Assistant Clinical Psychologist

We pride ourselves on using evidence-based practice in our work and on collecting outcome data to generate our own practice-based evidence to promote learning, development and wider dissemination. We are part of the Children, Families and Young Peoples service line in NSFT and will be working with services working with young people (aged 14 to 25 years) both within NSFT and across the wider, integrated care system. We value learning in practice and are keen to include service-user perspectives more as we develop the project. We also have strong links with sleep research colleagues at UEA and are keen to support further learning and research on sleep and youth mental health.

The post offers a rare opportunity to develop clinical skills in a specialist area alongside developing practical research and service evaluation skills working as part of a wider service implementation programme. The role will involve liaising with clinicians from multiple teams across the wider youth mental health system, offering the post-holder a detailed understanding of the wider context of mental health provision. We have strong links with UEA and often host both service-related projects and doctoral theses which the post-holder would be able to support. Regular clinical supervision will be provided.
