Social Workers work with individuals, families and communities to improve their social wellbeing. Social wellbeing affects how people feel about themselves, how well they function and the overall quality of their life. Social Workers and Social Work assistants seek to identify and address social factors that may affect you physical or mental health and general wellbeing.

We can provide support on:

• Isolation or loneliness
• Carer support
• Relationship difficulties
• Parenting difficulties
• Housing difficulties
• Stress
• Bereavement and trauma
• Alcohol and drug concerns
• Financial difficulties

Good mental health is just as important as good physical health, and maintaining it should be a priority for everyone. One in four people in Northern Ireland will experience problems that affect their mental health. 

Your Mental Health Practitioner is an expert who can:

• Provide an initial assessment
• Advise on management of your mental health
• Offer short term treatment
• Direct you to appropriate services
