Your Assignment
We're seeking someone who is confident in their knowledge and ready to develop new working methods that fully utilize everyone's expertise – both staff and patients! You see the patient as part of the team and are curious about how technology can improve Primary Care.
Your work area with us is mental health within treatment areas that do not require psychiatric resources. You will work independently with adults aged 18 and over and collaborate with other professionals at the healthcare center. The work involves psychological counseling, diagnostics, and treatment. Treatment is provided both in group and individual settings. At the healthcare center, we use triage, which means the psychologist is responsible for initial mental health assessments. Common problem areas include depression, anxiety, sleep issues, and stress. Supervision and training assignments for other staff may occur. As a psychologist, you will work in a team with the healthcare center's counselor.
Your Competence
We are looking for a licensed psychologist with CBT orientation and strong skills in diagnostics and evidence-based treatment methods. Previous primary care experience is meriting.
We place great importance on your ability to work independently, collaborate well in a group, and have the capacity and willingness to develop the organization. Personal qualities are highly valued.
