Moving Minds is the provider of choice for the assessment and treatment of individuals with psychological problems, offering a one-stop service from referral to resolution. We specialize in the provision of effective rehabilitation services targeted at those suffering from psychological or mental health problems including posttraumatic stress disorders and trauma related conditions such as travel and other phobias. Moving Minds also takes on referrals related to stress, depression and anxiety which leads to absence from work. We work in tandem with:
- insurers and re-insurers
- claims management companies and case managers
- trade unions and employers' associations
- liability adjusters
- solicitors
- employee assistance schemes and human resources departments
- pension scheme trustees and managers
- the emergency services
Moving Minds differs from other health care organisations or employee assistance programmes in that we offer more than "counselling". In traditional counselling, individuals are offered the opportunity to talk over their problems.
Although counselling can be very helpful in helping people "getting things of their chest", it does not deal with the very specific symptoms of trauma, depression and related disorders. Moving Minds specialists have additional training to deal with these conditions and offer specialised psychological therapies backed up by current scientific research, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) Therapy and CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy).
Moving Minds provides a comprehensive range of services. We are committed to providing high standards of care that can be uniquely tailored to an individual or organisation's needs. The fact that the Moving Minds Clinical Directors and Consultants have extensive experience in assessing and treating psychological problems ensures that the highest standards can be maintained and allows the company to advocate a "hands-on" approach.
Our services include:
- Assessment and treatment of occupational stress, anxiety, depressive disorders and posttraumatic stress and related conditions
- Training and Workshops for managers, solicitors and claims handlers
- Psychological reports for Legal and other purposes
- Telephone helpline for insurers and individuals referred by insurers
Rehabilitation First
Moving Minds is a signatory to the Rehabilitation Code of Best Practice. This Code is increasingly widely accepted by both insurers and claimants. In practice this means that Moving Minds provides “an independent assessment report, which is prepared and used wholly outside the litigation process”. This assessment is carried out in agreement with the claimant’s solicitor and the insurer. The completed report is sent simultaneously both to the instructing solicitor and to the insurer.
The insurer is under an obligation to consider the recommendations made in the assessment report
