About the Role

The Trauma Recovery Specialist role is a vital position in rebuilding shattered lives and supporting refugees to recover from torture and other traumatic events. This specialist will work with the Foundation House Trauma Recovery Framework to provide expert assessment and counselling using diverse psychosocial therapeutic interventions.

These services address both the psychological impact of torture and trauma and the broader social and economic determinants of mental health. The specialist will also be involved in advocacy, including liaison and facilitated referrals with relevant health, community, education, and legal services.

Your Key Responsibilities
  • Conduct comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments with individuals and families to develop clear formulations and client-centred therapeutic goals.
  • Conduct risk assessments and establish and implement risk management and safety plans where indicated.
  • Provide developmentally appropriate trauma-informed and trauma-focused counselling and therapeutic interventions using evidence-based modalities.
  • Provide psychoeducation in individual, family, and group settings.
  • Identify critical issues affecting clients' wellbeing, mental health, and safety and develop strategies for responding to those issues, including making referrals and undertaking advocacy.

A strong understanding of trauma recovery principles and practices is essential for this role, as well as the ability to work in a cross-cultural context. Fluency in Arabic is highly regarded due to the role's involvement in working directly with Arabic-speaking clients.
