Primary Mental Health Worker

About our service

Are you a young person or parent/carer and want to know where you can get support for young people's emotional and mental health?

The PMHW Drop In sessions can signpost you to the correct service to support with your current concern and get you the help you need.

PMHW Drop In is a confidential space to discuss worries and concerns with a Mental Health Practitioner who is part of the CAMHS Team.

A PMHW can link in with schools and services to work together.

What to expect

We will start by introducing ourselves and ask questions to help us find ways to support you or a young person's mental health. Primary Mental Health Workers have a great knowledge of what services can help with young people's mental health and why you feel and behave in certain ways.

We can link in with school/colleges if needed to help support you further.
