ABOUT OUR OPPORTUNITY

As a HCPC Registered Practitioner Psychologist you will supervise and support the assessment and interventions provided by Assistant Psychologists across various areas of Onebright’s delivery of services. You will also hold a small caseload and provide Cognitive and Behavioural Therapies to clients accessing our services through our vibrant Adult Psychological Therapies team at Onebright. You will be working with an articulate and interesting group of clients, who are motivated and engaging, to proactively support them in improving their mental health. Our practitioners work collaboratively with our clients to achieve the best treatment outcomes.
As a clinically led service with over 30 years’ experience, Onebright has helped organisations and individuals navigate the challenges of mental health and wellbeing in the UK. We are proud to be a trusted provider of evidence-based clinical assessments and treatments, delivering high-quality services to more than 60,000 people annually.
Our mission is to create a brighter tomorrow by providing easy access to personalised, life-changing mental health support. You would be integral to our mission.

Our vision is to be the specialist provider of mental health services for practitioners and clients. We’re driven by five core values which underpin our expertise delivering mental health support at scale.

• We are client centred.
• We support each other.
• We are curious.
• We are committed to quality care.
• We lead with integrity and compassion.

Most of Onebright’s clients are professional working people. These include but are not limited to:

• Individuals and families with private medical insurance;
• front-line health care professionals (e.g., police, fire services, NHS staff); and
• corporate employees from sectors such as law, energy and finance.

Our clients typically present at the early stage of mental ill-health, are highly engaged, and motivated to improve. Presentations are typically subclinical to mild/moderate, with lower risk than what is found in stepped-care NHS services. You will spend less time on admin-heavy risk management and safeguarding protocols, and more time delivering therapy that works when compared to treatment as usual in the NHS. Our structured clinical assessments, provided by over 50 mental health nurses, manage safety into the clinical services. Our streamlined systems, with risk escalation, means you can focus on what you do best: helping people get better.
In this role you will also hold a small caseload and be working with adults accessing our services providing a specific number of client contacts per week. As an experienced practitioner you will treat a mixed caseload of sub-clinical and mild/moderate presentations.

• Post-graduate doctorate in clinical or counselling psychology (or its equivalent for those trained prior to 1996) as accredited by the BPS.
• Minimum of five years’ mental health experience working in public/private healthcare, with a minimum of two of those years’ being post qualifying experience.
• Experience of supervising Assistant Psychologists and/or qualified mental health professionals.
• Have provided a minimum of 80 hours clinical supervision to others over the past two years as part of their clinical practice.
