Services and Projects

Information on the services and support that we offer

NHS Bexley Talking Therapies

Mind in Bexley provides access to a wide range of talking therapy treatments and online therapy for adults with common mental health problems.

NHS Bexley Talking Therapies is funded by the NHS and delivered in our Mind in Bexley office, children’s community centres and in local GP surgeries.

 

Bexley Recovery College

Recovery is about a personal journey towards a meaningful and satisfying life, towards living as well as possible, whatever symptoms or difficulties are present.

At Mind in Bexley we set up a Recovery College in June 2014 to empower people with mental health problems to become experts in their own recovery.

 

Supported Self-Help

Supported self-help is a free, five session programme. We give you the materials to understand and manage your feelings and we call you regularly to give you support.

This is a one-to-one self-help service, not a counselling service. But our practitioners do use counselling based skills in their support. It incorporates some Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) style tools but also provides other kinds of support.
