Job Introduction At Turning Point, we are recognised leaders in supporting people to recover from addiction and regain control of their lives. Our work spans substance use, learning disabilities and mental health, and we focus on providing timely, person centred support. By ensuring people can access the help they need through a single point of contact, we have grown into one of the largest providers of substance use services across England and Wales. We are now seeking a skilled and compassionate HCPC registered Clinical, Counselling or Forensic Psychologist to support the effective delivery of psycho social interventions across our Southwest MHTR services, covering Swindon, Somerset and North Somerset. Our Primary Mental Health Treatment Requirement (MHTR) service offers individuals within the Criminal Justice System an opportunity to engage in psycho social interventions as an alternative to custodial sentences. It forms part of a national network of psychology led MHTR services. Turning Point's MHTR approach places strong emphasis on tailoring support to each individual, drawing on evidence based interventions to develop personalised treatment plans. To ensure the consistent delivery of high quality, evidence-based interventions, we prioritise regular clinical supervision and the use of standardised outcome measures across the team. This is a full time, fixed term position for 12 months based in our North Somerset service. Role Responsibility You will provide clinical supervision, guidance and training to a team of Senior Assistant and Assistant Psychologists who deliver psycho social interventions to individuals subject to a Mental Health Treatment Requirement (MHTR). You will draw on your expertise to further develop the innovative approaches used within Turning Point's MHTR services, ensuring they align with nationally agreed standards and evidence based practice. Alongside operational colleagues, you will contribute to the effective governance of the Southwest MHTR services and offer thoughtful, evidence informed advice to colleagues, local agencies and partner organisations. You will receive supervision from a Forensic Psychologist who serves as the Southwest MHTR Clinical Lead, who is in turn supported by the National MHTR Lead, a Consultant Clinical Psychologist. Supporting, developing and coordinating the team will be a core part of your role. You will help Senior Assistant and Assistant Psychologists, as well as Peer Support Workers, to strengthen their psychological formulation skills and embed a trauma informed approach within their practice. At times, you may also hold a small caseload, providing specialist psychological assessments and therapeutic interventions. Beyond day to day delivery, you will play a key role in shaping the strategic direction and ongoing development of the service. This will include building strong professional links with other statutory and voluntary service providers and using your expertise to develop meaningful support networks for our clients. You will also explore ways to continuously improve our services and integrate wider issues - housing, employment and finances, for example - into the overall treatment process. You will also have the opportunity to work closely with our large national team of Clinical, Counselling and Forensic Psychologists to further develop psychological and psycho social approaches across services, while continuing to grow your own expertise within a therapeutic specialism aligned with service needs. The Ideal Candidate Applicants must hold current HCPC registration as a Clinical, Counselling or Forensic Psychologist and a doctoral qualification in their professional specialism. The post holder will demonstrate competence in delivering psychological assessment, formulation, and evidence based interventions for individuals with complex and multifaceted presentations. Experience of providing clinical supervision as well as consultation to multidisciplinary professionals is essential; formal training in supervision, while not mandatory, is desirable. The successful candidate will bring excellent communication skills, professional adaptability, and a clear understanding of clinical governance frameworks, making a meaningful contribution as a vital member of the clinical leadership team. About us As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer. We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people.

Do you want to help build a brighter future for communities and individuals in Taunton doing a highly rewarding job. Turning Point's drug & alcohol services are currently expanding during a really exciting time in the sector with new funding and investment. We have a range of roles for people passionate about supporting others to make change. We have roles in different teams including: Community based treatment services: providing assessment, coordinating treatment and working partnership to support individuals. The roles include delivering structured psycho-social interventions in group and one to one level to enable our service users to acquire thinking skills and behaviours to make lasting change. Homeless outreach provision: Targeting homeless individuals, offering a flexible and outreach response to highly vulnerable individuals sleeping rough or living in temporary accommodation Criminal Justice rehabilitation/recovery services: working closely with the Probation Services, Prisons and Police to provide a rapid, tailored response to individuals that support their recovery and rehabilitation As a Recovery Worker we offer a starting salary of £25,116 rising each year in line with our pay progression salary bands, rising to £29,383 per year. (Dependent on experience you may be offered a starting salary above the initial starting salary). You will have opportunities to progress your career with a structured learning journey and clearly defined career pathways that will enable you to achieve your long term goals and work to your strengths. Whether you are looking to progress into a management and leadership role or to be a specialist in your field as an Advanced Substance Use Practitioner at Turning point we will support and encourage you on your career journey. Role Responsibility Recovery workers act as 'key workers' to a caseload of service users, supporting them to decide their goals around treatment and develop plans to achieve these. The role includes maintaining regular contact with your clients, offering advice, information and psycho-social interventions as well as providing assessments, risk management planning and working closely with our clinical staff around prescribing needs and partner agencies. No day is the same in this role but an ability to communicate effectively with a range or service users and colleagues, an ability to manage different tasks and a commitment to Turning Point values are essential. You may have lived experience of substance use/mental health/homelessness (self or a significant other), come with experience supporting people in health and social care or just have a keen interest in supporting this group; if your values are right, we have a role for everyone. The Ideal Candidate You'll have an understanding of substance and alcohol use and the challenges and opportunities for individuals on a recovery journey. However, we also recognise that many people have transferrable skills from other backgrounds such as mental health, housing or other health and social care provision.

We also look for candidates with excellent communication skills and who share our values as an organisation. We value individuals with lived experience but also those who are just interested in this line of work; our Trainee Recovery Worker program enables individuals without all relevant experience to gain an entry level position within the organisation before moving on to other roles. We value individual creativity and initiative and, whatever your role, you will be fully involved in identifying opportunities to improve the quality of our services and the service user experience. Your ideas will be listened to and your suggestions implemented wherever possible. You will be supported in your role by extensive training to help develop your skills. Our learning culture encourages everyone to stay on top of the latest developments in their field and helps drive service improvement.
