Designed by a psychological well-being practitioner for the NHS in Northants and a Doctor, these online groups provide support, education and practical help for those suffering from sleep issues, general anxiety, social anxiety, low mood, stress and distress. They are based on and draw from aspects of cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness and acceptance and commitment therapy. They are available for absolutely anybody in the Northants area who feels they could benefit.  Although the groups are designed for all ages we would also like to do some specialised groups for young people in the future, maybe starting with managing exam stress and anxiety.

The groups we run now are designed to be easy to access especially for the tech savvy younger generation (all you need is an e-mail address and a PC, laptop, smart phone or tablet), the mode of delivery means we can potentially reach huge numbers of people and certain groups of people who previously would have found it hard or impossible to do face-to-face group therapy.
