Psychotherapist

At Balance Street we have a visiting psychotherapist who is highly qualified and a member of the BACP & UKCP.
Balance Street offers,

  • Individual therapy
  • Couple therapy

An assessment is by the psychotherapist made prior to the start of therapy sessions. Fees are available on request.

Cardiac Rehabilitation Service

In 2003 we were delighted to be involved with a pioneering Cardiac Rehabilitation Service through close work with Queen's Hospital Burton and East Staffs PCT.

Patients who have had heart attacks or heart surgery will now be able to have their rehabilitation at the surgery rather than a 40 mile round trip to the hospital.
