The emotional wellbeing of children is just as important as their physical health. Good mental health allows children and young people to develop the resilience to cope with whatever life throws at them and grow into well-rounded, healthy adults. We accept referrals for both children and adults who may experience emotional, behavioural or mental health difficulties. Additionally, the therapists are also able to offer personal therapy and supervision for newly qualified practitioners or clinicians in training. Wetherby Therapy is situated in a convenient position for clients travelling from Leeds, York and Harrogate.
Mental health problems affect about 1 in 10 children and young people. They include depression, anxiety and conduct disorder, and are often a direct response to what is happening in their lives. Alarmingly, however, 70% of children and young people who experience a mental health problem have not had appropriate interventions at a sufficiently early age.
