The Child Wellbeing Practitioner (CWP) Programme is part of this nationally funded programme and aims to train a workforce of new practitioners that offer help for common difficulties in children and young people, in particular CBT-informed evidence-based guided self-help for low to moderate intensity anxiety, low mood and behaviour problems, within a variety of community settings.

The course consists of approximately 64 teaching days spread over the year. The programme is delivered through a mix of online and in-person teaching, where campus-based learning will usually take place at the Anna Freud (London).

We are looking for a motivated and enthusiastic candidate with experience in child and adolescent mental health, alongside experience of providing clinical supervision or facilitating reflective spaces to support clinical skill developments. The post-holder must have knowledge and experience of implementing CBT-informed interventions for low to moderate intensity anxiety, low mood and behaviour problems and experience in small group facilitation.

The Practice Tutor will be expected to facilitate the delivery of practice tutor groups, contribute to teaching sessions, and undertake marking, personal tutoring and make other similar contributions to support the delivery of the programme. 

Location
Hybrid (a mixture of home/onsite working).  The delivery of teaching and Practice Tutor Groups facilitation by the post-holder, is almost all face-to-face. For face-to-face work, the post-holders will be required to attend in person at our London office (4-8 Rodney Street, London N1 9JH).
