Children's Wellbeing Support in Sussex

Many children and young people struggle with their emotions, behaviour, or confidence, but their needs aren’t always severe enough to meet the threshold for therapy or CAMHS support. You may have noticed that something in your child doesn’t feel quite right, but you’re not sure where to turn or whether it’s “serious enough” to seek help.

Our children's wellbeing support in Sussex is designed for exactly this stage. These sessions are low-cost early support sessions for children and teenagers, offering a safe, supportive space without the need for a referral or long waiting lists. We focus on providing practical, accessible mental health support for children and young people before challenges escalate.

We also offer therapeutic support for parents who are struggling with the behaviour of their child. These sessions are designed to help parents better understand their child’s needs and feel more confident in how to respond.

The Shoreham Centre

Children's wellbeing support in Sussex takes place in a private room at the fully accessible Shoreham Centre. Conveniently located near public transport, it offers a large pay-and-display car park at the rear, as well as an on-site coffee shop for parents.

School

For parents who prefer not to take their child out of school for sessions, we can provide sessions within the child's school. This allows children to receive the support they need in a familiar environment, minimising disruption to their learning.

Frequently Asked Questions About Children’s Mental Health Support in Sussex

What are Children’s Wellbeing Sessions?

How are these sessions different from therapy or counselling?

These sessions are not therapy or counselling.

They are designed for children whose needs:

Are not severe enough for therapy
Do not meet CAMHS threshold
But would still benefit from support

We focus on early intervention and prevention, helping children before challenges escalate.

If your child needs more specialist or clinical support, we will offer you Children's Therapy with a qualified children's therapist.

Who are the sessions suitable for?

Our sessions are suitable for children and young people who may be:

Struggling with anxiety, stress, or worry
Finding emotions difficult to manage
Showing changes in behaviour at home or school
Experiencing low confidence or self-esteem
Finding friendships or social situations challenging
Going through school transitions
Not quite themselves, but without a clear diagnosis

They are also suitable for children who are SEN-friendly support needs but do not require specialist intervention.

Does my child need a referral or diagnosis to book?

What if my child doesn’t meet CAMHS threshold?

Do you offer support for parents?

Yes - we recognise that supporting a child can feel overwhelming at times, and parents often need support too.

Alongside our Children’s Wellbeing Sessions, we offer therapeutic parenting sessions to help parents better understand their child’s needs and feel more confident in how to respond.

These sessions can support you with:

Understanding your child’s emotions and behaviour
Managing challenging behaviour at home
Supporting anxiety, stress, or big emotions
Building stronger, more connected relationships

Our aim is to support the whole family, not just the child, so you feel equipped with practical strategies and reassurance. Please book in for a free discovery call to find out more.
