Welcome to CYP Haven
The CYP Haven is a safe space for children and young people aged 10-18 where you can talk about worries and mental health in a confidential, friendly and supportive environment. They can help you through talking about what the issue is, and find ways to ensure you get the right information. They may be able to help you access the right service. It may be that all you need is a space to relieve some of your anxieties and get advice on coping mechanisms. The staff are there to listen and to try to find ways to make your situation better.

CYP Havens and the Thrive Model
Our new approach will be underpinned by a new service delivery model called the THRIVE Framework. It places an emphasis on the prevention and promotion of mental health and wellbeing for everyone, all children, young people and their families are empowered by having an active involvement in the decisions made about their care, which is an essential part of the approach.
The THRIVE Framework supports us to think about children’s, young people and families mental health and wellbeing needs. There are five different needs based groups within the framework:

Team of the Week – CYP Haven in Guildford
“The CYP Haven has given me courage to carry on and has allowed me to have access to a larger network of professionals it allows me to have the support that I need by giving me a space where I can speak openly about my feelings as well as get away from what is bothering me for a while. It’s a nice building with lots of things to do however if you don’t want to do anything that’s ok too.
The team at CYP Haven are very supportive and I feel I can talk to them about anything without the worry of being judged. It is a quiet place where you can clear your head and think about everything that is going on. I have come a long way with the help of CYP Haven and other professionals and I don’t think I would be able to do this without the support I have received.
I would say to anyone in crisis that it is okay to reach out and ask for support and the CYP Haven is a good place to get it from and I only wish that there were more things like this around. I truly believe that the help and support the team at CYP Haven can offer has the potential to make a big impact on someone’s life and can even be life changing.”
