How can I get referred to Lime Trees?

To see someone at Lime Trees you need to be referred, unfortunately you cannot just ring up Lime Trees or a PMHW and make an appointment. If you want to see someone your GP can refer you. Your school or health visitor can also send us a referral.

How Does it Work?

The referral will first go to a primary mental health worker. They are the local link workers who come out and see you. They will talk with you and decide with you what might be helpful.
This might mean:

the primary mental health worker meets with you again
you see someone from Lime Trees
you talk about other services that might be helpful
you decide you don’t want to see anyone

If you decide seeing someone at Lime Trees might be helpful, the primary mental health worker will send them a referral. Someone at Lime Trees will then send you an appointment letter. The appointment might be at Lime Trees, Selby War Memorial, Castlegate or at home. It depends on where you live and what worker/team is seeing you.

What happens next depends on the type of worker or team you are seeing. Click on the name of a worker or team in the list above to find out what they do or find out what kinds of treatments we offer and what happens when you see someone.
