Mental Health Services
Mental health problems are common, and we know it can be hard to discuss them. The truth is that modern-day life can be very stressful, and we believe most people will sometimes experience symptoms of depressed mood or anxiety. Please come and talk to us; we want to help you, and it is better to seek help early. We offer a safe, confidential space for you to discuss any problems you might have. We appreciate that everyone is different and will work with you to develop a personalised treatment plan. We believe in a holistic approach to mental health; medication can be part of treatment, but we also talk about sleep, exercise, diet and psychology.
