You will have strong understanding of child development, attachment, the impact of trauma and adverse experiences, and the ways these can affect emotional wellbeing, behaviour, relationships and engagement.

You will be skilled in utilising a range of therapeutic tools and approaches, including play therapy, creative interventions, brief therapeutic approaches and outcome-focused practice. You will have experience of helping children and young people develop emotional regulation skills, build resilience and strengthen coping strategies through safe, trusting therapeutic relationships.

You will be confident in working collaboratively with children, young people and families to identify therapeutic goals and measure progress. You will understand the importance of balancing child-centred practice with a structured, goal-orientated approach that evidences positive outcomes.

You will have experience of engaging parents and carers as partners in the therapeutic process and be committed to working within a whole-family framework where appropriate. You will recognise the importance of supporting families to understand trauma and strengthening the protective factors around children and young people.

You will possess strong communication and partnership-working skills and be able to work effectively with schools, Children's Social Care, health services and other agencies. You will be comfortable contributing to multi-agency meetings and advocating for the needs of children, young people and families.

You will have a good understanding of safeguarding, risk management and safety planning and be able to work confidently with complex and sensitive issues.
