To Whom It May Concern,

Mrs Myers attended #12counseling sessions at Talking Therapies London Borough of Southwark. She was referred to our service to receive treatment for #depression, which had occurred following a #stressful period at work.

Mrs Myers told me she had suffered with #chronicanxiety since she was a child. She said she had learned to manage the anxiety, but it did sometimes #affect her ability to #write as she has a #tremor in her hand. However, Mrs Myers said this had not affected her #work life. She said she had been able to #manage it and this was evidenced by her long #employment history with the company #5years prior to this recent incident.
Mrs Myers depression seems to have #arisen in the context of a difficult period at work.

She said she felt #unfairly treated and she could not understand how her #colleagues had come to form their opinions about her. Mrs Myers had found this experience to be extremely #distressing and eventually #resigned from her job, as she felt she had no #alternative. Following the loss of her job, Mrs Myers became increasingly depressed and she told me she had found it #difficult to take care of herself.

This has left Mrs Myers with low-confidence, particularly in her work life. Mrs Myers is #fearful of going back into work as she #anxious about being #mistreatedand going through a similar situation again. When she was first referred to the service her scores on the questionnaires measuring depression and anxiety were indicative of #severe depression and anxiety.

Over the course of treatment, we #explored the impact of Mrs Myers’ work situation and how it had affected her. We explored the impact of this situation on her #marriage, where Mrs Myers found it hard to #cope as a result of being #overwhelmed by the difficulties in her work life. Mrs Myers also said this had affected some of her #friendships. Mrs Myers said her family were her main #support, but this was only over the telephone due to the distance between them.

As a result of this difficult work situation, Mrs Myers understandably #struggled to cope with life. However, she has been #committed to working through her difficulties and has made #improvements to her #wellbeing over the course of her treatment. Only reporting #mild symptoms of depression and anxiety at the end of treatment.

Yours sincerely

Maybe LEYF Nurseries might like to go to the Employment Tribunal and EAT and own up to making them a fool across the world. If in doubt go to Dr Maria Hudson Research Paper for the Policy Studies Institute. Recommendations to Acas. I am listening to Sir Cliff Richards talking about his experiences with the BBC. Funnily enough, I am at peace with myself since the death of my mother from dementia.
