Managing Low Mood and Anxiety:

These are run either in person or online.  The course is suitable for anybody who wants an introduction to CBT, to gain an understanding of general anxiety and depression, and is self-motivated to learn self-help techniques to better manage their mood.  There are opportunities to ask questions and join in with group tasks, although it is not a forum to share personal experiences. We encourage participants to have their cameras on if they are attending online. Patients can attend the managing low mood and anxiety course following a referral to TalkPlus and after discussion for suitability at their initial assessment.  The course is suitable for people experiencing mild to more severe levels of depression or general anxiety.
