We have an exciting  opportunity for  a Preceptorship Band 7 Clinical Psychologist  to join AEDimhs (Adult Eating Disorder Integrated Mental Health Service). This post aims to support the clinician to develop to an 8a position within the team. 

AEDimhs is a newly established low medical risk eating disorder service working within Primary care. You would be working with a supportive, motivated and energetic team as we further our service development across Surrey Heartlands and Frimley South.

We are seeking to find a psychologist who wants to make a difference by providing high quality NICE concordant Eating Disorder interventions to patients aged 18 years plus.

You will need to be a Clinical Psychologist with a keen interest in supporting people with a range of eating disorders, with a particular focus on early intervention and prevention.

The introduction of this team is part of a wider transformation and expansion of community-based Specialist mental health services set out in the NHS Long Term Plan.
