For Professionals
The offer
Wellness in Mind is a specialist service working with those over the age of 17 and a half in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire who are experiencing mild to moderate mental ill health.
Our service offers emotional support, psychoeducation and individual interventions focused on coping skills and building resilience. The service is staffed by Wellbeing and Recovery Workers who are trained in different mental health approaches. The service also offers short term practical peer support, or longer term emotional support through peer befrienders.
Wellness in Mind is delivered by Framework, and the team can work closely with other specialist services to signpost clients towards help around practical issues affecting their wellbeing, such as housing or finances.
Wellness in Mind does not provide counselling, psychotherapy or long-term structured interventions.
Who does Wellness in Mind support?
Wellness in Mind can support anyone over the age of 17 and a half with an address or GP within Nottinghamshire or Nottingham City.
We primarily support those with mild to moderate mental health difficulties, but operate a “no wrong door” approach and can support those with a higher level of need to access more specialist services where required.
We are also able to support people whose mental health challenges may be affected by complex circumstances, such as homelessness or substance use.
Clients referred to Wellness in Mind do not require a formal mental health diagnosis.
Who can refer?
We are open to self referrals from patients, but can also accept referrals by any professional or concerned other, such as a friend or family member. Referrals are often received from social prescribers, support workers, GPs and other health professionals.
Wellness in Mind operates a drop in service throughout the week, where self-referring clients can access support there and then, with no waiting list or appointment needed.
For online self and professional referrals, there is a short wait while the referral is allocated to one of the team. We aim to respond to online referrals within two working days.
Professional referrals can be made through our referral form here.
