The Self-harm Outpatient Service is a national, specialist service based at the Maudsley Hospital. We provide outpatient assessment, treatment and care for people, aged 18 and over who repeatedly self-harm and that other services have found didfficult to help.
National services are for people who live throughout the United Kingdom.
We care for people who self-harm and who also have mental health problems, including eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and alcohol or drug abuse.
Our treatment programme includes psychotherapy and cognitive analytical therapy (CAT). CAT is a talking treatment that helps people to see how early relationships and experiences have affected how they see themselves, other people and how they behave. It focuses on a problem that is important to the person.
Our aim is to reduce self-harm incidents and help to maintain people’s health.
