Bridge the Gap Child Mental Health is a brand that focuses on supporting child mental health in Derby. Founded in 2017 by Jennifer Wyman, who has over 21 years of experience in Early Years, the brand is passionate about Emotional Literacy and its impact on mental well-being. Jennifer's personal experience with trauma and mental health struggles inspired her to share her knowledge with others.

Bridge the Gap offers sessions for parents and teachers to understand the links between mental health, emotional literacy, and behavior. The brand expanded when Nikki Webster, a specialist mental health nurse, joined in 2018. Together, they developed a child 1:1 emotional support service, providing comprehensive support for children for approximately 12 weeks or longer if needed.

Their approach is relationship-focused, tailored to each child's interests and needs. The team also offers ACAMH award-nominated training to schools and healthcare professionals. Bridge the Gap's focus on authentic emotional resilience centers around helping children build their toolbox of strategies to cope with life's challenges.

Weekly sessions, priced between £45-£60, aim to nurture self-esteem, problem-solving skills, and the acceptance of all emotions. To book an initial parent telephone assessment or inquire about their services, you can contact Bridge the Gap via their website, email, or phone number
