Long Term Health Conditions
Long-term health conditions (LTCs) can be extremely debilitating and affect our mental health as well as our physical health. At Centre for Psychology, we have specially trained therapists who can deliver tailored therapy to individuals whose LTCs are impacting their mental health, using a range of therapeutic techniques including CBT and ACT approaches.
Group Therapy
We offer a range of therapy groups that cover a wide variety of mental health difficulties, such as Living Well with Anxiety, Coping with Worry and Low Mood, Improving Self-esteem, Pain Management, and many more. Group therapy can be a validating and reassuring setting where you can learn CBT based techniques on how to manage your symptoms and improve your mental health, whilst being able to relate with others who are experiencing similar problems.
Anxiety
Anxiety can become a problem if our safety mechanism (fight or flight) is triggered by something when there is no real threat and it begins to impact our daily life. Symptoms can include increased sweating, increased heart rate or heart palpitations, nausea, chest pains, feeling faint, digestive/stomach issues and more.
Depression
Depression is a very common mental health difficulty many people face at one point in their lives. We can feel unhappy, sad, stuck, stressed, ambivalent, or we can feel very little. Often we feel like there is nothing we can do to change our circumstances. CBT can help to identify negative patterns of thoughts and behaviours to break the cycle of depression.
