Local Primary Mental Health Service

What we do

The Primary Care Mental Health Support Services are aimed at individuals of all ages who are experiencing mild to moderate, or stable, severe and enduring mental health problems. We are based in five locations – Rhondda, Taff Ely, Cynon Valley, Merthyr Tydfil and Bridgend.

Can anyone use this service?

Primary Care Mental Health Support Services operates either within, or alongside, existing GP practices. Prior to an assessment being offered we will need an up to date referral from the registered GP practice.

What to expect

We provide goal focused mental health assessments and treatment by way of short-term psychological interventions which can be delivered individually or in group settings.

We can provide information and advice to individuals and carers as well as signposting them to other sources of support, including third sector organisations. We support onward referral and co-ordination of next steps with secondary mental health services, where this is felt to be appropriate for an individual.
