What we do
MyTime South Cumbria is a CAMHS subcontracted service provision for children and young people aged 5-18yrs, needing emotional health and wellbeing support. MyTime South Cumbria work with mild to moderate emotional health presentations such as anger, anxiety, low mood, self-harm and depression. MyTime South Cumbria practitioners work by putting the young person at the heart of the intervention and focus on what they do well as well as what they have in their power to change, calling on the various systems such as family and schools, to support the desired changes.
We offer brief interventions of up to 8 sessions of support through various therapeutic interventions:
Counselling: sessions where the young person can talk about issues affecting their emotional wellbeing. Therapists work within the CSSO model but will integrate various approaches such as person centred, CBT interventions and creative techniques.
Decider Life Skills: a structured CBT based programme of effective, fun and easy to use ways of understanding and managing emotions. Young people learn how to build strategies for their mental wellbeing in everyday life, encouraging them to be proactive in deciding how to react to emotions positively.
