About the Practice
When distress is severe, risky or stopping school completely, parents should not be left trying to manage it alone. South London and Maudsley CAMHS supports South London families with play-based and counselling-style emotional wellbeing support for children who need more than another conversation at the kitchen table. The focus is safer expression, stronger connection and practical understanding for the adults around the child.

Why Work With Us?
South London CAMHS Pathway: Parents can see the therapist role, membership route and safeguarding position before trusting someone with their child’s inner world.

NHS Mental Health Assessment and Therapy: Play, creative work and counselling-style support help children communicate through action, story, art, movement and relationship when direct questions only make them close down.

Parent and School Connection: CAMHS can help families access clinical support where risk, complexity or psychiatric need sits beyond ordinary private counselling.
