Stress Control

A SIX-WEEK CLASS ALL ABOUT STAYING ON TOP OF STRESS, ANXIETY, LOW MOOD AND MORE

This free drop-in course, run by NHS Lanarkshire Psychological Services, will help you develop skills and techniques to manage stress, anxiety, low mood, low confidence, and many more of the challenges of day-to-day living.

In autumn 2026, we are running Stress Control classes in Wishaw, Kirkmuirhill, East Kilbride, Bellshill, Airdrie, and Cumbernauld. Read on to find out more.

You do not have to live in a particular locality to attend Stress Control in that area: all classes are open to anyone living in North or South Lanarkshire. Health and Social Care staff working in Lanarkshire are also welcome.
