Who are we for?

NHS Stockport Talking Therapies is for anyone who lives in Stockport and is registered with a Stockport GP surgery. You’ll come to us if you’re experiencing common mental health problems, such as anxiety and depression. You do not have to be told by a doctor that you have a mental health problem to be offered or benefit from a talking therapy.

How can we help?

NHS Talking Therapies offers free NHS therapy for people with common mental health problems like anxiety or depression, to help you change the way you feel by changing the way you think.

When you have your first assessment appointment with a member of our team, you will have plenty of time to talk through the treatment options in more detail to help you decide which one is right for you.

Our easy to access, flexible therapy options are designed to suit your lifestyle. You’ll have a choice of either:

  • Online therapy through Silvercloud
  • Wellbeing Courses

Most people find that online therapy or a wellbeing course is all they need to feel better, but if you still need extra help after completing these, we will then offer you one-to-one therapy with one of our team.

What is Talking Therapy?

Talking Therapies can help you to deal with negative thoughts and feelings, and make positive changes to your life.

You might be feeling angry, struggling with your confidence or dealing with the loss of a loved one who has died. However you feel, our qualified team will work with you to help you change how you think and what you do, helping you to feel better about yourself.

You can access this support on a one-to-one basis or as part of a wider group or workshop.

What is eTherapy?

With eTherapy, you can work through a series of online exercises and learn techniques to help you feel better about yourself.

We offer a range of courses available to access in the community and from your own home which can help you manage and improve a variety of difficult emotions.

You might be feeling very low, worried, stressed out or unable to sleep. Our highly-skilled team will find the right course to suit your needs and offer step-by-step guidance and assistance to help improve how you feel.

We offer a range of online programmes, including:

Where we see to you?

Our team are based all over Stockport in different places, so you can meet them at the doctors, in a community centre, or even a fire station. We also provide therapy online and over the phone at a time to suit you.
