Counsellor / Psychotherapist

As a counsellor or psychotherapist in the Cancer Psychological Services team you will deliver a compassionate, high quality, time limited counselling/psychotherapy service to adult patients referred to Cancer Psychological Services in Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Trust. You will manage a caseload and maintain patient records. The role involves contributing to referral triage alongside others and working closely with the cancer multidisciplinary teams to support them in their psychological work with patients.

We are a growing Clinical Health Psychology Department that has good relationships across CHFT. We are committed to developing excellent quality care that aims to meet psychological needs of patients who are treated within CHFT. We develop services in a patient focused way and compassionate care is at the heart of our department. We actively encourage and support CPD, supervision, service-related audit and research. As a newly established department, there is significant scope to work creatively in the continuation of new trust wide developments and be part of shaping our culture.
