Supporting minds also offer courses that staff can access including:

Stress Control: If you are feeling a bit more stressed than usual and would like to learn some great ways, to deal with common problems like anxiety, depression, panicky feelings, poor sleep and poor wellbeing then sign up for the online Stress Control class.
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy: This eight-week online course combines traditional cognitive behavioural therapy with mindfulness techniques and meditation and teaches you how to pay attention to the present moment, rather than habitually getting caught up in ruminating about the past or worrying about the future, and learning new skills to let go of the negative thoughts that often precede a depressive relapse.
