Growing Minds Therapy expands cognitive behavioral therapy across West Sussex and South Hampshire to meet rising youth mental health needs linked to high social media use, doubling risk of anxiety.
- Growing Minds Therapy announced on February 10, 2026, it expanded its CBT services across West Sussex and South Hampshire, increasing access for children and young people.
- Amid debate over social media rules for minors, research links heavy use to higher risk, with young people with mental health conditions spending about 50 minutes more daily on social media and one in four teenage girls reporting harm.
- Growing Minds Therapy employs a structured three-step CBT process and assigns home practice, involving families of affected children, drawing on over 20 years' NHS CAMHS experience to treat anxiety, trauma, OCD and school avoidance.
- Expanding services aims to meet rising demand for youth mental health support and help children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, trauma and OCD return to school with family-involved coping plans.
- Further information is available at the practice website, as Melissa Urwin notes anxiety and low mood often relate to online experiences; the expansion responds to youth mental health trends.
