Senior Counsellor (Two Part-Time Roles)
Make every moment matter. Lead compassionate psychological care where it matters most.
Two Part-Time Senior Counsellor Roles Available.
At Treetops Hospice, we believe that everyone deserves access to outstanding end-of-life care that honours dignity, compassion and human connection. We are now seeking Two Senior Counsellors to play pivotal roles on the Nightingale Macmillan Unit, supporting adults with life‑limiting illness and the families and staff who walk alongside them.
This is a rare opportunity to bring your advanced counselling skills, leadership capability and trauma‑informed approach into a dynamic inpatient palliative care setting, where relationships are deep, work is meaningful, and your impact is immediate.
This senior clinical role provides advanced assessment and specialist trauma-informed therapeutic support to adults with life‑limiting illness, as well as to families experiencing anticipatory grief. You will work closely within the MDT, contributing to psychologically safe, trauma‑informed care in a fast‑paced inpatient hospice environment.
You will also play a key leadership role, supporting counselling allocation and prioritisation, contributing to clinical governance, and leading reflective practice and staff debriefs following emotionally challenging events.
