General psychiatry focuses on diagnosing and treating a wide range of mental health conditions that affect mood, behaviour, and daily functioning. These conditions can develop due to genetic, environmental, or neurological factors and may impact overall well-being.
Common conditions treated under general psychiatry include:
Symptoms can vary widely but may include:
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, a psychiatric assessment can help determine the most appropriate course of action.
Treatment in psychiatry is tailored to each individual’s needs and may involve a combination of approaches to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
Treatment is individualised, meaning that not every option is suitable for everyone. Our clinicians work closely with patients to find the most effective approach.
Our psychiatric services are entirely private and do not fall under NHS care or the Right to Choose pathway. This means:
While a referral from your GP is not necessary to book an appointment, we encourage patients to keep their GP informed.
Mental health treatment is most effective when patients are actively involved in their care. This includes:
Due to the nature of psychiatric care, all video consultations are non-refundable once booked.

On the day of your assessment please ensure you are in a private space. Our clinicians will not proceed with the assessment if they are not satisfied with the surroundings. For example, you cannot be in your vehicle. It is best advised to attend the assessment in a private place with a strong network. You will be asked to present your ID at the beginning of the session.
Unfortunately, in this instance, we will not be able to proceed with a formal treatment plan for you, and in some cases a diagnostic decision may not be possible.
We would love to provide an accurate timespan for this. However, due to the high demand on NHS services we understand that it may take longer than expected. That said, we do encourage our patients to provide their GP with a gentle nudge to ensure that the timelines are not too long and cumbersome and have found that this often works.
During the assessment process your clinician may identify the need for further investigations prior to a diagnostic decision or the commencement of a treatment plan.
Your clinician may instruct our Support Team to obtain a consent form from you to contact your GP to obtain your medical records. This may typically occur if your clinician has identified any contraindications that may affect a proposed treatment plan, for example.
Once we've received your medical records your clinician will review them and instruct a member of our Support Team to liaise with you as to your next steps.

If your clinician finds that no further investigation is required they will lead the discussion on the treatment options available to you.
