Trosolwg o'r swydd

We are looking to recruit several trainee high intensity therapists in our Ealing Talking Therapies team on a one-year, fixed-term contract. We are seeking to recruit people with either a core profession such as Clinical/ Counselling Psychology, mental health nursing, or social work who have experience of working therapeutically with CBT, or experienced PWPs who would like to make the transition to high intensity therapy. High intensity training will take place Royal Holloway, University of London (Paddington campus) two days per week with trainees being on site in Ealing Talking Therapies three days per week. The 12-month High Intensity course provided by the University is recognised for its high quality and we have a strong track record of successfully supporting our trainees through their studies.  You will be studying alongside other colleagues who are also completing the same course and will be guided by our highly knowledgeable and approachable supervisors.  In addition, you will receive support to further develop your skills and career with access to a range of CPD opportunities.
