The team is involved in the referral process, and pays particular attention to transitions, as well as gaining an understanding of the young person through a multi-agency and multidisciplinary approach. The team also undertake initial assessments, in order, to establish the young person's level of need and therapeutic intervention.
The therapeutic approach is based in Attachment Theory. The main ethos behind our approach is working in the 'present' moment and this transcends the whole service. Some of the interventions include: 'Mindfulness', 'Mentalisation', 'emotion regulation' and 'reflective practice'.
