Recovery Approaches to Mental Health

We are a small and personal collective of experts by profession and experience working in the wider fields of Mental Health, Social Care and Young People’s Services. We aim to provide training and consultancy with practical helpful responses that avoid much of the psychobabble and over-professionalized language that is currently hampering much of psychiatry and psychotherapy. We believe that helping the person towards their own recovery is a simple process that is over technicalised in order that professionals and helpers can own the experience rather than the important person, the one who should be at the centre.

All our training is known for its

Practicality
Innovation
Mutual and human approach
Humour and plain speaking
Critical and honest approach
Research breadth
Links to workbooks and self-help approaches, many authored by ourselves
