Employment.jpgMany people experience employment difficulties that impact on their wellbeing. Work and unemployment can affect our mental health; it can cause stress, worry, anxiety or depression.

The NHS Talking Therapies employment advice service can help you if you are experiencing any of these issues. The service is free and available to anyone aged 16+ registered with a GP in North East Lincolnshire who is accessing talking therapies from NHS Talking Therapies.

We can help if you are:

  • Unemployed and seeking new opportunities
  • Employed and experiencing problems at work such as unfair treatment or bullying
  • Facing redundancy
  • Struggling to get the right support you need at work

We provide bespoke action plans to address your needs, confidence building, CV support and interview skills. We can also liaise directly with your employer with you or on your behalf. This service is offered to compliment the therapy the service user receives from their therapist, with the aim of empowering an individual to overcome their challenges and achieve their potential.

With the proper support, employment can be very good for youroverall wellbeing. Employment and training gives a structure to the day, as well as income, a sense of purpose, opportunities to advance your goals. All of this can help you raise your self esteem and improve your confidence.
