Supported self-help can make a positive difference to your mental health. It’s a free programme that works with you, to support you to recognise and understand your emotions. We give you the materials to understand and manage your feelings. And we call you regularly to give you support.
This is a one-to-one guided self-help service, not a counselling service. But our practitioners do use counselling-based skills in their support.
You don’t need a GP referral to sign up for supported self-help.
Once you’ve signed up, we’ll get in touch to talk about the issues you’re dealing with. If supported self-help is right for you, together we’ll agree a programme of support. This can cover any of the following:
-Anxiety and panic attacks
-Coping with grief and loss
-Loneliness and feeling lonely
-Low self esteem
-Low mood and depression
-Managing anger
-Managing stress
