How can we help?

When you come to Minds Matter, you’ll have an initial conversation with one of our friendly Mental Wellbeing Practitioners. They’ll talk to you about how you feel and what you need help with, so we can get you the right support that will help you to manage and overcome your difficulties that might be impacting on your mental health, including

  • Isolation and loneliness
  • Housing barriers
  • (Un)employment and the workplace
  • Physical health
  • Relationship issues
  • Debt and money management
  • Carer responsibilities
  • Adjusting to loss
  • Connecting with drug & alcohol services

We offer a range of support that will allow you to talk about your difficulties in a non-judgemental and supportive environment, including:

  • Guided self help
  • Peer support
  • Wellbeing chats
  • Workshops
  • Counselling

Throughout your support, you’ll have regular sessions – either online, face-to-face or over the phone – that will help you to address any current problems you’re experiencing. Our team will help you manage and overcome your negative feelings; and keep you motivated along your journey.

Where we see to you?

Our team are based all over Tameside and Glossop in different places, so you can meet them in various community locations. We also provide online workshops that you can access from home as well as coffee mornings in the local community.
