Combined Minds: Empowering Families to Support a Young Person’s Mental Health

Combined Minds helps families and friends support young people with their mental health. When a child or young person has a diagnosed mental health condition, families and friends want to support them in the best way but also know when to step back. Combined Minds uses a ’Strengths-Based’ approach which has been shown to be effective in recovery. This approach focusses on the positive attributes of the person and builds on resourcefulness and resilience. Combined Minds helps families and friends to find ways to provide the right environment to help the individuals they support affect their own change. As important influencers in the lives of young people, this provides positive impact on their mental health. A ‘Strength-Based’ approach works both ways, also helping families and friends to search for their own strengths. Please note the app is an aid in treatment but does not replace it.
