Evidence-based support for parents of teens who self-harm. Expert resources, clinician messaging, peer community, and 1-1 sessions - all in one place.
When your child is struggling with self-harm, you deserve support too.
Speek Ally is an evidence-based mental health support platform designed for parents and carers of young people who experience self-harm. The app provides structured psychoeducation, access to qualified clinicians, support for wellbeing, alongside peer support - all in one place.
Speek Ally has been developed with NHS partnerships and informed by established clinical frameworks and best practice in mental health care.
What's inside:
Guided Learning Pathways
Evidence-based resources to help parents to better understand self-harm, develop supportive communication strategies, manage their own emotional response, and prioritise self-care. Content is delivered through short videos, podcast and articles designed for parents who need accessible and practical guidance.
Moderated Peer Community
A supportive, clinician-moderated community space where parents connect with others who have similar experiences and understand. Share perspectives, ask questions, and reduce feelings of isolation. Clear community guidelines and moderation help ensure safety and appropriate use.
Clinician Messaging
Secure messaging with qualified clinicians for non-urgent questions and guidance related to parenting and supporting a young person who self-harms. This service is not intended for crisis support.
1-1 Clinician Calls
Optional video sessions with clinicians experienced in working with parents and carers of young people who self-harm. Sessions focus on parental support, coping strategies, personalised guidance for your specific situation, and signposting where helpful.
