We are seeking a committed practitioner who wishes to further their studies by training with South West CYP IAPT in Systemic Therapy. We are offering one funded place on the Systemic Practitioner CYP-IAPT course.
The successful candidate will work within community CAMHS, delivering evidence-based systemic interventions for children and adolescents experiencing depression, self-harm, and/or conduct disorder.
The post is likely to be based in East Cornwall for most of the training, but may involve travel between clinics.

Learners will gain a critical and reflective understanding of the CYP IAPT model of service change, outcome monitoring, and fundamentals of systemic approaches working with children and families.
