Middlesbrough Psychology Service is now in its third academic year as a re-established service.
We endeavor to strengthen our vibrant service of enthusiastic psychologists who are committed and passionate about the application of psychology in the service of children, young people and their families.

We value supervision, opportunities for professional and career development, critical thinking and ethicality of service delivery. We offer unique opportunities to both develop and be part of a strong, supportive team of psychologists, which is embracing the challenge of navigating a new course with a consultative framework of service delivery. This really is an exciting time to come and join us.
