Role Responsibility
You will be joining Total Wellbeing Luton which is a highly regarded and experienced national provider of IAPT service on behalf of the NHS. As a key member of the team, you will be working closely with our clinical team to maintain our high standard and help us to develop this further.
As an High Intensity Therapist you’ll be managing your own caseload providing evidence based treatments. You will provide assessments and evidence based high intensity interventions and you will provide therapy to clients with moderate to severe depression.
We offer a high standard of in house clinical supervision and training with accredited supervisors. We offer regular masterclasses to upskill our therapists and support their career development as well as opportunities to access additional modality training.
We provide excellent opportunities for development in this role through access to training around areas of specialism such as supervision, long-term conditions, cultural diversity etc. You will work with your supervisor and line manager to make sure development and CPD plans are in place for your ongoing growth. There are also many opportunities for career progression into areas of leadership or further clinical training.
The Ideal Candidate
We are looking to recruit a High Intensity Therapist who has completed one (or more) of the following modalities:
- Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
You must have a qualification in this modality and be accredited by your relevant governing body (BABCP, BACP/UKCP) accredited or working towards. Alongside vast experience of working within Mental Health, you'll have a proven ability to develop good therapeutic relationships with clients and working relationships with your colleagues.
In return, you’ll enjoy the scope and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress in your career with us. Excellent opportunities for both CPD and clinical innovation are available within the service. You will also be able to make use of our digital platform.
The service operates across a variety of days and hours to include Saturdays and evening work to support our clients when they need it most, therefore we offer flexible working hours to promote a positive work life balance for our staff. We pay incentivised rates of pay for weekend working and additional hours.

Dear Hiring Manager,
Turning Point's Total Wellbeing Luton service stands out as a genuinely integrated NHS Talking Therapies offer — combining IAPT high intensity interventions with healthy lifestyles programming. I am applying for the High Intensity Therapist position because my clinical background in CBT and EMDR, alongside experience managing caseloads of clients with moderate-to-severe depression, aligns directly with the service's evidence-based approach and its commitment to tackling health inequalities across the Luton community.
My background in IAPT settings has equipped me to conduct thorough clinical assessments, deliver structured high intensity interventions, and maintain rigorous outcome monitoring in line with NHS Talking Therapies standards. I am committed to ongoing CPD and have actively pursued supervision training, which I understand is a key development pathway within your team.
