The posting

Join Our Team as a Counsellor Location: Full Sutton, York (HMP Millsike) Role: Full-time – 37.5 hours per week   Rethink Mental Illness works in partnership with Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust to deliver Step 1 and 2 talking therapies within integrated prison mental health teams. At HMP Millsike—a Category  C resettlement prison for adult males located in East Yorkshire—the service provides high‑quality, face‑to‑face interventions that focus on rehabilitation, skill building and lowering reoffending prior to an inmate’s release. The role is mainly Monday–Friday, 08:00–16:00, with some flexibility and occasional reimbursed travel.     What I will do and achieve:   I deliver brief 1:1 and group counselling for depression related to recent life events, following Step 2 IAPT guidance. Working within the integrated mental health team, I support wellbeing initiatives and collaborate with Rethink colleagues across clinical and care navigation services, with supervision provided in line with BACP standards.   Clinical Assessment & Intervention

Manage referrals in line with service protocols, assessing suitability and stepping clients up or down as appropriate. Conduct person‑centred assessments, including risk assessment, goal‑setting, and identifying areas for change. Deliver Step 2 counselling interventions, developing, implementing, and evaluating therapy plans. Use recognised outcome measures (PHQ‑9, GAD‑7) to monitor progress throughout treatment.

Collaboration & Continuity of Care

Work closely within the multidisciplinary team to support a stepped‑care approach. Attend MDT meetings and maintain strong links with statutory and non‑statutory agencies to support continuity of care on release. Communicate effectively with clients, colleagues, and external professionals in both written and verbal form.

Record Keeping & Data Quality

Maintain accurate, high‑quality clinical records and enter data onto agreed systems. Contribute to monthly performance reporting to support service monitoring and improvement.

Professional Standards & Development

Protect client confidentiality and uphold Rethink Mental Illness values at all times. Engage openly in supervision and adopt a flexible, pragmatic approach to ensure excellent service delivery. Work to agreed activity levels to maintain accessibility and minimise waiting times.

  Essential Experience and Skills:

Diploma in therapeutic counselling (or equivalent) enabling BACP or similar professional accreditation. Post‑qualification counselling experience within an IAPT or stepped‑care service, delivering evidence‑based brief interventions. Strong knowledge of assessment, screening, referral pathways, risk assessment, record‑keeping and outcome‑based practice (e.g., PHQ‑9, GAD‑7). Ability to build effective therapeutic relationships and work in an inclusive, culturally sensitive, non‑discriminatory manner. Clear understanding of IAPT counselling models and their application in clinical practice. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with confidence using IT systems, Microsoft Office, and clinical databases. Ability to prioritise workload, manage challenging situations calmly, and adapt positively to changing demands. Commitment to personal and professional development, using supervision constructively and maintaining reflective practice.

  If you’re passionate about empowering individuals, reducing stigma, and improving mental health outcomes, we’d love to hear from you.     IND1

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
