A new team of mental health experts has been created to serve communities in Ottery, Sidmouth and Honiton.
It aims “to promote positive mental health and emotional wellbeing in order to support patients to move from surviving to thriving”.
The service is offering a new approach for supporting mental health and wellbeing. It uses a holistic approach to look at all aspects of an individual’s life and how these aspects may be impacting that individual. This approach uses goal setting, coaching and care co-ordination to help individuals feel in control of their own health and wellbeing. The service will explore individuals’ mental health, general health, wellbeing, lifestyle factors and any barriers that may be preventing them from moving forward in their health and wellbeing journey.
