Key Distinctions
* Variety, autonomy, and real‐world impact
* To apply psychology in workplaces, not just therapy rooms

You Will
* Work with individuals with psychological injuries to support safe return to work
* Conduct work‐focused psychological and vocational assessments
* Identify barriers using evidence‐based tools

o Motivational interviewing
o Behavioural activation
o Graded exposure
o Work focused cognitive behavioural therapy
* Provide psychosocial advice to employers and stakeholders
* Support career transitions and new employment pathways

* Long‐term, open‐ended treatment work
* Working in isolation
What You Will Be Responsible For
* Managing a structured caseload
