Job Summary
Anna Freud is a world-leading mental health charity for children, young people and their families. Our mission is to close the gap in wellbeing and mental health by advancing, translating, delivering, and sharing the best science and practice with everyone who impacts the lives of children, young people and their families. More information about Anna Freud is available on our website: www.annafreud.org/about-us/.
We value diversity and aim to have diverse workforce that reflects the community and our service users, in line with our vision, values and inclusion commitments. We encourage applications from all sections of the community.
The Postgraduate Diploma in Children and Young People’s Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (CYP IAPT) is a service transformation programme that aims to improve Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) and develop the workforce by recruiting professionals for core and specific skills training. The Autism Spectrum Conditions or Learning Disabilities (ASC/LD) module within the programme aims to develop the specialist workforce needed to meet the needs of children, young people and their families with a diagnosis of autism spectrum conditions or learning disabilities. Students are trained in the fundamental principles of working with this population including behavioural and environmental approaches and adapted CBT-informed interventions for low to moderate intensity anxiety, low mood and behaviour problems.
We are recruiting a Modality Lead to lead a team of tutors to facilitate the delivery of reflective practice tutor groups to enable trainees to develop skills in delivering interventions based on managing behaviours of concern and using adapted CBT when appropriate. The Modality Lead will be responsible for the overall delivery of the modules, teaching sessions, and marking, personal tutoring and make other similar contributions to support the delivery of the programme and promote the best student experience.
The successful candidate will be a mental health professional with clinical knowledge and experience of working with children, young people and families within a CAMHS or similar community setting. The ideal candidate will demonstrate experience of assessing and marking coursework, and providing group supervision and/or facilitating reflective spaces for mental health professionals.
