A private, unhurried space to talk things through

Appointments take place in private consulting rooms, away from the general outpatient area, so you can talk openly about what has been difficult. A first appointment is an assessment: a conversation about how you have been, what has changed, and what kind of support might help.

Where medication is already part of your care, or might help, it is reviewed as part of the appointment and explained clearly, including what to expect and what to raise if something doesn't feel right. Follow-up is scheduled to suit you, whether that means a single conversation or ongoing appointments over time.

What this covers

  • Psychiatric assessment
  • Individual counselling
  • Medication review
  • Follow-up appointment scheduling

Conditions we see most

  • Persistent low mood
  • Anxiety
  • Difficulty coping with stress or a life change
  • Sleep difficulties linked to mood
  • Ongoing medication review for a mental health condition
