Making an appointment

You can be referred by any member of our rehabilitation team. Your first appointment will include an assessment of the nature and extent of your difficulties and may include an assessment of the mood and coping strategies you are currently using to deal with your injury.

We will then discuss with you a plan of how to address any difficulties that have been identified. Research and clinical experience has shown that discussing problems in a confidential environment, focussed on your individual needs, helps people to cope and adjust to their injury in the long term.

Issues discussed with our clinical psychologists are confidential and will only be discussed, if relevant, with other members of the clinical team. Your notes will also be kept separate from your medical records.

You are able to stop seeing our clinical psychologists at any time; this will not affect your overall treatment at the centre.
