making it a great place for a therapist to develop their clinical skills. The wellbeing of staff is an important part of Help for Heroes culture and you will work a 35-hour week and have variation and flexibility within your role. Therapists will co-deliver psychoeducational online courses in conjunction with Help for Heroes Recovery College and will work towards a City and Guilds qualification to support them in this.

The Bexley SHiFT Practice is a collaboration between SHiFT Organisation ltd (a registered Charity) and Children’s Services at the London Borough of Bexley. SHiFT exists to break the destructive cycle of children caught up in, or at risk of, crime and associated behaviour. Following a successful pilot, we are expanding.
The SHiFT Practice works with children and young people up to the age of 25 for whom things are getting worse, not better. SHiFT offers children an intensive, 18-month, needs and strengths-led, therapeutic relationship. Investing time enables SHiFT to create trust, build stability and provide consistency. Working as highly skilled, multidisciplinary teams of professionals, SHiFT gets alongside young people who are among the most vulnerable and causing the most harm to themselves and others. We start from wherever a young person is, working systemically with them, their family, friends, and community (including all statutory professionals in their lives) to develop high trust, culturally competent and strengths-driven relationships that catalyse pro-social change.
We know that change is difficult. We also know that young people in conflict with the law have complex and overlapping education, health, and social care needs, and that offending behaviours can mask significant and underlying vulnerabilities. Recognising this, SHiFT uses Breaking Cycles and commits to doing whatever it takes to break destructive cycles of harm and trauma. Unconstrained by age, geographic or professional boundaries, SHiFT starts with aspiration and belief in the young people in our care.
For the position of guide, we are looking for a highly skilled practitioner, with significant experience of working with adolescents. Whether your background is in social care, education, health, youth justice or the voluntary sector you will have experience of delivering successful change through evidence-based approaches with children and young people who present with a range of complex needs. You will be able to work flexibly and independently with limited management oversight. You will need to have outstanding communication and interpersonal skills and bring experience of working in a multi-disciplinary context.
