Adult Services

There are many reasons why someone may struggle and poor mental health can affect us all and in lots of different ways.

We know everyone is unique. That’s why the mental health support we provide will be personal to you.

What will happen when I contact FDAMH?

When you contact us, you will be offered a first appointment, which could be a phone call or in person. Together we will talk about what sort of support will suit you best and plan a way forward.

If FDAMH isn’t the right place for you, we’ll tell you about other services instead.

What sort of support will I receive?

Our team offers a variety of services and it’s important to match you with the right support at the right time.

You might only use one type of support, or you might use a combination of services from FDAMH as you move along in your recovery.

This may include:

Social Prescribing
Our Social Prescribing Service provides one-to-one holistic support aimed at promoting self-management, recovery, and overall wellbeing for people experiencing poor mental health. During sessions, participants are supported to work through the issues that matter most to them such as housing, finances, and other social factors that directly impact mental health. Using a person-centred approach, the service equips people with tools and techniques to problem-solve, build confidence, and explore new opportunities.
Psychoeducational Groupwork
Our Psychoeducational Groupwork provides individuals with opportunities to deepen their understanding of mental health, enhance self-awareness through reflection and exercises, and gain practical tools and techniques to self-manage their wellbeing. Over the past year, participants have attended groups including CBT for Anxiety, Seasons for Growth, Promoting Better Sleep, Improving Self-Esteem & Communication, and Positive Wellbeing. In response to emerging needs, new groups have been introduced covering areas such as menopause and chronic pain management, reflecting a shift towards offering the support that people need. We have a selection of courses running throughout the year.
Counselling
Our Counselling Service provides tailored one-to-one support for individuals experiencing challenges with their mental health and wellbeing. The service offers up to nine weekly sessions delivered face to face or remotely, giving people accessible and flexible support at the time they need it most. Our trained counsellors draw on a range of therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Person-Centred Therapy, Talking Therapy, and Psychodynamics. This breadth of expertise enables us to respond to individual needs and preferences, helping clients explore and understand their experiences while developing effective coping strategies.
Social Spark
The Social Spark service provides a wide range of social, creative, and outdoor activities for people across Falkirk District who may be experiencing loneliness, isolation, or poor mental and physical health. Our small groups are delivered by experienced staff and supported by volunteers, many of whom have previously used FDAMH services themselves and developed the skills and confidence to become volunteers or group leaders. This peer-led element brings lived experience into the heart of the service, creating safe, welcoming spaces where people feel understood and supported.
Family Carers Service
FDAMH continues to provide a wraparound service for families and carers, ensuring they have access to the right support to manage the challenges that impact mental health and wellbeing. This year has seen a significant rise in referrals from families supporting loved ones affected by neurodiversity, conflict within the home, and wider mental health difficulties. With this in mind, all of our practitioners have undertaken intensive training to deliver appropriate, meaningful, and tailored support for each family unit. The addition of FDAMH’s new Young Person’s and Family Counsellors has also expanded our ability to deliver one-to-one, bespoke support for those who might not be ready to join group sessions.

Initial Assessment Service
All clients who refer to FDAMH through our bespoke online system (which can be accessed via our website) are offered an initial telephone assessment. Once the referral is complete, each client can book their own appointment at a time that works for them. FDAMH aims to provide assessments within 5 days of referral.
Distress Brief Intervention
The Forth Valley DBI Service provides a timely, person-centred response for those experiencing distress. Our DBI team then contact the individual within 24 hours of referral. This rapid engagement is essential in supporting people at their most vulnerable; helping to reduce distress, prevent escalation and contribute to suicide prevention.

The main thing is that we’ll make sure the support you receive is tailored to your needs.

If you or someone you care about may need some help or if you are unsure of where to turn, please get in touch. We’re here to help.
