SUMMARY:ONLINE Therapists in Mental Health Service Management
DESCRIPTION:Ticket fee supports the running of the in-person Cafes. \nManagement in the Mental Health sector – Friday\, 20th of March – Speakers Marta Banet\, Head of Psychological Services at riverside.org.uk and Kelly McMinn\, former Head of Mental Health at One Housing Group.  \nWe will cover: how do therapists step up to become a mental health service manager – skills needed to manage a mental health service with both clinical and operational responsibilities; recruiting and managing a team\, working towards commissioned targets\, achieving key performance indicators\, collaborating with stakeholders. \nParticipants will get detailed information of skills they need to develop\, how to apply for the role\, and how to prepare for interview. Specialist personal mentoring will be available after the event by Kelly McMinn. \nThe workshop will lead to the direct opportunity to apply for open service manager posts at Riverside projects. \n  \nTicket fee supports the running of the in-person Cafes. We are trying to offer the in-person Cafes at cost\, covering room rent and snacks. But there are many other costs involved in running a project like this\, which we are attempting to cover with online events – your contribution helps us.

It’s a great opportunity to meet other psychotherapists and a much-needed breathing space for me\, in a busy professional career.’ \n‘It was good to have a reflective space to meet therapists and to consider systemic/structural challenges. I think this is such an important space you have set up. Well done for what you’ve created!’\n\n‘I did feel a little like Philomena Cunk in the advert on your site at first:) I soon felt at ease though and it was such a welcoming and relaxed space’
