BETTERING LIVES BY LEARNING TOGETHER…’ Orange Psychology makes a difference to
the lives of children and young people by using a collaborative and
relationship-focused approach. We learn through listening and we develop ideas
together, because we believe that the ‘whole is greater than the sum of it’s
parts’. Our psychologists (including clinical, educational, counselling and
forensic), ensure that the whole picture of the child or young person is
created, working together with others to co-construct our understanding. We work
systemically, using psychological formulation to put together the many
‘segments’ which make up the whole child. The whole ethos of Orange Psychology
is underpinned by our ‘core values’ or ‘our segments’ which are; O – Outcome
Orientated R – Reflective and Relationship-focused A – Approachable and
Accessible N – Needs-led service G – Genuine E – Empathetic and Embracing The
Orange Psychology Service Delivery Model is built around collaborative practice
and operationalises the values (above) in the following ways; As a collective
team, we work in an outcomes focused way from the start of our involvement. We
share our learning together to improve our own professional practice. Our
communication is reflective, open, creative and collaborative with teachers,
children, young people, teachers and other professionals Our flexibility and
openness to new ideas means we can learn together to further improve the service
we provide. We spend time planning and listening to you so that we can put into
practice creative and flexible psychology services. Orange Psychology will
respond and adapt to what those needs are, by listening and learning together.
The authentic partnerships we create really can ‘better lives by learning
together’. We embrace ideas with openness and compassion, meaning that our
practitioners can bring together the many ‘segments’ that can make for a better
‘whole’. THE WAY WE WORK We have a growing number of school contracts across the
North, including Greater Manchester areas, Lancashire, and Yorkshire. Our
psychologists work hard to offer a good quality bespoke service to ensure
maximum effectiveness. We are highly organised and driven by the need to help
schools, families and young people; We operate 2 or 3 term contracts with our
school clients, to offer maximum flexibility across the school year We can
provide Records of Involvement and/or high quality reports to support multi
agency working or formal statutory processes We always work with parents and
schools to gather the ‘whole’ picture of the child.
