Learning Disability Partnership - psychology team
Psychologists are mental health professionals.
You may see a psychologist if you or someone who is close to you thinks it is a good idea to have some extra help.
Psychologists can help you feel better and help improve your quality of life through talking therapies, Positive Behaviour Support and other approaches. We can work directly with you, with your family and/or with people who support you.
A psychologist can:
- help you talk about your problems.
- help you understand your feelings especially if you are worrying a lot, feeling sad a lot, or getting angry a lot, or if you are no longer enjoying the things you use to.
- help support the people around you to better understand each other.
The psychology team can try to help you feel better.
How can we help?
We will listen to you and try to understand how you feel.
We can give advice and may work together with your wider support system to figure out ways to best support you.
The psychology team can try to help people in lots of different ways.
