We have an exciting opportunity for a passionate and skilled Mental Health Professional to join the Perinatal and Infant Mental Health Service (PIMHS) provides specialist assessment, consultation and therapeutic intervention for women experiencing mental health challenges during pregnancy and the first years of motherhood, with a strong focus on supporting the parent-infant relationship and promoting optimal outcomes for both mother and baby.

You will become part of a highly experienced and supportive multidisciplinary team comprising Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Social Workers, Registered Nurses and Midwives who are committed to delivering evidence-based, recovery-oriented and family-centred care. Working collaboratively within this specialist service, you will have the chance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of mothers, infants and families during a critical period of development and wellbeing.
