DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY - WE CAN HELP YOU FEEL BETTER AND STAY WELL

If mental health problems are making it hard to function day-to-day, you’re not alone.

Depression and anxiety are the most common mental health conditions. Without treatment, they can impact your relationships, general health, work, finances and overall enjoyment of life.

Our therapist partners can provide psychological therapies, and we may provide you with medicines to help you feel better and then stay well - providing they’re suitable for you.

Please note, this service is only suitable for treating mild to moderate depression or anxiety. If you need help for other mental health disorders, please speak to your GP.

The first month’s medication - if you need it - is included in the initial payment. After that we’ll enrol you on our Membership service.

If you need a referral to a private psychiatrist, that’s included too.

COUNSELLING AND THERAPY

Counselling or therapy plays a key role in improving mental health for many people. That might mean therapy on its own or perhaps alongside an antidepressant, if that’s the best combination for you.
