Booking an assessment

Therapy can be extremely beneficial, whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression or a number of other mental health and wellbeing challenges.
Our suitability assessment is to understand more about the problems being faced, psychologically, emotionally and behaviourally and how these may be impacting at home and at school.

All our therapy assessments and sessions are carried out online. Here are the steps and how they work.

Step 1

Get in touch with Onebright

Simply complete the contact form below. We’ll then match your child with the right clinician. We’ll set up a first appointment, at a time that works well for you and your child, and take your credit card details. This is to cover the cost of the first assessment session.

Step 2

Meet your therapist

At the end of your child’s initial assessment, the therapist will talk to you about a treatment plan for your child: how it will work, what to expect and how long it may take. They will identify the issues your child is struggling with and set some targets for getting to a positive end-point. The treatment will be based on practice in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

Step 3

Agree an ideal plan

If your answer to therapy is ‘yes’, we’ll organise a treatment schedule that’s designed for your child’s needs, at times that suit you and your child.

"Onebright really supported my daughter. She was very anxious and not really eating as she always felt sick, so started to drop weight. Our therapist has worked with her and she is now back to her original weight and doing well. She felt very supported through out the CBT."
"The therapist's calm and reassuring manner helped my daughter to feel understood, and her humility and warmth brought light to what had been a difficult period. Our therapist has an awareness of connecting authentically with young people - enabling confidence and balance to be restored gradually."
"I am grateful for the steady support Onebright provided, and I would confidently recommend them to any parent seeking a gentle therapy for their child or teenager."

Frequently asked questions

Ideally, you and your child should attend the full assessment. If this is not possible, we need to speak with your child, even if they attend briefly and you provide the rest of the information.

If you are unable to attend, the child can attend with any other adult with parental responsibly.

If your child is unwell, please let us know as soon as possible. You can re-arrange or cancel the assessment. A charge may be payable for late cancellation or non-attendance. We operate a 48-hour working day cancellation policy.

Please call the Onebright Team on 020 8129 0558.
It is not always easy to tell whether your child needs extra support for their mental health. Some indicators might include:

Sudden changes in behaviour
Changes to their sleep habits
Isolating themselves from friends and/or family
Changes to their appetite

If you have concerns about your child’s mental health, you can reach out to support services to see how they can help. Contact the Onebright client liaison team by calling 020 8129 0558 if you would like to talk through why you believe your child might need some extra mental health support.

If your child is in crisis, contact your GP for an emergency appointment, call 111, or visit your nearest Accident and Emergency.
Psychological therapy refers to therapeutic approaches and interventions that are supported by research and evidence demonstrating their effectiveness in treating specific mental health conditions. The goal of evidence-based therapy such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is to provide mental health professionals with a framework for selecting and implementing interventions that have been shown to produce positive outcomes for children with mental health difficulties, which can be used for the rest of their lives.
Alongside the current mental health difficulties, it is always helpful to gain an understanding of your child's journey to date such as their development or significant events in their life.

This information helps the clinician gain a holistic view of your child to help determine what would be best from a therapeutic perspective. It is common that children do not know this information so the parent’s involvement at this stage is paramount.

Whilst you may not need to be present for all the appointment, it is important to remain close by to offer support during or afterwards.

We understand that it may be a big step to discuss problems and difficulties. Our aim is to ensure that both the child and parent feel comfortable, supported, and understood in the assessment.
Therapy, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, can help teach children, teens, and adolescents a variety of skills and strategies that they can implement into their daily lives to help them identify and manage complex thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

At Onebright, we ensure our therapy is tailored to meet your child’s specific needs, making it an ideal treatment option for all ages, developmental stages, and neurodevelopmental conditions.
The clinician will discuss the outcome of the assessment with a colleague before confirming a decision. You will be contacted shortly after the assessment to discuss the outcome. We will offer an explanation and your recommended next steps. This can include signposting to relevant or more appropriate services, psychoeducational resources to help further support your child and where to access any ongoing support/guidance.
