Younify
Arts Therapies
Arts therapies are a great way to work through struggles through a creative form you connect with and they offer the chance to express things that may be difficult to put into words. They offer a great tool for self-discovery and awareness as well as building self-belief and process difficult experiences.
Younify is an early intervention project for girls and young women, aged 16-25 struggling with lower level mental health challenges. We combine 1-2-1 youth work support for up to 6 sessions to build up trust, help remove barriers and introduce young people and young adults to the idea of Arts therapy. The young person/adult then has the opportunity to work with an Arts therapist for 6 weeks-10 weeks approx, this could be a creative form of their choice for example dance, art, music, and drama therapy.
​​​​
It is an opportunity to talk things out with someone outside your friends or family, get advice, tools, techniques, help with practical solutions and advocacy or just feel heard. What you tell us is totally confidential unless you disclose serious risk to yourself or others. ​
​​
This referral form will give us all the essential info needed to see if we can support you/ the young person/ young adult on this project and potentially begin our journey together. ​
