What do our patients say?

"[My Wellbeing Coach] was very helpful and found some very good things for me to watch or read. I was very low when we first started talking and I feel a lot better having had the help and support from her. It was just so lovely to unload a lot of stuff without any judgement and I knew it would go no further. Thank you so much 😊"

How does it work?

1. At your first appointment, we will help you explore what is important to your health and wellbeing and talk about any challenges you may be facing.
2. You will have plenty of time to talk about what matters to you. Everything we discuss will remain confidential, unless we have serious concerns about your ability to keep yourself safe, or we feel you may pose a risk to others. We would always talk to you about this first.
3. Your Wellbeing Coach may suggest things you could do to help improve your situation. They may introduce you to local activities, services and organisations who could provide additional support.
4. You can have up to 12 sessions with your Wellbeing Coach over a period of three months.
5. In your final appointment, you and the Wellbeing Coach will review your progress and achievements. The Wellbeing Coach will also help to identify ways you can help yourself in the future.
