Children in care, adopted children & young people

YMCA DownsLink Group is a registered charity working to transform communities across Sussex and Surrey so that all young people and families can belong, contribute and thrive.

Therapy with children in care

Therapy is provided for Children in Care, usually in their school. The work is child centred, supporting often deeply traumatised children and young people. We work closely with the Virtual School, social workers, school and foster carers in support of the child.

Pre and post adoption support

We provide therapy for children in care who are moving towards being adopted. Work with children is supported by discussion with social workers and supportive consultations with parents pre and post adoption, offering a therapeutic parenting approach and insights into a child’s inner world.

Individual therapy for adopted children and young people.

Systemic family therapy for families with adopted children.
