Therapy & counselling

We provide a range of therapy and guided self-help for common mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression; these treatments often take the form of ‘talking therapies’ where you work with a fully trained and accredited Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner or High Intensity CBT Practitioner. Treatment is delivered in a number of ways including individual therapy (over the phone or face-to-face), group workshops (for example Coping with Stress, General Anxiety Disorder and Panic) and online. These services are part of a national scheme called Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT), which was launched by the NHS in 2008. 

We provide the IAPT services below, often working with other organisations - please note that several of them have their own website, and these links will take you directly to the appropriate site:
