Mental Health Support Assistant

Are you passionate about mental health? Do you want to build a career centred around helping young children and promoting good mental health?

An excellent opportunity has become available for a mental health support assistant, supporting SEN children in a school in Ruislip. They are currently looking for a mental health support assistant to join them ASAP. As a mental health assistant you will directly be involved in helping children manage and cope with their emotions and mental health.

These young students struggle with challenging mental health such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD and post-traumatic stress disorder. Your main duties as a mental health support assistant will include providing support to these students, to help them settle into their routines in school and minimise triggering situations as much as possible.

These young people need someone who can facilitate a positive and safe environment for them to learn and grow. You will gain valuable experience in the sector and have the chance to shadow other professionals in the field.

The ideal candidate would have some experience working with vulnerable children or young people. Any education, psychology or therapy background is advantageous but graduates will be considered.

This would be a fantastic opportunity for aspiring psychologists, teachers or therapists.
