Counselling

A counselling service is available at the medical centre with our counsellor Penny Merrett.

We can also refer you to one of our IAPT (Improving Access to Psychological Therapies) team, Alison Pickard and Mark Shea.  This can include Cognitive Behaivoural Therapy or CBT.  These members of the team would see you here in the surgery in familiar surroundings.

Please make an appointment with the doctor first so that you can be assessed and referred if it felt appropriate.

A long appointment is always allocated by the counsellor and for this reason we do please ask that you cancel with as much notice as possible if you are unable to make the appointment.

Improving Access to Psychological Therapies has it's own website here where you can find useful dates for stress control and healthy living workshops and much more information to help you.
