Sensory processing differences

The NHS Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) crisis and liaison team provide mental health support to young people (up to the age of 18) who are experiencing a crisis with their mental health.

North Yorkshire Council’s Occupational Therapy Team work with children and young people with a range of conditions, including those with sensory processing difficulties.

Depending on where the child or young person has a registered GP they can access support from either Harrogate and District NHS Trust or York and Scarborough NHS Trust.

The Humber and North Yorkshire Dynamic Support Keyworker Service supports children and young people with a learning disability or who are autistic, with the most complex needs and are inpatients in, or at risk of being admitted to, a mental health inpatient unit.

Multi-disciplinary and cross system working will be coordinated and managed by the child or young person's key professional where the child or young person's sensory difficulties are complex and significantly impacting on their ability to function in both physical and mental health terms.
