Job description

Help people find their way through the emotional impact of sight loss

Losing your sight can affect much more than what you can see. It can change your confidence, relationships, independence and how you feel about the future. Having someone who listens can make a real difference.

At Vision Support, we’re looking for a qualified counsellor to offer that space - helping people affected by sight loss explore difficult feelings, adjust to change and work towards what matters to them.

For 150 years, Vision Support has supported people living with sight loss. Join us as we continue that work across North East Wales, Cheshire and Halton.

A role with space to focus on counselling

We want you to have the time to build effective therapeutic relationships and give clients your full attention.

You’ll manage your own counselling caseload, with time within your contracted hours for preparation, notes, clinical supervision and reflection. Your workload will be agreed and regularly reviewed with your manager to support safe, sustainable practice.

You don’t need to have worked with people affected by sight loss before. We welcome relevant experience from other counselling settings and will provide vision impairment awareness training to help you adapt your existing skills.
