Depending on your needs, the treatments we may offer could include:

  • Psychological interventions, such as cognitive behaviour therapy, dialectical behavioural therapy and cognitive analytical therapy
  • A range of pharmaceutical interventions, such as anti-psychotic and anti-depressant medication
  • Social interventions, such as addressing leisure, employment, housing and finance issues
  • Referrals through to other services where appropriate

 We may offer to use phone calls or online consultations (such as One Consultation or Microsoft Teams) for your appointment, but we will discuss this option with you. 

 Our treatments are provided by an expert team of psychiatrists, nurses, occupational therapists, psychologists, psychotherapists and social workers.

As part of your treatment, a care coordinator will help you draw up a care plan to assess the challenges you’re facing and agree goals you’d like to achieve.

We can also work with your family and carers and support them through education therapy to learn about your condition.

Transition from Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS)

Depending on your needs you might transition from CAMHS into Secondary care. These are adult mental health services.


Or you may be transitioning from CAMHS into Primary care. These are community-based services like your GP.
