Online Mental Health Assessments and Goal-Based Support
Many children and young people are referred to Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) seeking help to manage mental health difficulties that are significantly impacting on their ability to function with everyday tasks. An online mental health assessment with Healios can identify whether there is a specific mental health disorder, such as depression, anxiety and anxiety disorders like obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).
You will be advised if your child or young person’s needs are suitable for a specialist online assessment. If your child or young person continues their care journey with Healios, they will design a programme of goal-based support to develop emotional coping skills, boost resilience, and achieve their goals.
