Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner (PWP)

We are a clinically governed mental health provider that uses technology to widen access and improve outcomes.

We are now building out our Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner workforce to deliver Step 2 care within this model — with the governance infrastructure, the evidence base, and the leadership to do it properly.

Proper clinical governance. Always.

You will work within a clearly defined NICE-aligned stepped care framework with clinical supervision, structured case management, regular PROMs tracking, and a clear escalation pathway. Your scope of practice is protected, not blurred.

Step 2 that is truly Step 2.

Your caseload is drawn from Steps 1 and 2 — the presentations your training was designed for. You will not be managing complexity that sits beyond your scope. High-intensity cases step up through a clear and supported pathway to accredited therapists.
