This is a newly created leadership role within the Greenwich ADAPT (Anxiety, Depression, Personality Disorder and Trauma) Secondary Care team. You will be joining a diverse team of psychologists, psychotherapists and CBT therapists.

Our primary interventions at present are primarily (short and long term) group based and include MBT, CBT, Psychotherapy as well as the team approach of SCM. We offer a small amount of EMDR in the service, which we are expanding. 

We hope to set up a DBT service in the Autumn and this post holder will act as the Clinical Lead for this and so experience in Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy  or DBT would be desirable but not essential.  The post holder will lead on the development and evaluation of this pilot DBT service. 

The post holder will also be responsible for supporting the consultant clinical psychologist with managing Response To Treatment times of 18 weeks from referral to treatment as well as holding a clinical caseload. 

Other leadership opportunities will be available such as representing ADAPT psychology at business meetings.
