Job summary
We are looking for a compassionate and experienced ACP registered Child & Adolescent Psychotherapist to join our large and supportive Child Psychotherapy team at UCLH.
This is very varied and meaningful therapeutic work with patients from infancy to young adulthood (0-24) who are under medical care here as both outpatients and inpatients.
You will bring a flexible and creative approach to working therapeutically with babies, children, adolescents, families and the complex medical teams around them.

We are looking for somebody who can hold the experience and needs of the child/young person at the centre of clinical decision making while working across complex systems. A clinician who can hold a psychoanalytic framework alongside a genuine interest in multi-disciplinary approaches to understanding the links between the body and the mind (including where there is trauma and/or neurodivergence) and with a commitment to their own ongoing learning and development. You will be able to communicate clearly and sensitively with a range of professionals and patients.
