Mental Health Support Team [MHST]
What we do
The Mental Health Support Teams (MHST) model is delivered in educational settings for children and young people aged 5 up to their 18th birthday. We work with mild to moderate mental health difficulties. The teams deliver evidence-based individual interventions, group interventions and have a strong focus on whole school approaches to improve mental health outcomes for children and young people.
In Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG), the MHSTs programme is delivered in partnership with Off the Record (OTR) and Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust (AWP).
Our one-to-one interventions are called low intensity cognitive behavioural therapy (LI-CBT) and can include supporting children and young people with the following:
anxiety
low mood
exam stress
We work to deliver a ‘whole-school approach’ to wellbeing, supporting the entire school community – staff, students, and parents/carers – through engaging workshops, assemblies, training sessions, and useful resources.
Parent & Carer webinars
We offer a rolling programme of free online wellbeing sessions for all parents and carers. To join any session, simply complete and submit our sign‑up form.

Anything you talk about with one of our team is kept totally private within OTR. We won’t share what you tell us with anyone else. But if there was an extreme situation, like if you or someone else was at risk of being seriously hurt, then we would need to break confidentiality to keep you safe.
If this happened we would discuss it with you first and do our best to make sure you were involved in any decisions that have to be made. We know this can be scary and you might not want us to share anything, but we will support you through the whole thing.
