Talk Together
Our Talk Together programme provides trauma-informed creative therapies for children, young people and families. The programme is core to our work and allows us to deliver mental health support services across a range of needs, from early concerns to complex trauma recovery services.
Why Talk Together?
The Talk Together programme helps children and young people reach their full potential. By providing support and strategies to prevent problems from getting worse, Talk Together ensures that children, young people and their families get the support they need to overcome challenges and thrive.
Our approach to therapy
Our therapeutic services are tailored to the unique emotional, behavioural or mental health problems of each child and young person we work with.
Family support
Involving the wider family in our support strengthens relationships and the environment that surrounds the child, helping the child to maintain and progress long-term.
This approach is core to our work because it:
is trauma-informed
is engaging
is age-appropriate
addresses the root cause of issues
strengthens family resilience to benefit the child
provides young people and families with practical tools to self-manage long-term.

Early intervention to specialist complex needs
The Talk Together programme delivers across a wide range of mental health need
Support for emerging or early signs of mental health problems:
Group work (1a) - up to 10 sessions
If we think a child or young person will benefit from, and engage with peer support, we offer group work.

If group support isn't suitable for a child, we offer individual help. This is often the best approach for our neurodivergent service users.
Support for trauma recovery from aucute to complex:

If a child's challenges stem from a single traumatic event and are worsened by existing mental health problems, we offer trauma recovery therapy.
Individual (3) - up to 30 sessions
If a child's challenges stem from multiple traumatic events experienced between ages 0-7, we offer developmental trauma recovery therapy.
Individual (4) - up to 40 sessions
If a child's challenges stem from multiple traumatic events experienced between ages 0-7 and passed down through families, we offer developmental trauma recovery therapy.

At our own pace
“Thank you for all your support you gave to my children, when many other services overwhelmed them and pressured them to move forward, due to lack of funding, your support allowed them all to move forward at their own pace. in their own time, giving lasting skills to understand, cope, deal and move forward in their lives. thank you”
