With over 1,300 employees, the Department of Psychiatry fulfils a triple mission covering the treatment of mental disorders, education, and research.

The department's mission is to effectively detect and treat increasingly common and diverse pathologies with respect for patients and their relatives. The department is thus tasked with effectively detecting and treating increasingly frequent and varied pathologies while respecting patients and their families.

Organised into six services, the department offers hospital, outpatient, and community care services.

The adult psychiatry service is involved in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of mental disorders in adults aged 18 to 65. Within outpatient and inpatient units, multidisciplinary teams provide comprehensive care, combining medical treatment, psychotherapy, and social support, in collaboration with external partners.

Job Description

In your role, you will offer psychological follow-ups as well as individual and group psychotherapies, managing the difficulties encountered by patients. You will develop tailored care plans and therapeutic and preventive interventions, contributing to comprehensive and proactive care.

Your work takes place within an interdisciplinary framework promoting close collaboration with psychiatrists, nurses, and other health professionals at the Centre for Ambulatory Psychiatry and Integrated Psychotherapy. As such, you actively participate in clinical meetings as well as discussions and exchanges regarding care situations.

More broadly, you will work in an environment that values collaboration, clinical expertise, and knowledge sharing, serving demanding and humane hospital care.

Qualifications

Holder of a Master’s degree in psychology (or an equivalent qualification), you possess a federal psychotherapist title or are engaged in advanced training towards obtaining it.

You have at least 3 to 4 years of experience in psychotherapy, which has allowed you to develop strong clinical skills and a rigorous, structured practice.

Comfortable working in a multidisciplinary team, you actively contribute to the collective dynamic while demonstrating autonomy, reliability, and a strong sense of responsibility in your role.

You also have experience working with an adult population presenting mental disorders.

Interested in research and the evolution of practices, you are committed to continuous development and updating of your skills.
