What our staff say about us...
Lucy, Community Support Worker
“Step One is a rewarding place to work with a great friendly supportive team. A varied job that changes every day. One where you can go home at the end of the day and know you’ve made a difference.”
“It is so rewarding working with individuals and watching them grow in ability and self-confidence throughout their rehabilitation journey at Cypress. To see individuals better able to manage their mental health on a daily basis, whilst moving forward with meaning and hope in their lives, is a real privilege.”
Ashley, Mental Health Nurse
“The team is amazing. All the team are really approachable and really patient centered. I also enjoy working with the patients – meeting different people and hearing different stories and supporting them to move forward with their lives. There’s good training opportunities too. Recently in my supervision I was talking about the availability of psychological training and I was put on a DBT course which is psychological therapy training.”
