Children and Young People’s Emotional Wellbeing Service

(12-18 yrs)

About the service

This service offers brief, focused, evidence-based mental health support for children, young people and families who are experiencing mild/moderate symptoms of anxiety and low mood.

The effective treatment is based on research and real-life evidence, working with lots of young people.

Our trainee Children’s Wellbeing Practitioners (CWPs) will assess and support children and young people with common mental health difficulties e.g. worry, social anxiety, low mood.

Young people will receive between 6-8 sessions of treatment. Sessions are usually weekly, held in person on a 1:1 basis at Highcliffe Court (Clifton), and last between 30-60 minutes.

How can this help?

We offer a range of low intensity interventions that are based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), guided self-help and which focus on setting and working towards agreed goals.

Our trainee CWPs aim to help children, young people and their parents/carers in the self-management of their recovery, to feel empowered and have tools for life.

Who can access?

Children and young people aged 12-18 years (for 1-1 sessions).

Parents / carers who would like to access information and support for their child(ren).
