What makes your work particularly attractive

You independently lead the dance and movement therapy offering as a deputy. The maximum of eight patients per group are in an inpatient or day-patient setting. You will be introduced to the area of responsibility by the incumbent. During your assignment, a colleague will be available to you as a contact person. The hourly wage is based on cantonal guidelines.

What distinguishes you

You have a recognised qualification in dance and movement therapy and know how to use your professional repertoire purposefully, drawing on resource-oriented, structuring and expressive methods. You create a safe space where people with different needs and backgrounds can move in their own way. Ideally, you have experience in the fields of psychiatry, psychosomatics or addiction.

What you can look forward to

Your workplace is Kirchlindach, reachable from Bern in twenty minutes by post bus, in a beautiful setting and in a clinic with historic as well as newer buildings with modern infrastructure. The room for dance therapy is attractive and equipped with therapy materials. The patients choose to participate in dance therapy themselves and are correspondingly motivated. For lunch and coffee breaks, there is a cafeteria with a lovely terrace with a view.
