New handbook on CAMHS launched at BPS conference

‘What Good Looks Like in Psychological Services for Children, Young People and their Families’ is a practical handbook providing guidance on the provision of good quality psychological services and the active roles that psychologists and other mental health practitioners can play.

The Review explains how a transformation in mental health services can be achieved by developing models of care based on psychological evidence. It provides a blueprint for how UK services should be set up to provide the best treatments and best value.

Julia Faulconbridge, Chair of CYPF Faculty, says: “Children’s mental health is in crisis and, if acted upon, this Review has the potential to transform services to prevent long term problems and offer the effective help that young people and families want and deserve. It has been a privilege to work with so many experts and young people on this review.”
