• Continuity of working relationships both within the team and with schools.
• Opportunities to use your strengths in both systemic and case work and to develop novel
– and creative ways of working.
• Opportunities to design and deliver training and to facilitate group interventions.
• Scope for direct work with children and young people.
• Regular supervision and peer support as well as a high level of autonomy.
• An office base in Kent or London or the option to work from home.

We are looking for an HCPC registered psychologist who:

• Has excellent interpersonal skills and is highly emotionally literate.
• Is confident, skilled and enthusiastic about designing and
– delivering training. Experience of delivering ELSA training would be an advantage.
• Is skilled and experienced in facilitating group interventions.
