We provide support and treatment for children, young people and their families who are experiencing mental health difficulties. We support children and young people aged 0-18 (25 if they have been a child in care and it is agreed that we are the best service to meet their needs) who are experiencing psychological distress and need support with their mental health.

If a child has already received support from another professional or service (teacher, support worker, counsellor, Healthy Minds) regarding their emotional and mental health and things haven’t improved, CAMHS may be able to help. CAMHS can also assist when there are immediate concerns regarding a risk to a child or young person and they need immediate support from a mental health professional.
