Job Summary

Tower Hamlets Talking Therapies is looking to recruit full-time, enthusiastic, and motivated Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners to join our dynamic and innovative service.

Based in East London, we have provided psychological therapy services to general practice and the local community for over 30 years. We are a stepped care service offering evidence-based interventions at Steps 2 and 3. Our team consists of Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners, Cognitive Behaviour Therapists, and Clinical & Counselling Psychologists. As a service, we actively encourage different theoretical interests and offer specialist areas of development such as LTC/Eating Disorders/Perinatal.

This post involves:

• Providing low-intensity interventions from a range of CBT-based self-management interventions for clients with mild to moderate anxiety and depression
• Working with people from different cultural backgrounds and ages, using interpreters when necessary
• Involvement in Group and Community Engagement work

We have a firm commitment to CPD and offer high-quality supervision as well as the opportunity to participate in team initiatives. The team works closely with a variety of trained professionals across a range of therapeutic orientations, DIT, Systemic, IPT, CBT, and Psychodynamic.

Main duties of the job

The post-holder will work within the IAPT service, providing high volume, low intensity interventions, which will be a range of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) based self-management interventions to the service to clients with mild to moderate anxiety and depression.

The post holder will work with people with different cultural backgrounds and ages, using interpreters when necessary, and should be committed to equal opportunities.

Psychological Well-being Practitioners provide assessment, triage, treatment, and mental health promotion activities within primary care and community settings, for people experiencing common mental health problems in the self-management of their recovery. Treatment programmes are designed to aid clinical improvement and social inclusion – including return to work and meaningful activity or other occupational activities, with the aim to enable service users to manage their own difficulties and reach their maximum potential.

PWPs do this by providing information and support for evidence-based low-intensity psychological interventions. These interventions place a greater emphasis on patient self-management and are less burdensome than traditional psychological treatments. Examples include guided self-help, which may be delivered via face-to-face or telephone sessions, and computerised cognitive-behavioural therapy.
