Job summary
Sequoia is a new service that is co-produced with people with lived experience and co-delivered with our partner agency Rethink. Sequoia provides primary care level interventions for people with Complex Emotional Needs and Personality Difficulties. The service covers the whole of Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire. We offer DBT and MBT informed groups, psych-education courses and peer support groups. All of these Interventions are delivered both online and in person. Staff work in a hybrid way between home and locations within our communities, across BNSSG. More information on the service is contained in the service summary attached.
We are looking for someone who is an MBT practitioner or has completed the training and is working towards practitioner status. We will consider those who have completed the basic training and are booked on to and about to complete the practitioner training. We also have the budget to train people further.
