What

Harrow Horizons is an emotional well-being service for families, delivered by Anna Freud. The service offers support to children and young people from 0 to 18, and up to 25 for young people with special needs. This includes early intervention for those at risk of homelessness and other harmful behaviours.

The service provides:

• Brief evidence-based interventions
• Individual and group parenting support programmes
• Parent webinars on common issues of need
• Individual consultations

Support for families

Short-term, goal-focused, evidence-based interventions (such as CBT) for children and young people who are experiencing mild to moderate mental health difficulties with anxiety, low mood and challenging behaviour / behavioural difficulties

• Interventions may be individual or group based
• Please note, that whilst Harrow Horizons assesses all referrals on a case by case basis, for referrals for children under 12, the parent/carer will usually be offered a intervention that both parent and child attend (we do not offer 1:1 intervention under 12)
• We support families through referrals that can be made by young people, parents/carers, schools and professionals.

Support for professionals

• Consultation to parents/carers and professionals to offer support and clinical advice
