Area Counsellor Specialist/Psychotherapist/Psychological therapist (equiv NHS AFC Band 7) (multiple roles available)

Location: London or West/Southwest of England

Salary: band 7 AFC equivalent

Discipline: counselling, psychotherapy

Contract: permanent

Hours: flexible

Do you want to help aspiring counsellors learn and grow?

We’ve got two exciting opportunities, one predominantly within the West/South West of England (Gloucestershire, West Berkshire and available on 0.8 WTE basis/30 hours a week) and the other predominantly within our London counselling services (Harrow, Brent, Redbridge, Barking & Dagenham, Merton and available on a full-time basis/37.5 hours a week). Both roles are available as hybrid.

The Roles

We are looking for registered (BACP/UKCP/HCPC/BABCP) and experienced counsellor specialists/psychotherapists/psychological therapists, who are interested in a supervisory role, working across our Via services.

The role will provide leadership, playing a key role in shaping culture and processes. As part of a multi-disciplinary team, the post holder will support our volunteer counsellors to provide safe and effective interventions through regular supervision, work alongside other psychological professionals to deliver a stepped care model for those experiencing psychological distress, and support the counselling service to grow and innovate.

This well supported post is ideal for therapists seeking to step into a leadership position whilst continuing to grow diverse skills that contribute to trauma-informed working. We offer:

- Opportunities for expanding and refining competencies, training and supervision (such as EMDR)

- Tailoring roles to the person’s interests, including opportunities to work in other parts of the service

- Hybrid working

- To see the generous range of benefits we offer at Via including 30 days annual leave for all new starters, our health and wellbeing initiatives, financial perks and development opportunities – visit our Benefits Package 

Via offers community and residential services for substance use. We nurture new ideas, put co-production at the heart of what we do, and provide therapists with the support to explore and grow.

For an informal chat about the roles please contact Dr Michelle O’Sullivan, Head of Psychology via michelle.osullivan@viaorg.uk

The closing date for applications is Sunday 13 October 2024 at midnight.

Interviews are likely to take place on Thursday 24 October for the West/Southwest role and 31 October for the London role.
