Trosolwg o'r swydd
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Psychologist to lead a co-produced, innovative mental health and well-being service that is both Psychologically-led and Occupational Therapy (OT)-led called, Step and Thrive. Step and Thrive is for working age adults (18 to 65 years old) who are impacted by severe and enduring mental health issues and is a new pathway being developed as part of the community transformation of adult mental health services. This service will provide accessible, community-based support in the form of psychologically-informed and OT-informed activities, groups and social spaces that address the holistic well-being needs (e.g. emotional, social, occupational, practical, etc) that contribute to poor mental health. This is a co-produced service that blends psychological and OT expertise alongside lived experience to ensure that support is accessible, relevant and effective. The service draws largely on community psychology, narrative, trauma informed and attachment-based principles. The service seeks to create community integration by working alongside community organisations and support people to access relevant and sustainable support outside of the NHS.
