About Tyneside Mind
Founded in 1981, Tyneside and Northumberland Mind have over 40 years of experience in providing effective mental health services to people across Tyneside and Northumberland.
Tyneside & Northumberland Mind exists to promote positive mental health, providing flexible, responsive and sustainable support services.
We put people first by involving service users, carers and the local community. We do all this to make it possible for people who experience mental distress to live full lives and play their full part in society.
Wellbeing and Resilience
Wellbeing involves having positive self-image and esteem. Taking steps to build your resilience and to look after your wellbeing can help you deal with pressure and reduce the impact that stress has on your life.
We provide accessible and ongoing mental health support across our community and deliver a range of activities and projects, including peer-led support groups, facilitated wellbeing groups, courses and one-to-one support.
Why we need Resilience
Resilience, which is directly related to wellbeing, is about coping with and adapting to new situations. Resilience is important because it can help to protect against the development of some mental health problems. Resilience isn’t just your ability to bounce back but also your capacity to adapt to challenging or difficult times and situations. Our resilience gets tested daily; some days can be more challenging. We can help you take the steps and understand the strategies to develop your resilience.
Tyneside Mind: Support
We offer practical and emotional support in a non-judgemental environment. As well as receiving support from staff, you will be given the opportunity to share your feelings and experiences with like-minded people to build confidence, encourage independence and make a positive step on the road to recovery.
Emotional Resilience
We provide a range of support to teach you how to overcome life’s everyday challenges. Techniques will help you to remain in control when coping with difficult thoughts and feelings or facing personal challenges. Sessions provide a mutually supportive environment to help improve your confidence, mental health and general wellbeing.
