If you are aged 13 to 25, living in Manchester, Salford, Trafford or Tameside/Glossop and under stress, or know someone who is, we might be the service for you.
At 42nd Street we believe that a range of different approaches can be effective in responding to young people's mental health needs and this is reflected in the variety of services we offer.
As well as therapy, counselling and individual support, we offer a wide range of youth work interventions including groups and arts-based projects. All our services to young people are free and confidential.
The 42nd Street team recognises that many of you feel disempowered, that some services are difficult for you to identify with and access and that your mental health and personal difficulties can be made worse by the health, social, cultural and economic inequalities that you might experience.
We will do all we can to make you feel listened to, valued, included, safe and unique.
What support can I get?
One to one support
We offer a variety of one to one support options and in addition to face to face and video sessions, you can also access sessions through our online webchat support from wherever you feel the most comfortable.
We also have an online drop-in you can access each Wednesday.
We offer a range of groups where you can connect with others, campaign on issues important to you or explore your creative side that meet in person and online.

Video, telephone and face-to-face counselling.
Our counsellors can help you if you are between 5 and 17 years old.
We know you face lots of challenges. It may be massive changes in your home life, problems at school, problems with friends, bullying, lack of confidence, low self-esteem.
When it's difficult to cope everything can feel as if it's going wrong. You might find yourself feeling angry all the time, or tearful and upset at the slightest thing, or you pull away from everyone and feel very alone and isolated, as if everything is hopeless. You might not feel like eating, or find yourself eating all the time. Your sleep could be broken by nightmares and you feel bad about yourself and maybe even want to hurt yourself.
These are strong feelings. We can help.
We offer a safe place to talk and help you to understand what is happening to you and get you back on track. You can tell your story in a variety of ways - you may wish to talk or, for example, you may prefer to draw or paint. It's ok to be quiet too if sometimes you don't feel like talking.
It's ok to talk about your feelings, whatever they are. Your counsellor will not be shocked, angry or upset. Anything you tell us is kept in confidence (except when we are really concerned about your safety) unless you tell us it is ok to pass something on.
You can contact us yourself or your parent or carer can do it for you. If you are under 14 an adult must come to the centre with you, though they don't have to come in with you to see the counsellor.
Our Altrincham centre is set by Stamford Park, a tranquil environment just outside Altrincham town centre.
Free parking is available outside the centre (check signs for restrictions) and we're just a short walk from Altrincham Interchange (bus station/train station/tram stop/taxi rank).

Individual assessment work can include class observations, consultations with teaching staff and parents/carers as well as work with other professionals where appropriate. Outcomes identified as the result of assessment are co-produced with parents and school staff.
Direct assessments are summarised in a report which is completed and circulated to schools, parents/carers, and other agencies as appropriate.

Engage Trafford is an early intervention programme that is commissioned by Trafford Council, as part of their early help offer. We work with young people aged 8-18 (up to 25 if SEND), who reside in the borough of Trafford and provide support to those identified as: expressing low aspirations for their future, defined as being NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training), struggle managing their anger, participating in negative and/or risk-taking behaviours, and expressing challenging behaviours at home and/or in school or college. Mentoring sessions are arranged weekly and are on average 1 hour in length, with the time young people spend on programme varying between 8-16 weeks (8-16 sessions). Most young people accessing the service receive 12 weeks worth of support (12 sessions).
Support is provided via place-based group work (2 staff members, max. of 8 young people – similar need and age) or 1:1’s, both of which are seen in equal measure in terms of the support the young people will be accessing. When a referral is received, the referrer will be asked for their preference and whilst we will try our absolute best to accommodate, we cannot guarantee which form of support the young person will receive.
Across the course of the programme, young people will focus on developing new skills and attitudes to promote their resilience, problem solving capabilities and increase aspirations. Thus, ensuring that the outcomes achieved can be sustained once their time on Engage Trafford comes to an end. To increase the likelihood of this, young people will be referred and introduced to a range of universal services, local community groups and clubs, allowing for a more effective transition away from professional involvement.
We deliver our services at the point of need, providing support at home, in school or other appropriate venues, such as community centres. All support and activities are free of charge.
All of our services are provided in locations across Trafford which best meet your needs (e.g. home; school; community venue) and are free of charge.
