Birmingham Family Therapy

The founders of Birmingham Family Therapy recognised a crisis whereby schools, fostering and adoption services and parents had nowhere to refer vulnerable children requiring immediate assistance. At this point Sam Kiernan, a qualified play therapist and counsellor with twenty years’ experience, Claire Mullane a seasoned Child Protection lawyer and Gemma Mattison a qualified Social Worker came together to bridge that gap. When it comes to supporting young people, we understand you will want to ensure you choose the right service. We know that good mental health impacts on all aspects of life and mental health services are under strain often leaving vulnerable children on long waiting lists to get the help they require, we aim to provide support quickly, when needed.
