Therapist/Psychotherapist

This is an exciting opportunity to make a difference to the lives of children and families within the Leeds area, working with staff in schools, as well as a range of professionals including counsellors, emotional well-being workers and family outreach workers. Our schools have considerable experience, and appreciation, of therapists as members of their team. The role will involve providing a range of therapeutic services, including consultation, assessment, short/long-term individual and dyadic therapy with children and their parents/carers plus attendance at relevant meetings and opportunities for training and work discussion groups within the schools.

We are looking for a therapist with experience of providing psychotherapeutic support to children and families, alongside experience of multi-agency liaison plus a well-developed capacity for autonomous working. An ability to form collaborative working relationships with a wide range of individuals is essential for this role. We welcome applications from individuals with an interest in service development and research in dynamic environments and who can bring innovative and creative ideas to help us extend our developing portfolio.
