When it comes to mental health, many young people do not get the help they need. We all know about the long waiting lists, the inadequate or even inaccessible services, yet more importantly, youngsters often seem to lack a deep and meaningful connection with their healthcare provider. When unsafety has hit you once, of course you do not want to be vulnerable with people you do not know and probably do not trust. Yes, there are plenty of brilliant professionals out there; caring, warm and well trained, yet to really connect to troubled teens and adolescents is an art in itself. It takes time, but also an environment in which they feel safe, not triggered by the outside world and preferably with a bunch of peers they can relate too. Not everyone has the possibility or the financial means to attend a residential program, but the core elements of the model of care can be adopted by any professional. With almost 15 year of experience in child & adolescent mental health, having treated tens of thousands of young people and their families, Yes We Can Youth Clinics has become one of the worlds’ leading specialists for 13-to-25-year-olds struggling with a wide variety of mental health issues, addictions and related behavioral problems. The session is meant to share best practices, to show why the model works and how anyone can immediately benefit from the inspiration and knowledge provided. With 10weeks of residential care, 10weeks of aftercare and in some cases a bespoke continued care plan, Yes We Can manages to reach a 90% recovery rate with young people from more than 50 nations across the globe. It shows the universal strength of warmth, love, care and confrontation at the right time by the right kind of professionals within the right kind of culture and the right kind of environment.
