Are you looking for a rewarding opportunity to use your experience as a Psychologist to support vulnerable adults in Bristol?
St Mungo’s Assertive Contact and Engagement (ACE) Service works with people with mental health needs who face barriers to support, and are not actively engaged with other mental health services. We operate across Bristol supporting people and communities that may have had difficulty accessing services that fully meet their needs in the past.
Working within St Mungo’s ACE team offers a unique opportunity to work creatively, and shape the provision for clients while working alongside another Clinical Psychologist.
The ACE Clinical Psychologist provides clinical leadership to the service as well as delivering therapy in a psychologically-led, trauma-informed mental health engagement service. The ACE service provides home- or community-based support/social interventions and location-based therapy for people who would otherwise need statutory mental health services, but who experience barriers such as multiple/chronic exclusion, complex trauma, personality disorder, and so-called ‘chaotic behaviours’ that would likely make current statutory services inaccessible for them. Key aspects of the role include:
- Provide clinical leadership for the service
- Lead, line manage and deliver the therapy aspect of the service.
- Lead and provide psychological assessments, formulations and interventions in group and one-to-one settings.
- Work in close partnership with the Service Manager and other managers to ensure that all aspects of the service are fully psychologically informed.
This post is offered on a part time basis (30 hours per week), to include Tuesdays and Fridays, with other days to be agreed.
About you
We are looking for a Psychologist with a passion for working with individuals and groups who face inequalities in accessing substance use and / or mental health services; and for developing services that are fully responsive to their needs.
You will also be experienced in supporting staff (psychologists and/or non-qualified staff) who are working with clients who experience complex trauma, substance use and homelessness – to foster psychological ideas and interventions.
You will hold a doctorate level qualification in Clinical or Counselling Psychology and be eligible for or hold chartered status with BPS.
