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.

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.
