Consultant Psychiatrist - ELFT
I have worked alongside Youth Untroubled colleagues for years. I have little doubt that the [ISTAC] model is a highly effective way to support those families with children on the edge of care. It often helps divert from unnecessary mental health admissions too.
The therapists are highly skilled at empowering parents to offer their children the best of themselves, often when others might have given up on them. Their outcomes speak for themselves. ISTAC is the stuff!
