Family Therapist – do you want to help turn concerns into action in a strong professional community?

Then you might be our new colleague! With us you will be part of an engaged and professionally strong team, where we help each other, share our knowledge and together create the best solutions for children, young people and families.

The Entrance

In The Entrance we meet children, young people and families early, when concerns about well-being, development or family life arise. We collaborate with families to find solutions that strengthen the child's development opportunities and support the family's empowerment. The Entrance in the Children and Youth Department offers advice, guidance and support to children, young people and families who need help in a difficult situation.

In this team, incoming notifications are received and processed, but also § 30 cases from Team 0-8, Team 9-17 and the Special Team are handled here. If you have special knowledge about autism or ADHD, we see it as an advantage, as there will be tasks that call for knowledge about neurodivergence.

As a family therapist in this team there are tasks such as conversations with the child or the young person, family conversations, crisis conversations, open counseling, etc. In The Entrance quick decisions are made, and it is a great advantage that you have knowledge of municipal workflows. We have a high tempo and see our different professional backgrounds as a strength where we draw on each other’s professional competencies.

We are child advisers, prevention advisers, family therapists and two team leaders in the same team. And with you in the team we will be 3 family therapists. In The Entrance we are creative and curious about each other’s ideas, and we help each other whenever we can, with all we can.

As a family therapist in The Entrance you will receive

• Weekly meetings with the entire The Entrance Team, where we discuss and implement initiatives.
• Great freedom to arrange your concrete tasks yourself.
• Diverse tasks – opportunities for advice and guidance tasks as well as family therapy tasks, psychoeducation, crisis courses, group programs, etc.
• Colleagues who have a high professional level, who value and see the need for professional sparring and supervision. We have a culture where we reach out to each other, whether it is for sparring or a good idea.
• A daily life with pace and variation.
• Possibility to become part of a professionally strong group, where we continuously spar about our cases and draw on each other’s experiences. We work with a high degree of independence, but never stand alone when a case calls for joint reflection or new perspectives.

We would be excited if you

• Have an educational background in pedagogy or another social science with a relevant higher education or continuing education, preferably a psychotherapeutic education.
• Come with solid experience in family therapy and see yourself as a generalist
• Have experience working with complex tasks where autism spectrum disorders or other psychiatric disorders are present in the family.
