Our Service

We provide:

 

  • Very early intervention at the onset of issues
  • 1:1 work, for up to 12 sessions per child, with a specially trained facilitator in primary schools

 

Age appropriate method:

 

  • Facilitators use play which is the young child’s natural communicative process
  • Children at this age are only slowly developing the cognitive skills to identify & verbalise complex emotions
  • Children can explore issues from the real world in the safety of the imaginary world
  • The sessions are non-directive and are led by the child


Issue appropriate method:

 

  • Children are often trying to cope with issues that may be complex, ambiguous and inconsistent.

 

In appropriate surroundings:

 

  • Service taken TO the child - in the familiar surroundings of their primary school
  • Minimal disruption to school day
  • Sessions are low level, low key, and non-stigmatising
  • Our facilitators are local
  • Accessible to all
  • We prioritise areas of multiple deprivation
