Employment Support | NHS West Sussex Talking Therapies

You can access employment advice whether you are employed or unemployed, once you have had your assessment and you are either waiting for or in treatment.

You can receive specialist advice either face-to-face or over the phone. All advice is bespoke to your circumstances.

While our advisors do not offer legal advice, they can help with a range of workplace issues including:

Bullying

Return to Work

Workplace Stress

Discrimination

Flexible Working

Reasonable Adjustments

If you are currently out of work, the team can advise you on interview skills, job searching advice, benefits signposting, and CV signposting.

Our advisors can also signpost you to third sector organisations if we are unable to resolve your difficulty.

No matter how big or small your employment difficulties are, we can help. You can ask for employment support during you assessment or at any stage of your treatment.

How are you feeling?

I feel anxious or worried

Anxiety is a feeling of worry, fear or unease. It is often a feeling associated with the future, and worries about what is going to happen.

I feel stressed

Stress is a normal part of everyday life, and a moderate amount of stress is actually productive for us. However, there can be times when we start to feel the strain of juggling multiple demands, responsibilities and life events.

I feel depressed or low

We all feel low from time to time. Life is full of ups and downs, and it's normal to feel sad and upset - it is part of being human. But these feelings can take over and become a problem for us.
