What to expect from Psychology<\/h3>\n

A clinical psychologist will typically use a range of different methods during assessment to gain a comprehensive understanding of the ‘formulation’ or story of how biology, circumstance and personality maintain difficulties. <\/p>\n

 A clinical psychologist may ask to liaise with others involved in your care including other healthcare professionals and family or carers, whilst ensuring your confidentiality is respected, to optimise care provision and risk management. Following assessment, recommendations for how to resolve the distress are made. This may include evidence-based talking therapies, in line with NICE guidelines (e.g. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), along with suggestions for lifestyle changes. You take an active role in setting your goals and collaborating in your intervention should you choose to pursue therapy.<\/p>\n
