Job summary

We are seeking enthusiastic, motivated and adaptable clinicians to join us as CAMHS Community High Intensity CBT Practitioner Trainees. This is a unique opportunity to undertake a fully funded Postgraduate Diploma in Evidence Based Psychological Treatment for Children and Young People (CBT Route) while gaining valuable clinical experience within a progressive and forward-thinking mental health service. The role is designed to equip practitioners with the knowledge and skills required to deliver evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) interventions to children, young people and their families.

CYPMH Dorset: A Service in Transformation

Children and Young People's Mental Health (CYPMH) Dorset is entering an exciting period of growth and transformation. Through significant new investment, we are developing and expanding our services in line with the i-THRIVE Framework, creating more responsive, accessible and needs-led support for children, young people and families across Dorset.

As our transformation programme progresses, this role will evolve alongside the service. Successful candidates will initially support existing teams from a temporary base during the transition period, before becoming part of our future service model. All posts are pan-Dorset, and candidates should be prepared to work flexibly as services continue to expand, including the introduction of extended operational hours in the future.

Main duties of the job

About the Training Programme

Successful candidates will undertake a 12-month Postgraduate Diploma in Evidence-Based Psychological Treatment for Children and Young People (CBT Route) at the University of Exeter. The programme combines academic study with supervised clinical practice, preparing trainees to deliver High Intensity CBT for children and young people experiencing anxiety, depression and related mental health difficulties. [HI CBT trainee JD | PDF]

Trainees will usually spend two days per week in university teaching and three days working within CYPMH services, developing a supervised clinical caseload and applying their learning in practice. Some teaching may be delivered online. Throughout the programme, trainees will provide evidence-based interventions within a stepped-care model and receive regular clinical supervision and support. [HI CBT trainee JD | PDF]

The course is BABCP Level 2 accredited and, on successful completion, trainees will be eligible to apply for BABCP Provisional Accreditation.

Following qualification, there may be opportunities to progress into a structured Preceptorship Programme, offering enhanced supervision, peer support, protected development opportunities and a managed caseload to support the transition into autonomous practice. Subject to successful completion and organisational requirements, this would typically lead to progression into a permanent Band 7 CBT Therapist role.
