Vårdcentralen Strängnäs is a well-established primary care center with approximately 15,000 listed patients and over 80 employees. Located centrally, the healthcare center is just a five-minute walk from the Transport Center, making it ideal for commuters. We provide first-line care, and our team includes doctors, nursing assistants, nurses, district nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dieticians, podiatrists, counselors, psychologists, medical secretaries, two unit managers, and our clinic manager.
Here, you'll experience varied work and enjoy pleasant colleagues. We like to meet in the break room, and during the summer months, we use our outdoor spaces when the weather permits! As an employee of Region Sörmland, you'll have access to wellness subsidies, healthcare compensation, and more.
Vårdcentralen Strängnäs is an academic healthcare center with broad specialist expertise. We have a strong interest in improvement and development work and look forward to future challenges. We view professional development positively. Depending on job responsibilities, there are opportunities for remote work.
Region Sörmland is investing in psychologists as a professional group. This includes a career ladder for psychologists and a regional competence supply program. At our healthcare center, a unit manager and a business developer are also psychologists.
Your Responsibilities
As a psychologist, you'll play a crucial role in first-line healthcare for individuals 18 years and older. Your role involves assessing and treating mild to moderate mental health issues, primarily focusing on depression, various anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, trauma and stress-related syndromes, and sleep disorders. We work with stepped care, tailored to patient needs. We offer prompt assessment consultations after patient referral, which can occur via telephone, chat, internal referrals from colleagues, or external referrals.
Treatment options include internet-based CBT (ICBT), bibliotherapy, and group therapy, currently offering a stress and exhaustion group and Unified Protocol for patients with depression, anxiety, and worry. Individual contacts of varying lengths are also provided (primarily CBT, with some ACT and CFT approaches). You'll collaborate with other professionals at the healthcare center and external actors as needed.
The psychosocial team consists of three psychologists, one psychotherapist, and two counselors. We also regularly have registered psychologists in training. We seek a team player who is engaged in patient work and committed to improving and developing the organization. You'll work closely with colleagues, with excellent opportunities for peer consultation and supervision. Group supervision with an external supervisor is also provided. We emphasize mutual support and maintaining a sustainable workload, with significant autonomy in shaping your work.
You'll be part of one of the healthcare center's four care teams, comprising doctors, nurses, nursing assistants, psychologists/counselors, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and medical secretaries. These teams provide consistent care for patients needing continuous support. The healthcare center actively pursues organizational development, and as a psychologist, your expertise in organizational development is valued.
Documentation is done in Cosmic.
Your Qualifications
You are a licensed psychologist with CBT competence. Previous experience in primary care and familiarity with method development and follow-up are advantageous.

Personal qualities are highly important.
