The role
Do you derive energy from complex cases and from guiding children, adolescents, and families toward recovery? Then at Arkin Youth & Family, you will find the substantive challenge, collaboration, and development opportunities that go along with it.
What you'll do
As a Master Psychologist, you treat children and adolescents between the ages of 12 and 23 with mental health issues.
- You perform intakes, provide individual and group treatments, and conduct diagnostics where necessary. A portion of your time is dedicated to addiction treatment.
- Together with a team of (multidisciplinary) colleagues, you treat children and adolescents struggling with severe and/or a multitude of diverse issues. Think of: depression, eating disorders, trauma, and addiction. Often, things also run smoothly in other areas of life. You do this under the responsibility of a lead practitioner, psychiatrist, or clinical psychologist. Therefore, you also offer appropriate support for behaviors such as self-harm, suicidality, and other types of crises;
- You provide case management for your clients. In this, you work in a recovery- and system-oriented manner. You maintain contact with the family and loved ones and actively involve them in the treatment; when is the treatment successful for them? What can they do themselves with their network in this regard? You also maintain contact with chain partners to coordinate care;
- In addition to your clinical work, you contribute to the development of the team. You participate in team activities, take on tasks to further advance the team and your range of treatments, and work together with youth partners in the community.
What you bring
As an experienced Master Psychologist, you enjoy working with children, adolescents, and families. You feel at home in specialist mental health care (GGZ). You possess excellent communication skills and work both independently and enjoy collaborating in a multidisciplinary team. You are decisive, flexible, and stress-resistant. Additionally, you recognize yourself in the following:
A Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) is a standard part of our application procedure.
