Long Term Health Conditions

Following my own diagnosis of MS (Multiple Sclerosis) and experiencing the difficulties both physically and mentally, I began to integrate psychological support for individuals with long-term health conditions (LTHC) into my practice.

 

Following a diagnosis you may feel a mixture of emotions such as loss, uncertainty of the future and confusion around the changes that you may need to make in your life.  Research has shown that individuals with a LTHC are 2-3 times more likely to suffer with mental health issues than the general population, highlighting the importance of accessing support (Naylor et al. 2012).

 

Tailored individual support for your needs includes:

​

• A safe confidential space

• Compassionate focused approaches

• Integration of positive psychology 

• Chartered Psychologist with a lived experience of a LTHC
