Why Work With Us?
BPC Child and Family Psychotherapy: British Psychoanalytic Council membership referenced; Tavistock training and CAMHS experience referenced This gives parents a stronger starting point for checking whether the route has the right professional accountability for family work.
Child Therapy and Parent Consultation: Child and family psychotherapy for young people up to 25 with parent consultations The goal is to change the pattern around the problem, not label one child as the problem.
Family Relief, Not Family Blame: The route helps parents support the child without turning the home into a constant assessment of what went wrong. Parents can ask direct safety and scope questions before booking: DBS, safeguarding, supervision, school liaison and what happens if risk is escalating.
