We run patient groups, consultation groups and psychosocial meetings with other medical specialties, we actively contribute to the wider Trust Schwartz team and support a range of therapeutic intervention modalities, including neuropsychology, family therapy, ACT, CFT, Narrative, CBT approaches and psychotherapeutic approaches.
