You can sign up to our online wellbeing programme (SilverCloud) that provides tools to help you think and feel better, also we have wellbeing classes and courses, these can be online or face-to-face. These services are available straight away.

If you’re not sure what’s right for you, or think you may need something more – you can have an assessment with a therapist to discuss the most suitable treatment options for you.

Services we offer include:

Classes and Courses

We have a variety of classes and courses both one-off and multi-session to introduce you to skills and tools to help you improve your wellbeing. Our website has a full list of what we have available.

Group Therapies

After assessment we also have a range of group therapy options. You are supported through a therapy programme with a small group of peers who may be experiencing similar issues to you.

Long-term health conditions

We understand that advice is often given on your physical health but not the impact on your emotional wellbeing.

If you’re living with a long-term physical health condition, such as chronic pain, diabetes, lung conditions or long COVID, we have sessions where you can learn tools and skills to help you live well.
