Integrated Approach: The service integrates mental health treatment with employment support, ensuring that individuals receive comprehensive care. This includes therapeutic interventions alongside employment advice. 

Practical Assistance: Advisors help with practical aspects such as CV writing, interview preparation, and job applications. They also provide support in managing workplace issues and making necessary adjustments. This may include supporting individuals to communicate with employers to create a supportive work environment i.e. reasonable adjustments and promoting mental health awareness in the workplace.
