Guided Self Help – Guided Self-Help is a treatment for depression and a range of anxiety disorders recommended by NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence). It is based on Cognitive Behavioural approaches and is delivered by our Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners (PWPs).
You will receive one to one support to help you understand your current difficulties and how they are affecting you, and learn techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Your treatment will involve you using a range of self-help materials and completing between session tasks. The aim is to give you a toolkit of coping strategies, helping you to become your own therapist, and prevent future setbacks.
This treatment will be tailored to your individual needs and directed towards your own personal goals.
We offer remote appointments via video or telephone. We also offer face to face appointments across a number of locations throughout Blackpool/Cleveleys area.
When you have your welcome call with us, you can discuss any appointment preference you may have with your practitioner, the most clinically appropriate and safe option will be offered taking into account your preference. However please be aware that not all types of talking therapies are delivered in all our locations.
Appointments are generally weekly and last for 30 minutes.
