A pilot evaluation of the role of a children's wellbeing practitioner (CWP) in a child and adolescent mental health service (CAMHS).

Background: In 2017, the Children and Young People's Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (CYP-IAPT) project was extended to deliver low-intensity Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), delivered by Children's Wellbeing Practitioners (CWPs), but to date evaluation is sparse.

Aims: To evaluate low-intensity interventions delivered by trainee CWPs for the treatment of anxiety and depression in a child and adolescent mental health service (CAMHS).

Method: The evaluation adopted a quantitative, within-subjects, cross-sectional design.
