NHS Talking Therapies

Perhaps you’re feeling stressed and struggling to control your worry? Do you experience feelings of panic or obsess about certain thoughts?

Help is out there.

There are a range of NHS talking therapies across Lancashire and South Cumbria which involve free groups, courses and one to one therapy to help you understand what you’re going through and build your confidence. You can self-refer into any of them, which means you don’t have to see your GP first.

Urgent Mental Health Crisis

Talking therapies are not crisis services. If you or a loved one are having a mental health crisis and need help straight away you can: 

  • call the mental health crisis line on 0800 953 0110,
  • contact the wellbeing helpline and texting services on 0800 915 4640 or by texting ‘Hello’ to 07860 022846 or,
  • dial 999 if you have harmed yourself.
