Brijder is looking for a clinical psychologist for the Parent & Child and Addiction Care for Personality Disorders department in The Hague.

Are you a clinical psychologist with a flexible attitude and a passion for clinical care? Do you not shy away from challenges, do you enjoy collaborating, and do you strive for the best results for your clients? Then we would love to meet you!

The position consists of a varied combination of duties within the clinical Addiction and Personality Disorders (VPP) department and Parent and Child (O&K). Within these departments, clients often enter via detox and sometimes from home to truly work on themselves.

In the VPP department, we treat clients with various psychopathologies, often involving externalizing problems, during a six-month trajectory in which the focus lies on improving emotion regulation and maintaining abstinence. The treatment clinic consists of three units, each with eleven clients.

In the O&K department, mothers reside for nine months together with their child to work on their addiction recovery and on strengthening the attachment bond with their child. Within both clinics, treatment is provided according to the principles of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). You will do this together with fellow practitioners and colleagues from the 24-hour support service. This ensures clients can always turn to the support staff for DBT coaching questions.

As a clinical psychologist, you bear ultimate responsibility for the treatments and conduct both individual and group sessions. Group sessions consist of skills training and group psychotherapy. Experience with group therapy and/or registration as a specialist group therapist is a plus.

The duties

• you provide both group and individual treatments and perform trauma and EMDR treatments;
• you bear responsibility for the treatment trajectory and the quality of care;
• you conduct psychodiagnostic research, within the possibilities of the target group, and suggest indications for appropriate forms of treatment for advice to the outpatient practitioner;
• participation in team meetings, such as the substantive development of the treatment program and DBT team consultation, in which you provide an active contribution;
• providing work supervision to interns, basic psychologists, and PIOGs.
