How our service can help you
The Lewisham Young People's Service (LYPS)is part of Lewisham Child and
Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). We provide assessment and
treatment for children and young people, up to the age of 18, registered
with a GP in Lewisham.
Our service is for children and young people who have ongoing severe
and complex problems for some time that significantly affect their daily life.
We also offer an early intervention service to young people who are
experiencing psychosis. A person with a psychotic illness will
experience a different view of reality compared to how others see it.
This can affect how they think, feel, things they hear and things they
see Ð often with symptoms of hallucinations and delusions.
Our team members
Our team is made up of a number of people from different backgrounds.
This may include child and adolescent psychiatrists, social workers,
clinical psychologists, community psychiatric nurses, child
psychotherapists, occupational therapists, as well as art, music and
drama therapists.
