What happens prior to a mindfulness intervention?

Mindfulness interventions can be decided upon during an initial discussion. Our process can be found below.

Our process

At HSR Psychology we ensure that we meet the needs of children and young people. To achieve this we ensure that any specific assessments, intervention, or direct work, is only carried out following an initial discussion.

An initial discussion allows us to understand the background and your expectations of our involvement. Having an initial discussion ensures any services we provide appropriately identify or address needs.

Our process for any specific assessments, intervention, or direct work is as follows:

Step 1: Contact us

We will usually be contacted by the child or young person, parent or carer, or another professional (eg education or health).

What happens during a mindfulness intervention?

Mindfulness interventions can be used alongside other interventions to provide extra support for the individual. The young person will often learn how to understand their emotions and recognise how they are feeling. Then the individual will learn how to acknowledge those thoughts and feelings and let them pass without feeling controlled by them. The individual will be given different meditation techniques to try, and will then be given the opportunity to think about how effective these techniques have been for them. Effective techniques may include visualisation and controlled breathing.

What happens after a mindfulness intervention?

After a mindfulness intervention we may recommend some follow up sessions if necessary. Outcomes from a mindfulness intervention can be provided through either verbal feedback or a written report. We will provide support through the entire length of an intervention. Because of this, we also offer follow up support post-intervention.

Does a mindfulness intervention come with a report?

Mindfulness interventions can be used in different ways and for different reasons. A report is recommended following an intervention as this includes; exactly what took place, the result of our intervention and recommendations for the future. Following a mindfulness intervention, verbal feedback or a written report can be given. Read more about our reports.
