Previous experience of working with children/ young people or those adults with well-being issues is essential.
A need to engage in critical thinking whilst working within a team is essential, drawing on reflective practice to build ongoing growth. They will also need to provide unconditional positive regard within their interactions with vulnerable young person, seeing the future potential rather than the label. A range of approaches and evidence will inform the approach to build towards emotional recovery.
