Distress Brief Intervention

What is The Distress Brief Intervention (DBI) service

The Distress Brief Intervention service provides support to people age 14 plus or (S3 and above) living in the West Dunbartonshire area who are experiencing distress and feeling overwhelmed emotionally. E.g. Relationship issues, bereavement, Anxiety, exam stress, family issues etc.

How can I be referred?

You can speak with your Pastoral care teacher at school, your GP, or if you attend Y-sort, SFAD and they will discuss with you if DBI is right for you.

Once a referral has been made and received by the DBI Team the service will attempt to contact you within 24 hours, to offer support for up to 14 days. DBI will work together with the you to identify the things you are finding difficult and work on a plan to look at ways of preventing and managing any future distress and where required provide information about other services that can support you longer term.
