‘Sequoia Service- Support for Complex Emotional Needs’
Services and Groups |Last updated: 18/07/2024
Sequoia is a new service designed to support people with complex emotional needs and personality difficulties (CEN/PD). Sequoia is an NHS-commissioned service that is delivered in partnership between Rethink Mental Illness and AWP Partnership Trust. The name comes from the Sequoia tree, a redwood tree that is some of the largest in the world. The name was chosen as those trees represent strength, the ability to cope with adversity, and a life lived best in communities – these values we associate with how people with CEN/PD survive and thrive. Sequoia is open to everyone in our communities who has CEN/PD. They welcome people from all backgrounds. At the heart of Sequoia is lived experience, it’s been built from the ground up with input from experts by experience throughout, from planning how the service will operate and what it offers to delivery of the support options themselves. The service is staffed by a mix of Peer Support Workers, Clinicians, Wellbeing Practitioners, Leadership Staff and Administrators.
