Children joining hands in the centre of a table

The Attach service is a therapeutic team, made up of a range of professionals, including:

  • clinical psychology
  • child and adolescent psychotherapy
  • occupational therapy

We offer support and interventions into our services for children in care and care leavers, unaccompanied asylum-seeking children and young people, and to special guardianship and kinship families.

Our work uses attachment, trauma and child development theory to understand the needs of care experienced children and young people. Our aim is to help children and young people to strengthen relationships with their carers and to grow trust.

We are part of the Psychological Hub (opens in new window) which provides a wider group of psychological support services.

This is the homepage for the Attach service evaluation and feedback online forms which we use to continuously review and develop our service. We appreciate you taking the time to give us feedback on what we are doing well and areas we could improve on.
