We have an exciting opportunity to join our Clinical Referral Team! (remote working)
Vita Health Group and Insight IAPT are delighted to be launching a new clinical partnership, bringing together over 40 years of mental health experience, to support individuals and communities across Nottinghamshire. We are looking for pioneering, skilled clinicians to join us on this exciting journey and play a central role in shaping the delivery of NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression across the region.
The Clinical Referral Team centrally supports our local teams and are responsible for delivering waiting list initiatives, providing therapy for complex cases to ensure patients start their treatment as quickly as possible, managing risk on access and supporting risk arising for patients who are enrolled on centrally coordinated interventions. Practitioners working as part of this team deliver a broad and interesting range of interventions.
We are seeking a qualified PWP to be part of this Clinical Referral Team. You will be line managed by a PWP Team Lead, work alongside Senior PWPs and a Registered Mental Health Nurse, and be supported by our experienced Service Managers and Clinical Leads.
You will use your skills and expertise to provide disorder specific assessments, evidence-based low intensity CBT interventions and risk management and support. You will offer a wide range of treatments, including telephone and online treatment, computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) programmes, psycho-educational groups, courses, workshops, webinars, and one-to-one work.
We are looking for dynamic, compassionate clinicians who want to work in a progressive team, to drive positive patient experiences and improve access rates across all of our services.
