The Process

1. Placement Begins

As soon as a child is placed with you, our therapeutic team starts working alongside you to understand their background, needs, and circumstances.

2. Initial Assessment

We carry out a therapeutic assessment to gain insight into the child’s emotional well-being, trauma history, and attachment style. This sets the foundation for personalised support.

3. Tailored Support Plan

Together, we develop a flexible plan tailored to both the child and the carer – this could include therapy sessions, parenting strategies, or reflective support.

6. Long-Term Outcomes

Our goal is lasting change – helping young people heal, grow, and thrive, while giving carers the tools and resilience they need to continue making a difference.

5. Ongoing Monitoring

Support isn’t static. We regularly review the child’s progress and your experience, making adjustments to ensure everyone is being supported effectively.

4. Direct & Indirect Support

Depending on the situation, we may offer one-to-one therapy for the child, support for you as the carer, or help for the wider family. We’re always here to listen and respond.
