Counsellor within the Nightingale Macmillan Unit, Inpatient Palliative & End-of-life Care (Adults)

18.5 hours per week over 2 ½ days

This full-time role is a job share (two posts)

Salary: £39,959 per annum pro rata

Make every moment matter. Lead compassionate psychological care where it matters most.

At Treetops Hospice, we believe that everyone deserves access to outstanding end of life care that honours dignity, compassion and human connection. We are now seeking a Senior Counsellor to play a pivotal role on the Nightingale Macmillan Unit, supporting adults with life‑limiting illness and the families and staff who walk alongside them.

This is a rare opportunity to bring your advanced counselling skills, leadership capability and trauma‑informed approach into a dynamic inpatient palliative care setting, where relationships are deep, work is meaningful, and your impact is immediate.

This senior clinical role provides advanced assessment and specialist trauma informed therapeutic support to adults with life‑limiting illness, as well as to families experiencing anticipatory grief. You will work closely within the MDT, contributing to psychologically safe, trauma‑informed care in a fast‑paced inpatient hospice environment.

You will also play a key leadership role, supporting counselling allocation and prioritisation, contributing to clinical governance, and leading reflective practice and staff debriefs following emotionally challenging events.

Key responsibilities include:

Delivering advanced counselling assessment
Providing flexible, bedside therapeutic interventions
Supporting families during acute distress and rapid deterioration
Participating in MDT meetings and ward rounds
Support psychological risk assessment and crisis intervention
Supporting staff wellbeing through reflective practice and debriefing
Contributing to service development, audit and evaluation

Essential criteria:

Accredited counsellor/psychotherapist (BACP, UKCP or equivalent)
Minimum 2 years’ post‑qualification experience in palliative care, hospice, oncology or complex trauma settings
Expertise in trauma‑informed practice, anticipatory grief and crisis intervention
Experience working within multidisciplinary teams
Excellent communication and documentation skills

Desirable:

Experience in service development or audit
Leadership/management qualification
Specialist training in trauma, family therapy or existential distress

Treetops Hospice is a values‑driven organisation recognised for excellence in trauma informed working and bereavement care. We offer a supportive culture, high‑quality supervision, CPD opportunities, and the chance to make a meaningful difference every day.
