People who have Long Term Conditions (LTC’s) are more likely to experience anxiety and low mood, and these emotional difficulties can make the physical symptoms of their LTC worse.
Physical symptoms caused by a LTC can be distressing and difficult to control, and this often leads to worry, overthinking, avoidance, and withdrawal.
Experiencing these symptoms can understandably reduce a person’s quality of life. Please know that you are not alone, and we want to support you in taking the steps to manage your emotional wellbeing and physical health condition.
If you would like support then please make a self-referral here by selecting your NHS service.
Once we receive your referral, we can book you in for an initial telephone conversation to discuss what support may be best for your difficulties.
