Child & Adolescent Trauma Service

We offer a specialist psychological trauma service for children and adolescents who have experienced or witnessed stressful, overwhelming or traumatic life events. Our child psychotherapists have extensive experience of helping children adjust and come to terms with these experiences. Children often express their distress through behavioural difficulties and we are happy to be contacted by a child's parents, teacher, social worker or health professional to explore how a child as well as the family or wider social network involved may have been affected by a traumatic event and how we might best be able to offer help or support. We also work with 'looked after children' and children who have experienced traumatic bereavement as the result of a loss of a parent or other significant person.
