What to expect
Here’s how we support adults at JM Mental Health, step by step.
Initial phone consultation
A short phone call with our a Consultant Psychiatrist to talk through your concerns, check whether psychiatry is the right option and whether we’re the right fit for you.
Registration
If we agree to go ahead, we’ll send registration forms and questionnaires, and request information from your GP so we have a full picture of your mental and physical health.
First appointment
Up to 2 hours to explore your current difficulties, how they started, what has and hasn’t helped, and how they affect your daily life. We’ll share our initial thoughts and recommended next steps.
Ongoing care
We tailor follow‑up appointments to your needs. Where helpful, we can work with other professionals and discuss options such as talking therapies, lifestyle changes and medication.
