The Child and Families (4-13 years inclusive) Therapeutic offer

The Child and Families Therapeutic Pathway will offer needs led, emotional wellbeing and mental health support, for children (aged 4-13 years inclusive) and their families across Norfolk and Waveney, with the overall aim to help children to achieve their goals and have improved mental health.<br/><br/>Children who access support from this pathway are likely to be experiencing trauma, anxiety, low mood/depression, and self-harm. The provider will be experienced in providing support and promoting recovery for these kinds of issues through evidence-based therapeutic approaches, in a holistic way.<br/><br/>It is also recognised that the families of children and young people accessing this pathway may have a variety of other challenges which may be impacting the whole family's emotional wellbeing and mental health needs e.g. education & employment, housing, drug and alcohol misuse etc. It is expected that the successful provider of this pathway will work to ensure the holistic needs of these families are met; through direct support and working in partnership with other specialist organisations.<br/><br/>Key Project outcomes will include but are not limited to:<br/><br/>
