Talking Treatments

What are Talking Treatments

Talking treatments help you to overcome emotional difficulties and free yourself from self-destructive ways of feeling, thinking and behaving. 

They work by providing an opportunity for you to talk in a way which assists you to understand yourself better.  Having gained this understanding you can work out ways of living your life in a more positive and constructive way.

 

These are some of the types of talking treatments which are available :

The Self -Help group

This is usually for people who want to overcome a problem shared by members of the group.

The Support Group

This is similar but for people with a common background or interest.  For example, mothers of young children, gay men or people doing similar, stressful jobs.
