Making People Better

As a qualified PWP, you have a vital role to play in the service we provide to our clients.

Using your clinical expertise, you will assess the suitability of new referrals through telephone assessments and provide short term, low intensity interventions via telephone, online webinars, and computerised CBT (CCBT). Where needed, you will work closely with colleagues at Steps 3 and 4, and external services, to support safe onward referrals and step ups, at all times maintaining and advocating for patient dignity, confidentiality and inclusivity.

 

Getting to know You

Each PWP brings their own unique skills, background, and experiences to their practice. Alongside this, we are also looking for:

  • A Graduate/Postgraduate Certificate (PGCert) in Low Intensity Interventions (Adults)
  • BABCP or BPS registration or pending registration (if returning to practice and not sure how to meet registration requirements, we are happy to discuss prior to interview)
  • Experience of working with people who have experienced a mental health problem
  • An awareness of and commitment to supporting and facilitating diversity and inclusion

We happily welcome applications from newly qualified practitioners and are always keen to speak to PWPs who are able to work locally within any of our practice areas.

Unable to work within the practice areas? No problem! We also welcome applications from PWPs who wish to work remotely.

If this sounds like the right fit for you, we look forward to welcoming you to the team!
