Lincoln, Louth, and Gainsborough have an exciting opportunity within our Mental Health Support Teams (MHST), based in the Gainsborough Team and supporting NHS and Education-approved sites across these areas.

You must have the appropriate qualifications and be affiliated with BPS or BABCP. This is not a trainee role. We are looking for an experienced and supportive colleague to join our team. You will have access to clinical skills, supervision, and peer support. We provide support across schools and educational sites in Lincoln, Louth, and Gainsborough, so access to a car or transportation is necessary.

The role involves delivering evidence-based interventions for children and young people in educational settings with mild to moderate mental health issues, helping those with more severe problems access specialist services quickly, supporting staff in education settings to identify and manage mental health and wellbeing issues, working within education environments to improve access to specialist mental health services, and using your skills and knowledge to deliver a service that complements existing initiatives within these environments.

The Mental Health Support Teams are jointly delivered by NHS and Department of Education and are sited. They aim to provide CBT informed early interventions for mild to moderate mental health and emotional wellbeing issues.
