NHS long-term conditions (LTC) talking therapies

The NHS Doncaster talking therapies provides a specialised long-term conditions (LTC) service catering to adults diagnosed with long-term health conditions who may experience symptoms of depression, anxiety, or stress.

Our service offers various talking therapies, available either one-on-one or through workshops.

How we can help

Living with long-term health conditions can be challenging and affect emotional wellbeing. Stress, anxiety, or low mood may exacerbate physical symptoms, making management difficult. Understanding the mind-body connection can aid in managing these symptoms effectively.

Our LTC talking therapy service offers diverse treatment options, including face-to-face, telephone, virtual video appointments, and group therapy to ensure accessibility. Sessions’ length can be adapted to support individual needs.

We collaborate closely with other physical health teams, offering joint working appointments with healthcare professionals like specialist nurses to address both mental and physical health needs comprehensively.

For patients unable to attend in person, we offer home visit appointments.
