Criteria for accessing sessions
This service is for...
Young people whose mental health needs are acting as a barrier. Young people whose mental health needs cannot be met by the MHST or Youth Trust services but do not meet the threshold for CAMHS. Young people who want support and are willing to engage in weekly therapeutic support. Young people who need an alternative way of accessing therapeutic support. The young person will need to consent to access and participate in therapeutic support. If we do not feel that a young person comes under our service, we will recommend alternative support or seek further information.
