Penrith, Australia Uniting Full time

**About the role**

**_This is a full-time opportunity working 76 hours/ fortnight and will be located at headspace in Penrith_**

As a Clinician in the Continuing Care team, you will provide holistic and wrap-around support to young people who have experienced their first episode of psychosis. You will be allocated individual young people to offer long-term care, helping them access necessary medical, psychological, and social supports.

As part of the headspace Early Psychosis program, you will receive extensive training and professional development to learn the early psychosis model and therapeutic interventions. You'll work within a shared care model, meaning that while you are allocated a specific caseload, there is a collaborative approach across the team to ensure that every young person receives comprehensive support on their recovery journey.

**About you in the role**
- Provide ongoing clinical care to young people, with a focus on early prevention and reducing the duration of untreated psychosis.
- Work with young people to establish and support their recovery goals, addressing both symptom relief and stress management associated with early psychosis.
- Manage co-occurring issues, such as substance misuse, by supporting young people through tailored planning and interventions.
- Maintain accurate records and complete administrative tasks using the "Master Care" EMR system.
- Participate in weekly clinical review meetings, monthly business meetings, and bi-monthly whole-team gatherings.
- Engage in regular clinical supervision opportunities, including both in group settings and through direct supervision with the Senior staff.
