By providing the right support at the right time, and making sure that people can find all the help they need through a single point of contact, we have grown into one of the largest providers of substance misuse services in England and Wales. Right now, we are now looking for a talented Chartered Clinical, Counselling or Forensic Psychologist to ensure the effective management, development and delivery of all psycho-social interventions within newly formed MHTR team based within our substance misuse services in LLR. This newly established Primary Mental Health Treatment Requirement service offers an opportunity to people in the criminal justice system to be offered psycho-social interventions as an alternative to custodial sentences. It is one of a national network of MHTRs which are psychology-led. Turning Point MHTR services emphasize a bespoke approach to each client, drawing on a number of evidence-based interventions to plan treatment programmes for each client. For this reason we emphasize regular supervision of the team to ensure delivery of high quality and bespoke interventions and use of standardized outcome measures. Role Responsibility You will offer clinical guidance, training and leadership to a team of Senior Assistant and Assistant Psychologists who facilitate psycho-social interventions with individuals on a Mental Health Treatment Requirement. You will use your expertise to build on a range of innovative approaches developed within other Turning Point MHTR services, working closely with their Clinical Lead under the supervision of a Consultant Clinical Psychologist. In addition to being responsible for the systematic governance of the Leicestershire MHTR service alongside operational colleagues, you will offer practical advice on evidence-based psychological interventions to colleagues as well as local agencies and organisations.

You will be invited to work with our national team of Clinical, Counselling and Forensic Psychologists to develop psychological and psycho-social approaches used across services and to further develop your career in a therapeutic specialism that fits with service needs. The Ideal Candidate Along with up to date registration through the Health and Social Professions Council (HCPC) as a Clinical, Counselling or Forensic Psychologist, you will need a doctorate in your professional specialism and proven ability to deliver psychological services.
