We work with you on managing and reducing anxiety around getting out. We work with you to develop and implement graded exposure programs. The goals, progress and development of the program will be evaluated on a continuous basis in order to maximise positive outcomes and ensure the work we are doing together has a purpose, is meaningful, productive and remains focused on recovery.

We work with you to increase involvement in such things as education, training, volunteering opportunities, leisure activities and increasing social contact. We work with you to explore and identify individual areas of interest. We help with practical arrangements and provide emotional support and positive encouragement of participation in your identified activity.
