Talk Together
Children, young people and family mental health support services
Over the past few years we have seen a significant increase in demand for our services. Talk Together is a programme of bespoke therapeutic services set-up to respond to this increasing demand on mental health.
The project remains core to our work, allowing flexibility across three levels (from early through to complex) of support to meet growing complexity and needs.
Available support
Our therapeutic services are tailored to the unique emotional, behavioural or mental health difficulties of each young person we work with.
Involving the wider family in support strengthens relationships and the environment that surrounds the child, helping to maintain 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
Talk Together offers Level 1-2-3 (10 to 30 sessions) of support depending on the need of the referred child or young person, and their family.
Level 1 - Response (Support to stabilise) 10 sessions
Level 2 – Recovery (Recovery support) av. 20 sessions
Level 3 – Complex recovery (Long-term and complex recovery support) av. 30 sessions
The Talk Together programme
How does it work?
Assessment
A child, young person or family member can access our mental health service to meet with a qualified psychotherapist/ counsellor online.
2. Therapy
The therapy space is time and opportunity for an individual to discuss how they are feeling and how they are managing family dynamics, mental health concerns, or processing trauma.
3. Tools
Useful wellbeing tools or activities, mindfulness and creative work will be explored – whatever is determined from the initial sessions to help the to build long-term emotional resilience.
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”
