have remodelled the structure of psychology services in CMHTs giving us a cohesive structure with increased staffing. Every team has an in-team psychologist and these posts will add to that provision - we have also recently appointed a high intensity psychological therapist to further increase therapy resource: this is a rare chance to work alongside professional peers in truly multi-disciplinary teams. The roles are well supported - we have three locality leads (8b) working with the psychologists in each locality cluster of CMHTs, as well as an 8c service lead. These posts are managed by the service lead for CMHT Psychology, and report to a Locality Lead Psychologist. We have a well-established framework for reflective, caseload and peer supervision, as well as access to model-specific supervision for people using EMDR, IPT or facilitating our DBT groups. We have accredited BABCP practitioners who can supervise and support people who are themselves looking for full CBT accreditation. There are good in-house opportunities for CPD, including substantive training in Interpersonal Therapy and Open Dialogue Approach. C&V UHB is fortunate to have a number of services focussed on specific issues (for example, Eating Disorders service) and, for people in full-time posts, there may be opportunities to pursue CPD time in these services. We also have excellent links with our local doctoral training courses (clinical & counselling).It is an exciting time to be part of psychology provision in the Community Mental Health Teams for Cardiff & Vale UHB. Please contact Dr Tansy Mayfield, Lead Consultant - tansy.mayfield@wales.nhs.uk to arrange a time for an informal discussion. The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; Welsh and/or English speakers are equally welcome to apply.
