Thrive Edinburgh offers a fresh and exciting public health approach to urban mental health, built on explicit principles for action that guide, anchor, and align work along the wide breadth of its vision.

The model uses one theory, Attachment Theory and one intervention, Interpersonal Psychotherapy; acknowledging that relationships don’t just matter, they really matter.
