Sessional Therapist CAMHS
Full Job Posting
Why join Priory as a Sessional Partner?
At Priory, you’ll be part of a compassionate, multidisciplinary team committed to delivering personalised, evidence-based care that helps people move forward with confidence and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.
You will play a key role in patients’ recovery, contributing to assessment, treatment planning, and therapeutic delivery, while working within strong clinical governance frameworks.
What we offer:
Steady patient flow – referrals provided, so you can focus on therapy rather than marketing
Credibility & trust – work under the nationally recognised Priory brand
Clinical and admin support – access to clinical space, billing, and administrative support
Flexibility – choose the days and hours that suit you
Team connection – the independence of self-employment without professional
What you'll bring to the role
We welcome applications from therapists able to offer one or more of the following modalities (delete as appropriate): CBT, Integrative Therapy, EMDR, TF-CBT, Family Therapy, or other specialist modalities.
You will:
Hold professional registration with HCPC / UKCP / BABCP / BACP / NCPS / BPC / ACAT / ACP (as appropriate)
Have a minimum of 2 years’ post-qualification experience
Demonstrate strong clinical judgement and excellent communication skills
Be confident working within clinical governance frameworks, including digital systems, concise clinical notes, and attendance at risk management meetings
Accreditation: Accreditation with a relevant professional body is required. In certain circumstances, we may consider applicants who are working towards accreditation , provided this can be completed within 12 months of appointment.
What we will give you in return
Starting out or expanding in private practice can feel daunting. Partnering with Priory removes much of that burden while preserving your professional independence. Practical details:
Competitive sessional rates with active patient flow
Autonomy – you manage your own caseload
Flexible workload – typically 8–15 sessions per week (more or fewer by choice)
Hybrid working – on-site sessions with the option to continue online where appropriate
Background checks – DBS and regulatory checks covered by Priory
On-site benefits – free or discounted parking and subsidised meals at many locations
If you’re committed to making a difference and want to work flexibly within a supportive, professional environment, we’d love to hear from you.
