Focus In

A first point of contact for a person in distress or who feels they may be relapsing

Importance of early intervention

Early Intervention support is key to promoting recovery and/or preventing relapse for those experiencing an acute phase of mental illness or for those whose symptoms are persisting.

An evidence based approach to family work

Our family work is an ‘evidence based’ approach recommended by the UK National Institute for Healthcare Excellence. We offer family therapy and related family work which helps improve the impact on family members when someone in the family is diagnosed with severe mental illness. We help individuals and families to overcome issues they may experience separately or together.

Family Work Intervention

Effective in reducing stress for service users and their families

Significantly reduces relapse rates and promotes recovery

by delivering specific interventions designed to inhibit stress caused.

Especially helpful for those living with severe and enduring mental health problems.

Focus IN impacts

{family}work with our whole family has been invaluable… managed to get us to discuss problems that we have all skirted around for very many years. We are now so much more able to talk openly about the challenges posed by mental health issues... work with our family has proved so so helpful.
