Support for Individuals
Stress and anxiety can have a huge impact on our working lives, causing us to feel overwhelmed and struggle to deal with everyday pressures. If we don’t seek support to help us deal with these issues it can lead to further impacts on our lives, including physical health issues and sickness absence. This in turn can add more worry to our lives, including financial stresses.
If you are struggling, the In-Work Support Service can help.
Our service offers fast and free access to a range of therapeutic interventions, designed to support you to deal with the issues you are facing and get you back on your feet.
This service is confidential; we will not inform your employer that you are accessing the service unless you wish us to do so.
How can we help?
Our experienced, qualified team can support you in a number of ways, including:
Counselling/psychotherapy with one of our fully trained counsellors to help you to develop your own understanding of your situation, provide you with a safe place where you can explore aspects of your life and feelings, by talking openly and freely. Our counsellors use techniques to assist you to reach your own resolutions or develop strategies to address and remedy your concerns.
1:1 support with a highly experienced and knowledgable support worker who can help you manage your mental health.
EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing. It is a comprehensive psychotherapy that helps you process and recover from past experiences that are affecting your mental health and wellbeing. It involves using side to side eye movements combined with talk therapy in a specific and structured format.
CBT stands for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. CBT is based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap you in a vicious cycle. Using different methods and tools you can learn to improve these negative thinking patterns.
Physiotherapy and osteopathy sessions with highly trained and experienced practitioners to help you improve your physical health.
All interventions are short and focused, with a maximum of 6 sessions per person.
