Review of Talking Therapies (OLD)
22nd March 2023


The therapists were always kind and listened. They didn't make my problems seem too small and I appreciated getting a call after the group therapy was finished. I didn't feel very close to the therapists or like I had enough time to get advice that was tailored to my situation. For example I was worried about relapse but I didn't get a chance to make a plan of what I would do if things started getting worse.

Suggested improvements
I would have appreciated knowing that having couples counseling would have disqualified me from having my own therapy. Being discharged suddenly after disclosing this made me feel rejected and unsafe to disclose anything to the therapists again. For that reason I would probably not come to this service again if I had a relapse and it puts me off getting talking therapies from anyone again because I don't feel I can trust the therapists to treat me as an individual. I didn't even get a phone call to talk about my options, just an email. It was too abrupt in my opinion

Review of Talking Therapies (OLD)
22nd March 2023


overall the chats were helpful to some extent, but I felt I would have been in a better place mentally with a face to face meeting had it have been possible, my big problem is since I lost my wife of 53 yrs, a year or so ago and now I lost my lovely dog, is the feeling not only of the loss, but the feeling of isolation, I am making the effort to get out for a coffee, and or meals 2/3 a week, and I see more of my 2 girls, either they visit me or i go to them, bearing in mind they have there own lives to lead.

Suggested improvements
as I mentioned above, nothing else realy.

I felt like I did more listening than talking & the therapist didn’t manage to get to the real issues. I don’t feel any better or have any tools to help me going forward

Suggested improvements
Listen and ask more questions rather than talk

Treatment not suitable for my needs, too long between appointments, Given work books but not much information on how to use them, appointments too short and just a rerview of the last few weeks.

Suggested improvements
Better explaination of how to use work books,longer appointments.

My therapist was amazing. I never felt like I have ever been listened to the way [name removed] listened to me. I have quite a lot of trauma and he’s the first person to not make me feel like it’s in my head. He was very understanding of my trauma and knew how to approach me and when I needed a tough therapist.

Suggested improvements
The service overall needs to be better. I have been through talking therapies before and I didn’t feel like i was listened to. How the service runs isn’t amazing. I think 20 sessions isn’t always viable.
