Job description

Band 5 – Senior Assistant Psychologist (FTC)

  • Are you looking to develop and broaden your skillset as an assistant psychologist
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Senior Assistant Psychologist within theCoventry Long COVID Community Rehabilitation team. This is a unique opportunity to work across the new integrated care system, in partnership with other local Long COVID services. Our first assistant psychologist was successful in gaining a place on the Clinical Doctorate and reflected:

“This role increased my confidence in my clinical skills when working 1:1 with patients and supported me to develop competencies in therapeutic models I had not yet had experience with (e.g., third wave therapies). I have been actively involved with research opportunities including conducting literature reviews and qualitative research to support the development of the long COVID service as well as the wider evidence base in such an emerging area of psychology. This role has offered fantastic supervision, which has valued personal development as highly as professional development and meeting service needs. This supervision was ultimately priceless when preparing for interviews and identifying my blind-spots as a candidate, a psychologist and as a person. Do not hesitate to apply for this opportunity. Good luck!”

The post holder will work within their competence and under the supervision of qualified psychologists to:
  • To assist in offering specialised assessments and interventions drawing upon the physical, cognitive and psychological needs of the individual.
  • Co-facilitate psycho-educational workshops to help people with support patient’s rehabilitation and recovery.
  • Offer low intensity interventions using CBT and third wave interventions including ACT, mindfulness and CFT within individual therapy and psychoeducational groups.
  • Support the clinical psychologist with service development opportunities including developing the psychological therapies pathway for the team.
  • Support service development involving co-production.
  • Assist in the collection of outcome data and developing systems in order to audit / evaluate the emerging service provision.
  • To conduct literature searches and critically appraisal research studies with the aim of disseminating new learning to the team.
  • To engage proactively in weekly clinical supervision in order to enhance your reflective practitioner skills in order to develop your professional and personal development.
  • You will receive a regular supervision and be able to participate in regular CPD.
