Unravel for Support Services
Psychological support & training for support services
A Supportive Partnership
We provide specialist psychological services to support children, working closely with a range of support services, from Child and Mental Health Services (CAMHS) to foster services and parenting support charities.
Through these partnerships, we are proud to be a trusted referral point, bridging the gap in emotional and psychological services for a number of organisations when children in their care need it most.
The Unravel approach
The Unravel approach is unique and statistically proven. We apply a range of scientific techniques and a three-sixty approach which gives all those involved strategies for handling the issues presented by children in emotional distress. This includes workshops for parents and training to members of staff dealing with children throughout these challenges.
Unravel is registered with the British Psychological Service (BPS). Our practitioners are fully trained and receive ongoing supervision in the Unravel model, which is based on 30 years’ empirical research.

The Blinks books
We’ve created a set of books, The Blinks, to help children, young people, and their families understand emotional and behavioural issues. They provide techniques to help manage and change the intensity and duration of emotional and behavioural issues.
Supporting each novel is a Reference Manual for parents, carers and teachers. It explains the reasons behind the interventions in The Blinks books. We’ve created a supportive booklet having been prompted by parents who were desperate to understand the psychological issues that their children were experiencing.
