Group Psychotherapist (15 – 22.5 hours per week)
We are looking for an experienced group psychotherapist to join our team to help us build on our current services to survivors. This will include a mix of psychotherapy group work, psychoeducation groups, initial assessments, and some individual psychotherapy work.
The successful candidate will be passionate and committed to helping survivors of trauma and abuse to overcome adversity and make a full recovery. They will already have a track record of working with trauma survivors within a group setting, and navigating the challenges of working with complex emotional needs. They will be resilient, and will have the ability to engage with clients in a way that is authentic, empowering and adapted to their individual needs. They will be willing to challenge limiting or disempowering assumptions, attitudes and behaviours; not only within the client, but within themselves and the wider social context.

- Experience of working with survivors of trauma and abuse, with a particular emphasis on clients who are dissociative and/or who have other complex mental health needs.
