Open Mental Health
Are you or someone you know experiencing difficulties with mental health? Open Mental Health is here to help. They offer support 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to ensure that people struggling with their mental health in Somerset can access the right support at the right time.
Crisis Safe Space
Crisis Safe Space is an out-of-hours service provided by our partners Mind in Somerset and Second Step for anyone who feels like they are really struggling with their mental health. Instead of going to A&E, making an urgent doctor’s appointment, or suffering in silence, you can arrange a one-to-one session with a member of the Crisis Safe Space team who will be willing to listen and able to help you.
Sessions are held either face-to-face or virtually, depending on the location.
Somerset Talking Therapies
If you live in England and are aged 18 or over, you can access NHS talking therapies services for anxiety and depression.
A GP can refer you, or you can refer yourself directly without a referral.
