I used this service and received CBT therapy. My experience was a Young, inexperienced therapist who failed to take me outside for exposure therapy, that didn't happen at all when it's supposed to be fundamentally important within CBT!

The overall quality of the service is beyond unacceptable, half of the session every week consisted of the therapy being random conversation which wasn't particularly relevant to my problems.

I found the therapy sessions to be woefully lacking focus, and my mental health problems make it difficult for me to concentrate, this lack of focus on behalf of the therapist compounded my concentration issues!

Another local organisation called Healthy Minds have provided myself exactly the same type of therapy and it is miles ahead of North Staffs MIND with experienced, professional and highly trained staff that are very good at getting to the roots of the problems and they receive a tiny fraction of the budget that MIND have available to them.
