About Us

Mini-Maria Skaraborg has its main receptions in Skövde and Lidköping.

The Mini-Maria service targets young people up to 21 years old who have risky use, harmful use, or dependence on drugs and/or alcohol and/or gambling, as well as their relatives. Our mission is to be an easily accessible reception where young people and their relatives can come for advice, support, and treatment, either on their own initiative or through referrals. This accessibility allows us to implement necessary interventions early for the youth and their relatives. We also have a mission to work preventively and provide advice and support to other units, care neighbors, and professionals.

The work is based on interdisciplinary teamwork where nurses, social workers, psychologists, and doctors work together. The receptions are operated with shared responsibility between municipalities and Regionhälsan/VGR. The medical staff is provided by Regionhälsan, while the psychosocial staff is provided by the municipality, and the managers have shared leadership.

About the Job

Common tasks include various forms of conversations, mapping, and diagnostics. You are expected to take a guiding role in the team based on questions related to your profession and be involved in developing the content of care in the operation, as well as assisting in cases where there are questions regarding care levels. Investigations will not be your primary task in this position. Furthermore, you will be part of the outreach efforts that are planned and collaborate with care neighbors and other authorities. You will have close cooperation with, among others, psychiatry and social services.

About You

We are looking for a licensed psychologist with experience in assessment, diagnostics, and treatment of youth at risk for harmful substance use or gambling, as well as support for their relatives. It is advantageous if you have worked with youth in addiction care, adult or youth psychiatry, as well as if you have experience in family-oriented treatments. A B driver's license is a requirement.

As a person, you are curious, brave, and have a genuine interest and commitment to the unit's target group. We also see that you have an interest in helping to build the operation. We place great importance on personal suitability for the position as well as qualities such as good collaboration skills, flexibility, and the ability to work independently as well as in a team.

Conditions

The position is 50%, but the degree of employment can be discussed. You will be based at one of the main receptions in either Skaraborg or Fyrbodal. Staffing at any of our other locations in the area may be relevant on occasion. Some evening work may also be included. It is a requirement that you have a B driver's license as travel in the job is included.

Warm welcome with your application!
