Full Job Description

A rewarding opportunity to work with young people in our care and play a key role in their development while supporting them through complex and traumatic experiences.

You will support young people to build new skills and perspectives, strengthen resilience, and enhance their connection with family and community.

Therapeutic Residential Care is intensive and time-limited care for a child or young person in statutory care that responds to the complex impacts of abuse, neglect and separation from family. This is achieved through the creation of positive, safe, healing relationships and experiences informed by a sound understanding of trauma, damaged attachment, developmental needs and disability supports.

This role will work across various sites including our Tullamarine office and our homes based across Melbourne.

Benefits of joining Ability Assist
Flexible working hours – family friendly environment.
Opportunities for training and professional development.
An inclusive team that is always there to support you.

Key responsibilities include:
Provide therapeutic leadership and trauma informed interventions based on sound practice expertise and contemporary research that delivers positive outcomes for vulnerable children and families.
Provide support to staff, carers, and members of each child’s therapeutic network, including facilitating group work, conducting reflective practice sessions and training for staff.
Ensure that appropriate assessment procedures including risk assessment, therapeutic planning processes and outcome measurements are undertaken for each child or young person upon referral, placement and transition to further options.
Facilitate the development and timely review of Individual Therapeutic Care Plans (ITCP) for each child and young person.
Participate and assist in organisation wide service provision and development of training, quality assurance mechanisms and improvement frameworks for trauma informed service delivery.
Develop and maintain effective relationships with key internal and external stakeholders, particularly other mental health providers, to improve health and well-being outcomes including education performance, for each client in the program.
About you
Understanding of Attachment and Trauma theories, the relationship to child abuse and neglect, together with an understanding of intellectual disability and an ability to assist others to understand the implications.
Experienced in completing assessments for children and young people and using the findings to complete a comprehensive therapeutic written report/care plan.
History of achieving strong outcomes for children and young people who have experienced trauma, preferably in an out-of-home care environment.
Interpersonal skills, emotional intelligence and excellent engagement skills, especially in engaging children and young people who have experienced significant trauma, disrupted attachment and demonstrate extreme emotional and behavioural dysregulation.
A track record of working collaboratively and the demonstrated capacity to negotiate and liaise with internal and external stakeholders including DFFH, NDIS, Mental health providers, and other agencies and the community.
Analytical problem-solving skills, the ability to assess options and identify and implement creative, innovative and flexible solutions.

To be considered for these vacancies, you must have:
A tertiary qualification in Psychology, Social Work, Speech Pathology, Occupational Therapy, Behavioural Support Therapy, or a related discipline
Membership with the relevant professional association.
Post Graduate training in relevant child, adolescent and family clinical practice, family work and systemic thinking is strongly preferred
