Before delving into all the reasons why occupational health and mental health support are beneficial, it’s important to note the facts.
Fact: 79% of employees are experiencing stress
Fact: Work-related mental health issues now cost the UK economy £57.4 billion each year
Fact: 16,522 people are still waiting for mental health treatment after 18 months
Our Psychology and Counselling services are here to ensure that all employees have the support they need so that they can attend and thrive in the workplace. We provide a comprehensive range of Psychology and Counselling services to help your employees maintain good mental health and overcome mental health challenges.
We recommend various forms of talking therapies like CBT, counselling, EMDR and more, depending on the bespoke requirements of each individual employee. We understand that there’s not a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach and so we make sure that support is tailored.
With our treatments employees can gain a lot of support, benefits and overall see an improvement in their mental health, enabling them to attend work.
With access to talking therapies, like CBT, and no long waitlists delaying mental health improvement, employees will be able to thrive at work. There’ll be a reduction in absences and in presenteeism, as well as the costs associated with both. Not only that but also the productivity and work quality will be improved and operationally, businesses will be running smoothly (reaping the benefits!).
Many people experience a sense of relief just from understanding why they feel the way they do. CBT helps you notice patterns and triggers, making them feel less overwhelming and more manageable in your everyday life.
I’m here to support you in learning and practising practical tools – whether that’s managing anxious thoughts, building motivation, or reducing self-criticism – that you can easily integrate into your daily routine, not just during our sessions.
CBT empowers you to reconnect with your strengths. I often find that clients leave sessions feeling more confident in tackling challenges because they have gained new ways of thinking and responding.
Together, we'll set clear goals for what you'd like to achieve. This can be especially beneficial if you’re feeling lost and struggling to see a way forward.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a valuable tool that goes beyond treating anxiety and depression. It can be incredibly helpful for individuals dealing with difficult emotions like anger or those who are navigating life after a diagnosis. CBT also provides support in accepting and managing ADHD and autism symptoms, as well as helping individuals process their grief. As a CBT therapist, I'm here to help you find effective strategies to cope and thrive.
All of the points mentioned above mean that employees will have better mental health and therefore are less likely to be absent from work, or they can return to work quickly and effectively. With this support, workplaces will reap benefits, becoming financially and operationally strong.
