How our service can help you
The Croydon CAMHS Mental Health Support Team (MHST) offers early
intervention support to children and young people who are experiencing
mild to moderate mental health issues. We can help with issues such as
exam stress, behavioural difficulties, low mood, anxiety, and friendship
problems. We can also help those with more severe needs to access the
right support.
Our team of Education Wellbeing Practitioners offer guided self-help
over several sessions for anxiety, low-mood, or challenging behaviour.
This can be face to face, telephone or online.
We see children, young people, and parents in educational settings, as
well as offering assessment and screening in order to make specialist
referrals to other services and agencies. These can include screening
for Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder (ADHD), or more severe problems.
We also offer training for teaching staff on a variety of topics and
can run small groups, and workshops both live and recorded.
We run an Emotional Wellbeing Helpline for children, young people or
parents needing support. Our helpline is also open to school staff who
would like to make enquiries or talk about a pupil they are concerned
about.
Emotional Wellbeing Helpline - 07702 339000 Monday to Friday from 9am
to 3.30pm.
