The benefits of our service include:

PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT

We will provide you with a qualified and experienced psychological therapist to work within your school, offering a range of psychological therapies and interventions for children, young people, and families with mild to moderate mental health concerns.

EXPERT GUIDANCE

We will provide you with professional consultation on a monthly or termly basis, bringing school leaders and Alliance representatives together to discuss children and young people who you think would benefit from therapeutic support. We will help you to identify key themes in school, agree approaches and strategies, share resources, and consider universal and targeted group work. A small number of children may need additional support through multi-agency meetings and high levels of risk support, in these instances we will support children and young people presenting with moderate-severe mental health presentations to access more specialist CAMHS Services.

STREAMLINED COLLABORATION

We will contribute to your school’s holistic approach to student mental health and wellbeing witha focus on prevention, early intervention, and solutions as part of the i-THRIVE framework for system change.

Our existing partnerships with specialist children and adolescent mental health services, health and social care enables us to expertly navigate complex systems of care, ensuring children receive the right support at the right time and remain in education.

For young people aged 16 and older, we can recommend alternative services funded through the NHS, or currently provided by Alliance to optimise the value of your service level agreement with us.
