Support, Research, & Training.

The Psychology Community Research Clinic (PCRC) is a clinical research project in the School of Psychology. We learn about psychological therapies and human wellbeing through offering psychological support for those who might need help with an emotional or psychological concern. We provide:

  • Therapies for anxiety, depression, low mood, public

    speaking anxiety and more. 

  • Single session consultations. 

  • Group Therapy  

  • Workshops on anxiety, public speaking, mood management,

    mindfulness and exam stress 

  • Research in Mental Health, Psychological therapies and human potential.
     
  • Our detailed 2022 PCRC Information Leaflet outlines our full project.  


The staff leading the PCRC are BPS Chartered and HCPC Registered Psychologists, experienced in helping those in need. Some of our clinic staff are in training to become Counselling Psychologists.

We are Here To Help

Our team are supervised in providing therapies for a wide variety of psychological concerns, including: confidence building, public speaking, stress management, improving mood, depression, anxiety, bereavement, panic attacks, & relationship worries.

  • Psychological Therapies (e.g.: CBT, Counselling, Psychotherapy) provide a confidential space in which a therapist listens and helps you find ways to deal with emotional or psychological issues.
  • Single Session Consultations / Brief Therapy (e.g.: booking one session of solution focused support at a time).

Our Role in the University

The project is owned by the Department of Psychology, and is run by the senior clinical staff. Our activities are reviewed by the leadership team of the Centre for Psychological Research. We are separate from other support services in the university (such as SSW). On occasion we may ask for your permission for us to coordinate activities with the Student Support & Wellbeing team (SSW), so we can support you in the best possible way.
