Assistant Psychologist-Jobs in Saudi-Arabien

Are you a registered Clinical or Counselling Psychologist with a passion for providing exceptional care?

We are looking for an enthusiastic and committed Senior Clinical Psychologist to join our well-established and dynamic Hospital Liaison Psychiatry service. This is a key role within the senior clinical team within the Liaison service.

It is fantastic time to join the Liaison Psychiatry service as we are developing our services to CORE24!

Flexible work patterns available. Part time applications will be considered.

The Liaison psychiatry service aims to provide mental health advice and support to individuals receiving care and treatment at general hospitals in Kent and Medway. The general hospital staff can refer anyone over the age of 18 who attends A&E or is an inpatient on a medical or surgical ward. The liaison team can then offer advice, support or a full mental and psychological health assessment as appropriate. By ensuring that an individual's physical and mental health are considered holistically, it is possible for the whole healthcare team to ensure the most effective care is delivered in a collaborative way.

As a Senior Clinical/Counselling Psychologist in our Liaison Service you will be responsible for offering high quality assessment and brief interventions with a specific focus on people in distress, related to both mental and physical health conditions.

This is an exciting, varied role with opportunity for consultation, supervision of other practitioners, facilitation of reflective practice and teaching staff in the multi-disciplinary and hospital team.

You will have plenty of scope and support to develop your own practice, whilst supporting the team in balancing the challenges of providing flexible high-quality services, in a way that delivers quick effective access and meets the expectations of patients, carers and the public.

You will have a doctorate-level or equivalent BPS approved qualification in Clinical/Counselling psychology, with experience in a range of clinical settings, able to support people in acute distress and will hold HCPC registration.

Come and work with us in the Garden of England where we combine exceptional professional development opportunities with a tremendous quality of life.
