• This service provides Psychological Therapy for children and young people using our unique GEMS model.

• The GEMS approach serves as a structured framework that allows a Specialist Clinician to deliver integrative psychological therapy effectively.

• Parents and caregivers are often invited to participate in these sessions to reinforce their role as primary co-regulators and to foster a strong relational bond with their child.

• These therapy sessions are conducted alongside the TREASURE Parent Consultation, which is scheduled based on assessment recommendations and the agreed funding level.

• The integrated therapies may include attachment, psychodynamic, systemic, humanistic, or cognitive-behavioural approaches, all framed within a neuro-sequential model.

• It is advisable for these sessions to incorporate play or Theraplay © techniques, often involving the primary caregiver in each session.

• Treasure Keepers utilize a neuro-sequential approach in their therapies, which is integrative and "bottom-up." This means that therapies are designed to engage the lower and mid-brain functions before reaching the higher brain.

• This holistic approach addresses the body, relationships, experiences, and thoughts in a personalized manner for each young person. 

• Treasure Keepers have qualified and specialized practitioners selected to work within this service.

• Sessions are typically offered every two weeks.
