The Mental Health Support Teams (MHSTs) is an early intervention service that works in partnership with local schools to offer a whole school approach to mental health and wellbeing.
We work with primary and secondary schools and colleges, in parts of Bletchley, Wolverton, Stantonbury and central Milton Keynes, delivering evidence-based interventions to support young people with mild to moderate mental health difficulties. Check with your school to find out whether they are working with the MHST. If in doubt, call 01908 725691 for clarification or signposting.
We support children and young people, aged 5 to 18, and their families, with mild to moderate mental health difficulties. This includes anxiety and/or depression needs
MHSTs work with children and young people, parents/carers, school staff, and external specialist services. They provide support through:
- Training and workshops for both schools and parents
- Group programmes
- 1:1 interventions where indicated by need
We offer individual and group work through effective, low-intensity, interventions for children, young people, and their families, who are experiencing:
- Anxiety
- Low mood
- Behavioural difficulties
We collaborate with schools to champion a whole school approach to mental health and wellbeing, empowering them to support the wellbeing of all their students and staff.
