Our Therapy

Health care and external therapeutic provision is predominantly acquired through the NHS or statutory organisations which are regulated and have their own codes of practice for professional development and supervision.

Our staff do not deliver any formal healthcare provision but are responsible for the management and administration of medication, promotion of healthy lifestyles and care with a therapeutic approach.

They are supported in this through training, access to procedural guidance, individual supervisions, and monthly team meetings. During these meetings senior team members and staff will evaluate and discuss their progress in implementing the therapeutic approach.

One week they may want to engage in a 1-1 private session then the following week they may want to interact in a more casual way. This could involve walking, baking or offering them support during their education. Our therapists holds the space for them to freely engage when and if they would like to.

On the Professional side, our therapist uses a mix of The Person-Centred Approach, CBT & DBT. We believe this mix allows the best choice for our young people.

We also use Child Clinical Psychologists and Speech & Language Therapists to ensure our young people are given the best possible care.


Measures of success

While we all see the measures of success on a day to day basis, we also produce a report each month in order to best support the young people. We also consider the following areas:



Acceptance



Benificence



Confidence



Development


We believe this gives the Young Person the opportunity to gain empowerment by working through and exploring past life events.

We can help them un-thread the emotions and feelings surrounding these times and hopefully lead them to gain more understanding and acceptance.

The person-centred approach maintains that by providing three core conditions offers for a climate conducive to growth and therapeutic change.
