MindPath is a 1-2-1 guided self-help programme, designed to support people at the earliest possible stage before mental illness becomes enduring, as well as building skills, confidence and knowledge to implement sustainable healthy habits that build resilience.
You’ll work through a range of practical guidebooks (written and designed by people with lived experience) with one of our experienced peer support workers, in your own home, a chosen venue you’re comfortable in (Ryedale residents only) or sessions can be delivered digitally or via telephone.

▶ Building Boundaries
▶ Managing Depression
▶ Recovery and Resilience
▶ Managing Stress
▶ A Parents Guide to Understanding Youth Mental Health
▶ Managing Mental Health Alongside Chronic Physical Health Issues

You can also request copies of the guidebooks to work through yourself at your own pace. Some topics will be available in small group sessions online.
