The ELPsych! site has been in need of a makeover for quite a while now.  I’ve spent the last few weeks trying to do something about this whilst trying to keep the site’s content available to those that wanted it.  This led to a bit of a mess, but I think I’ve finally managed to tidy it up a bit!

Much of the content remains the same at the moment because I’ve been concentrating on presentation.  I have made quite a major change to the Link Directory though, bringing it into the main site rather than running a “sub-site” just for the directory.  Hopefully this will make it a bit more accessible.

Of course, the tweaking never really stops but the next job is to add some of the content that’s been suggested to me over the last couple of months.  Please remember to let me know about anything you’ve found useful on the web.  If it’s good, lets tell as many people as we can!

As part of the improvements to ELPsych! I have adjusted the way that links are shown on the site.  Previously, the link directory was a separate website with Directory software installed.  This attracted far too much spam as companies tried to get themselves listed.  Since almost none of them had anything to do with Mental Health, we didn’t really want these links on our site.

The Link Directory is now part of this website making it much easier to manage.  However, I still want suggestions to be added.  If you have come across a website or internet resource that you have found useful, please let me know so that other can benefit as well.

You’ll find the Directory Here.  Use the comments section at the bottom of that page to add your suggestions.

We’ve heard a few comments recently suggesting it’s not as easy to find Psychological Therapies as it should be.  When we looked a bit closer, it was easy to see why!

There is a nice big map just inside the Aberlady Road entrance to the Herdmanflat Site.  It points the way to the Adult Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) but doesn’t list Psychological Therapies separately.  Since our front door is different, this is confusing.

To find us, follow the road through the car park down the right of the building.  You’ll see our door before you get to the bottom of the road (it’s the only door!).

Here’s an interactive map to help.  You’ll need flash installed for it to work.

Hope this helps.  If not – Let us know!
