### Job Introduction

We are currently recruiting for exciting opportunities to join Turning Point
and be part of our highly successful and innovative NHS Talking Therapies
service. At Wakefield Talking Therapies we specialise in evidence–based
psychological therapies and we are looking for qualified High Intensity CBT
Therapists to join the team.

We support people in the local area who are having difficulty in coping and
who may be suffering from a common mental illness such as depression, anxiety
or phobias. Our approach embeds the notion of well–being and recovery and
promotes personal responsibility for lifestyle choices and self–management of
mental well–being. For our clients, this has resulted in a highly accessible
and user–friendly service available across a wide geographical area.

We provide excellent opportunities for development in this role through access
to training around areas of specialism such as supervision, long-term
conditions, cultural diversity etc. You will work with your supervisor and
line manager to make sure development and CPD plans are in place for your
ongoing growth. There are also many opportunities for career progression into
areas of leadership or further clinical training.

This is a hybrid role with presence in the service required.

This is a part-time role - 22.5 hours per week.

We offer £1,200 joining bonus.

### Role Responsibility

In return, you’ll enjoy the scope and support to enhance your own life and
career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress in
your career with us. Excellent opportunities for both CPD and clinical
innovation are available within the service.

We have an active wellbeing working group made up staff from within various
different roles in the service who work together to organise events, keep
people connected and provide information and support helping to make this a
really great place to work.
