This is a service that supports children and young people (CYP), aged 5 to 18, and their families, with mild to moderate mental health difficulties which can include anxiety and/or depression.
MHSTs work with CYP, parents/carers, school staff, and external specialist services. They provide support through:
- Group programmes.
- 1:1 intervention, where indicated by the need.
- Training and workshops for both schools and parents.
- Guided self-help based on anxiety, low mood, or sleep.
- Signposting to other services – family support, bereavement
- Whole school approaches
Sessions will be during the school day with the pupil/s or with the parent depending on your child’s age and the intervention needed.
Referrals are made by the Wellbeing Centre Manager.
