Our Vision is Brilliant, Beautiful and Better mental health for all and our mission is to “show up” for all children and young people's mental health in Southwest London.
We are a passionate, relational, humanistic organization that works hard to provide compassionate and high-quality mental health support at the point that young people need it rather than at the point of availability. We provide a range of mental health services to children and young people including Talking therapies, online therapeutic support, a young carers service, therapeutic support to young refugees and asylum seekers, young people in the youth justice system and those impacted by serious youth violence. Since the pandemic we have increasingly focused on ensuring that we are “all back in” and we love working in the communities in which young people live.
We are inspired and energized by young people themselves and continue to develop and shape our services around the ever-changing mental health needs of young people. We are 100 % committed to diversity and inclusion in these challenging times. We are currently looking for a range of dynamic and passionate professionals who can work thoughtfully and sensitively with young people in our diverse team of experienced and committed professionals.
One final thing you should know. Theres lots of research that shows how marginalized groups may not apply for jobs unless they meet 100% of the qualifications. We also know that mental health practitioners come from a wide range of backgrounds with rich personal and professional experiences that might not seem standard and that's okay! We really value people who bring unique perspectives and add new knowledge to our team.
