Meet the team


Alex Viazovskis, Health Care Assistant 

“The team has been amazing ever since I joined. Everyone is compassionate and takes time, energy and effort to explain how things work, happy to share their knowledge and  experience. It is a pleasure to work with people who are great listeners and are constantly looking for improvement in the service.
The other thing I like is the concern about the service user and recovery, the willingness to ensure that the patients are well and getting the best care.
This was my first job in NHS and I didn't know what to expect, but there is so much training provided,
I was and am able to shadow different professionals in initial assessments that it is such a great opportunity to learn, participate in MDT, referral reviews, team training, meetings and much more! Pleasure to be here!”

Lucy Panayi, Counselling Psychologist

It’s a privilege to help people make the changes they want to see in their lives. To plant a seed and help them grow. To work with a human life, someone who is suffering – I will do anything I can to alleviate that. I get to see about three people each day, on site, and I love my job.
