Children's Wellbeing Practitioners
CWPs are trained to deliver manualised guided self-help interventions for anxiety, low mood and behavioural difficulties.
There are four interventions available:
- Child anxiety (parent-led for children aged 5-11)
- Child behavioural problems (parent-led for children aged 5-8. Older children may be accepted in some instances)
- Adolescent anxiety (For young people aged 11-19)
- Adolescent low mood (For young people aged 11-19)
To support children and young people who are struggling to attend school, the CWPs have recorded a webinar focused on school based anxiety which includes: anxiety psychoeducation and strategies and tips to support children who are currently struggling with attending school due to anxiety.
