2 PURPOSE OF THE POSITION Clinical psychology is a discipline integrating psychological and associated science, theory, and practise to understand and alleviate human suffering and disability, as well as to promote individual and family/whaanau development, adaptation, and recovery. At Counties Manukau District Health Board (CMDHB), clinical psychologists work as part of interdisciplinary teams to provide psychological assessments and interventions for clients of their teams. Clinical psychologists also provide a range of other services to support the development and function of their teams and the organisation as a whole. These activities include, but are not limited to: case consultation, staff training and supervision, leadership and involvement in service development activities, and research and evaluation-related activities. Assessments undertaken by clinical psychologists provide an understanding of the person and their difficulties from a broad bio-psycho-social and developmental perspective and include the use of detailed psychological, cognitive and behavioural assessment interviews, and the use of standardised cognitive, neuropsychological, psychometric, and personality assessments. Interventions commonly used by CMDHB psychologists include individual therapy (often with a strong CBT focus), therapeutic groups, family therapy, psychoeducational groups, behaviour management, and case consultation. Psychological services are provided in accordance with designated standards of practise and with a commitment to the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi. The Clinical Psychologist is registered with the vocational scope of practice Clinical Psychologist under the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act 2003, holds a current annual practising certificate, and holds an acceptable Doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology or an acceptable Masters or PhD and the Diploma in Clinical Psychology (or an equivalent qualification).

In addition the AT & R Unit, provides a service for patients under 65 years of age with neurological problems currently expanding to other diagnoses. Both these services have an outpatient/community facility.
