Sefton Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) are our children’s mental health specialists from Alder Hey. Some of the issues they can help with are anxiety, attachment difficulties, behaviour problems, depressions, OCD, psychosis, PTSD, self-harm and more complex psychological difficulties. The service works with the young people, parents, carers and partner agencies to make sure that the right care is provided to each individual, depending on their needs and circumstances. Appointments are given through referral from a professional.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) with CAMHS is for children and young people up to the age of 18. The ultimate goal of DBT is to help you "break free" of seeing the world, your relationships and your life in a very narrow, rigid way that leads you to engage in harmful and self-destructive behaviour. Following assessment, CAMHS can offer interventions on a range of mental health difficulties.
