Positive Step

About

Support for mental health problems using self help materials, psycho educational courses & one to one sessions in partnership with GPs and primary care.

Story

Positive Step is a partnership service with staff employed by Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust, Second Step and Atos Healthcare.

We all feel low, worried or anxious at times, but sometimes this becomes worse and these problems stop us from living our life in the way we want to. You may feel like nothing can be done to help you feel better and taking the first steps can be hard.

We offer support for people with common mental health problems through self help materials, psycho educational courses and one to one. We work in partnership with GPs and colleagues in primary care.
