Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust is looking for enthusiastic Assistant Psychologists who are interested in gaining experience in working with children and young people with developmental conditions. The Children and Young People’s ADHD and ASD Service (CYPAAS) offers specialised diagnostic assessments and needs-based interventions for children and young people with these conditions.

The successful candidates will contribute to the assessment (neuropsychological assessments and observations) and research activities of the CYPAAS working under the supervision of a Clinical Psychologist, but will also be encouraged to develop their clinical skills (group and individual work).

Applicants should possess a good Honours degree in Psychology (1st or high 2:1), preferably have experience of working with children and/or adults with developmental conditions, and previous experience as an Assistant Psychologist would also be an advantage.
