Therapeutic Support Packages

We understand that some of the major barrier’s to engagement in services and personal development for care leavers is mental health disorders, attachment issues and trauma. We have made the decision to ensure all of our staff our trained in trauma theory based approaches. We have also worked closely with a therapeutic provider who specialise in trauma and attachment disorders and personalised model base programmes. The reason we chose this provider was their dynamic and solution focused approach which differs from other providers. Their mental health specialists have over 15 years of experience working with young people in residential settings and want to work with care teams to deliver a holistic service. This can give residents quicker access to mental health assessment by a clinical psychologist and counselling in placement. 

This process can give our users specific access to individualised assessment on referral. This package also offers individual and group work sessions which can speed up the process to young people receiving the counselling and support they need. A clinical psychologist will be involved in the assessment and creation of the therapeutic care plan. All staff at the provision will be trained and lead by the approach prescribed by the therapeutic team. This service will offer a very bespoke package for the individual and hopefully start them on the road to recovery with the right support around them. We aim to provide packages which include access to that support with:

1. Initially assessment completed by a clinical psychiatrist
2. Creation of a mental health support plan
3. Individualised fortnightly sessions
4. Group wellbeing  workshops
5. attachment and trauma trained support staff
6. quicker access to emergency support
