Chronic health conditions

Living well with a health condition.

Psychological assessment and therapy for young people and adults living with chronic physical health conditions.

Space for the emotional impact.

Living with a long-term condition can bring uncertainty, loss, frustration and feelings of being different. Psychological support makes room for these experiences and explores what helps you engage with the parts of life you value.

Therapy considers the relationship between physical health, emotional wellbeing, family life, school or work. With your agreement, relevant information from family, school or healthcare professionals may contribute.

Support shaped around you.

Approaches may include cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), compassion-focused therapy, narrative approaches and trauma-focused work, according to your needs and the agreed formulation.

Getting started

An initial assessment explores what is difficult, your strengths and your priorities. We discuss the fit of therapy, possible next steps and appointment arrangements together.

Make space for what matters.
