Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner (PWP) Leicester or Remote

Are you ready to bring your passion, personality, creativity, and clinical expertise to a role that makes a real difference? Are you looking for a team who supports, celebrates, and invests in you? Are you keen to champion patient care, clinical excellence, and service development?

Hello! We are VitaMinds Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR). We support individuals aged 18+ in the local area. We are proud to be the lead provider of NHS Talking Therapies in LLR and see the life changing impact of the work we do every day.

As a qualified PWP, you have a vital role to play in the service we provide to our clients. Using your clinical expertise, you will assess the suitability of new referrals through telephone assessments and provide short term, low intensity interventions via telephone, online webinars, and computerised CBT (cCBT). Where needed, you will work closely with colleagues at Steps 3 and 4, and external services, to support safe onward referrals and step ups, at all times maintaining and advocating for patient dignity, confidentiality and inclusivity.

Each PWP brings their own unique skills, background, and experiences to their practice. Alongside this, we are also looking for:

• A Graduate/Postgraduate Certificate (PGCert) in Low Intensity Interventions (Adults)
• BABCP or BPS registration or pending registration
• Experience of working with people who have experienced a mental health problem
• An awareness of and commitment to supporting and facilitating diversity and inclusion

This is a remote or hybrid role. If hybrid, there will be some face to face work in LLR clinics.
