Find out more about the service
If you would like support from the psychologist, then you will be invited to an appointment, so they can get to know you and agree together on the next steps.
The psychologist aims to support with making changes to your lifestyle; worries and difficult emotions related to body image and food; supporting to increase self-esteem and confidence; and supporting parents/ carers to help their children.
They offer groups for young people to share their experiences and to learn from one another, as well as offering new strategies and coping skills to manage any difficulties they might be experiencing. They also offer individual support when this is more helpful.
