Caraline is funded by both Luton and Bedfordshire NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). Our services include a full assessment, a 6 session Eating Behaviour Group, individual sessions, and support groups for both clients and their carers. Our Eating Behaviour Group is a structured group focussed intervention, based on cognitive behavioural principles. It aims to enable group members to explore the triggers of their problematic eating behaviour by exploring a number of internal and external factors. Clients can self-refer to Caraline and we see clients from 17 years old - please note there is no upper age limit for people wishing to access our services.
Whilst Caraline is partly funded by the local NHS, this does not cover the full service that we offer to our clients. In order to continue to provide the current level of service and expand our range of provision, we need to ask clients to contribute to the treatment they receive. However, please note that you will not be refused treatment if you do not have the means to do so. Please contact us to discuss our charges further.
If you do not live in Luton or Bedfordshire and would like to access our services please speak to our Office Manager Elaine who will be able to inform you about our service costs.
