3. What we Do?
We offer an initial assessment to identify your current mental health needs. This will determine your care pathway. This can then lead to us either offering interventions, to support you in your recovery, or signposting you to other community services (such as My Wellbeing College, Psychotherapy or other organisations).

4. What can you expect from us?
Our Assessment team aim to contact and arrange an assessment within 4 weeks of your GP referring to us.
Following assessment of your needs, you may be signposted to other services to support you.
For those individuals who require our input, a care plan will then be drawn up collaboratively with you to identify the treatment we can provide (which will be reviewed regularly until you’re transferred back to primary care).
