The Educational Psychologists who work for Falkirk are employed to provide a service to children and young people up to the age of 24. The support we may provide to adults includes
- Advice to the parents and adults working with those children to whom we provide a service.
- parent programmes for parents of children with significant additional support needs
- Advice to young adults resident in Falkirk, usually who have been known to our service but not exclusively so, up to the age of 24
While our training does cover a broad range of psychological issues that are relevant for supporting adults including concerns about mental health, there are other services that are better placed to provide a direct service to an adult. You may find the advice and contacts on this page helpful.
It is advisable to check your local National Health Service Board’s website for information about service supporting Mental Health.
There is a directory of Mental Health services in Falkirk and Forth Valley, which may be helpful for adults that are resident in Falkirk or Forth Valley.

Still needing assistance?
If, as an adult, you remain concerned about your mental health and wellbeing and are not sure who to turn to, we would of course try to help. Please call the Falkirk Educational Psychology Service Number, who can put you in touch with an Educational Psychologist. It is likely we would recommend a particular local service to assist you.
