My name is Shaun Edwards and I am 37 years old and currently reside in stone Staffordshire. Over the last few years I have had many challenging experiences placed in front of me whether it be my mental health or addiction. In 2019 I was final diagnosed with dual emotional personality disorder after being in the mental health system numerous times dating back from April 2017 in which I have spent time over those years in and out of St George’s Hospital Stafford, while also being in contact with my local CPN. I’ve finally learned that no two days are ever the same but with my structures in place both from the mental health team and my family my diagnosis is no longer disabling to me as it once was.

Also at the start of this letter I mentioned addiction I am currently a recovering alcoholic who has been a service user myself with one recovery in Stafford as well as attending local AA meetings. Similar to my mental health iv learnt over time you have to take day by day and not over analyse situations which I was prone to doing.

I believe what I lack in work placement experience my life experience and personal experience of being a service user I would have that personal empathy and understanding to help and advise by drawing on my own situations to find the best solutions possible to engage with fellow addicts and mental health users.

As you will see from my C.V. Over the course of my employment has mainly been in engineering, but in the academic year of 2019-2020 I completed an open university course in psychology and counselling with which I passed the first year.

If there are any further questions you would like to ask me feel free to contact myself.

Kind regards Shaun Edwards

I hold a case load of clients with varying levels of vulnerabilities and complex needs. I engage with them and the rest of the service users through short term and on-going 1:1 interventions, workshops, drop-ins and support groups. Every intervention and contact is documented and referrals to other agencies are made if necessary. Within the team I liaise with partner agencies and services (probation, solicitors, mental health, healthcare, risk assessment boards, support agencies, housing etc) to further support the individuals care. We operate a holistic service and offer a warm, nonjudgmental approach and access to life skills, anxiety/emotional management, self-esteem, getting back to work, getting an education, healthcare issues and emotional support. Each person is given autonomy in their recovery plan and I encourage them and offer support for them to self actualise and develop a sense of self worth. I have also seconded in the healthcare department with the Emotional Support Team. During this time I managed a caseload of men with complex emotional needs and mood management issues. These interactions were also documented on SystmOne and communicated back to my healthcare supervisor.
