Emotional Support Coordinator/Counsellor

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced counsellor to join the Emotional Support Team in Cornwall. If a 35-hour role is not for you, a blend of part-time hours as well as flexible working is available. This can be discussed further at the interview.

The project, funded by the Elwyn Thomas Memorial Fund, will deliver an Emotional Support Service as well as through collaborative community working, which will result in valuable assets for the community. In the shape of self-sustaining peer and volunteer-led support through groups, partnerships and activities.

Reporting to the Emotional Support Service Manager, the team will deliver a professional counselling service to stroke survivors, carers and relatives. Counselling sessions are designed to help clients to develop emotional resilience, readjust to life after stroke and prepare to reintegrate into community life.
