Who is the service for?

This service is for young people who have experienced traumatic events, whether recently or in the past.  Such events may include a road traffic accident, assault, traumatic bereavement, violent incidents, natural disasters or other traumatic events.

Kinds of treatment offered

We offer time-limited consultations and ongoing sessions where appropriate. We provide a range of talking therapies, including eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing, and our approach is tailored to the needs of the individual.

How to access this service

We offer a wide range of services, catering to many different needs. To ensure that you access the right service we pass all enquiries through a central coordinator, who will ask you a few questions in order to pass you on to the most appropriate service. Please call our coordinator on 020 8938 2241.

We accept professional referrals, but you can also refer yourself to this service without going through a GP or other health professional.
