What We Do
Tree Tops are a registered charity who offers an Early Interventions Service to
emotionally distressed young people. Our two dimensional goal focused integrative
therapy firstly provides an opportunity to cope with any current or long standing
distress and secondly ensures learned skills and strategies that will aid any future
challenges. This leads to enhanced self-esteem, self-efficacy, resilience, improved
physical health, higher academia, achievements, raised prospect's and earnings
potential, stronger communication skills and improved relationships, which impacts
on the wider community and family and peer relationships. This will assist the young
to reach their potential and be equipped with learned cognitive coping skills for life.
What Do We Hope To Achieve
o To enable young people to resolve/reduce painful issueso To enable a young person to feel good about themselves
o To enable a young person to function effectively and know strengths
o To enable a young person to change disruptive behaviours
o To provide opportunity for young people to develop goals

Where We Provide Our Services and Our Ethos
We are able to provide our services at our base, which is a lovely old Victorian house
in a discreet location. As an alternative we have successfully created and developed
independent, safe and confidential accessible services within other organisations.
These services arepromoted to the young people whilst partnership and inter
agency collaboration ensures compatibility to schools and Salford City Councils
safeguarding, associated plans and policies.
Schools Based Services.
Many children and young people's emotional states are noticed within the school
environment, when reduced academia and behaviour changes become noticeable to
the teachers, and are often the only place to gain support.
