Having a paid job can really help to improve your health and overall wellbeing. Individual Placement and Support (IPS) is a proven employment support approach that helps people find and keep jobs, while also receiving mental health treatment and support.
Why is IPS so effective?
Designed to break down barriers and revolutionise the way we connect people with work, IPS employment support is a proven methodology that prioritises a person’s unique goals, aspirations, and abilities alongside mental health support.
The process is person-centred. You’re treated like a person, not a number.

It’s about finding out what that person's strengths are and reminding them what they’re good at. Because, they’ve been reminded so much what they [fail] at…. And just instilling that faith in them again to believe in themselves.

So engaging and great how you could put the skills discussed in the morning into practice in the afternoon.

My employment consultant would meet me at the same location as my mental health team to help make the process easier.
