Senior Psychologist
Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust View all jobs
Posted 11 day(s) ago
Reference: 2386975
Job summary
Are you a registered Clinical Psychologist with a passion for providing exceptional care?
We are looking for an enthusiastic and committed Senior Psychologist to join our well-established and dynamic Hospital Liaison Psychiatry service. This is a key role within the senior clinical team within the Liaison service.
It is a fantastic time to join the Liaison Psychiatry service as we continue to develop our services to CORE24!
The Service - Liaison Psychiatry
The Liaison psychiatry service aims to provide mental health advice and support to individuals receiving care and treatment at general hospitals in Kent and Medway. The general hospital staff can refer anyone over the age of 18 who attends A&E or is an inpatient on a medical or surgical ward.
The liaison team can then offer advice, support, or a full mental and psychological health assessment as appropriate. By ensuring that an individual's physical and mental health are considered holistically, it is possible for the whole healthcare team to ensure the most effective care is delivered in a collaborative way.
A Band 7/8A development role will be considered for candidates with the required clinical psychology qualifications, HCPC registration and competencies for this post.
Main duties of the job
As a Senior Clinical/Counselling Psychologist in our Liaison Service, you will be responsible for offering high quality assessment and brief interventions with a specific focus on people in distress, related to both mental and physical health conditions.
This is an exciting, varied role with opportunity for consultation, supervision of other practitioners, facilitation of reflective practice and teaching staff in the multi-disciplinary and hospital team.
You will have plenty of scope and support to develop your own practice, whilst supporting the team in balancing the challenges of providing flexible high-quality services, in a way that delivers quick, effective access and meets the expectations of patients, carers and the public.
Senior Clinical or Counselling Psychologist - Essential Qualifications and Experience
You will have a doctorate-level or equivalent BPS approved qualification in Clinical/Counselling psychology, with experience in a range of clinical settings, be able to support people in acute distress and hold HCPC registration.
About us
We are Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust. We care for the mental health and wellbeing of people across Kent and Medway and are rated 'Good' by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
Our teams support children, young people and adults with a wide range of mental health needs. We also provide specialist services, including all-age eating disorder services and neurodevelopmental assessments for children and young people, such as autism and ADHD.
Because we work across the whole county and across hospital and community settings, we can make care more joined up and easier to access for the people we serve.
Our vision is simple: we are here to help communities not just live with mental illness, but live well. It's why we're passionate about working with communities to make mental health care better for everyone. Everything we do is guided by our values: caring, inclusive, curious and confident.
Join us if you share our passion for better mental health care and want to be part of a team that's working well together.
We are serious about diversity and inclusion, and we are working hard to build this into our DNA. We warmly welcome applications for any of our roles from people from diverse backgrounds, and we are proactively encouraging applications from under-represented communities for our more senior roles, like this one.

As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated 'Good' by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.
We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.
Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London. The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 30% lower than London and 17 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.
We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.
