Enhancing concentration, confidence, and motivation.
Promoting independence and academic resilience.

Collaborate with Disability Services, academic staff, and other support professionals.
Adapt support strategies to individual learning styles and evolving student needs.
Uphold professional boundaries and safeguard student wellbeing.

Membership or registration with a recognized professional body such as:
BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy)
HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council)
NMC (Nursing and Midwifery Council)
UKCP (UK Council for Psychotherapy)
Proven experience working with individuals with mental health conditions and/or ASC/ADHD.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with a sensitive, empathetic approach.
Knowledge of higher education learning environments and disability support services.
Ability to work independently with excellent time management and documentation skills.

The work we do requires a commitment to enhancing the quality of life for our clients through personalised support, and a friendly "can do" attitude. If you are passionate about making a difference in the lives of others and possess the necessary skills, please contact us by sending your CV!
