Emergis jeugd ggz offers mental health care to children and young people in Zeeland. With approximately 100 driven colleagues, we treat children and young people eligible for SGGZ up to top-tier care. This takes place at home, outpatient, part-time or day treatment, or—if necessary—in the clinic. Within our treatments, we focus on recovery and provide the child and their social environment with the tools needed to be a child and to enter adult life with confidence.

Diagnostics: Together with the client and their system, you map out the request for help and perform diagnostic research.

Treatment: You conduct individual treatment sessions with young people with complex problems and contribute to their recovery and development. You draw up treatment plans, evaluate them structurally, and monitor the progress of the treatment. Based on your expertise, you provide substantive direction to the implementation of the treatment goals.

Collaborating & developing: You work closely within a multidisciplinary team, consisting of, among others, a psychiatrist, orthopedagogue-generalist, GZ-psychologist in training, system therapist, psychologist, occupational therapists, nurses, and educators. You have an eye for the context of the young person and actively involve the network in the treatment. Additionally, you contribute to a safe treatment climate, think along about policy developments, and provide an active contribution to innovations and quality improvements within the care.

When you work within youth mental health care, you are constantly dealing with various stakeholders, such as parents and loved ones, the municipality, and school.
