About this job:
- Delivery of a full range of family treatments to all patients.
- These treatments may include the following systemic psychotherapy interventions:
- Conjoint family therapy (all family members present in the room at the same time, plus patient and other members of multi-disciplinary team).
- Separated family therapy (i.e. parental counselling and individual systemic counselling running in parallel).
- Multi-family group therapy.
- The post holder is expected to participate in assessments of patients referred for treatment and to consult to multi-disciplinary and multi-agency colleagues regarding the family treatment component of each patient's care.
- Assessment of family interactions and formulating how these are connected to diagnostic factors will be a key component of the post, influencing the direction of treatment and recommendations for appropriate family interventions.
- To communicate, in a highly skilled and sensitive manner to clients, family carers and others as appropriate, information that may be contentious or highly distressing concerning the assessment, formulation and treatment plans of clients under their care.
- To monitor and evaluate progress during the course of both uni- and multi-disciplinary care, and to provide appropriate reports on this.
- To produce reports on clients, in a timely manner, that convey the key findings of systemic assessment and formulation and treatment outcome, in a way that does justice to the complexity of the problems described, but that are understandable to the recipients of the reports, including clients and referrers.
- To assist in the management of the team caseload.
- To work in partnership with other disciplines and to maintain links with statutory and non-statutory and primary care agencies as appropriate.
