York and Selby Talking Therapies
This service offers talking therapy available through self referral to help with some mental health related symptoms which do not come under secondary care. They offer a range of therapies as brief interventions. Talking Therapies is a national NHS programme designed to increase the availability of talking therapy treatments recommended by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE). Talking Therapies seeks to use the least intrusive method of care possible to treat people. This is often called a ‘stepped care model’ and means that the patient is generally offered a low-intensity therapy in the first instance. Examples of low-intensity treatment would include computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (cCBT), psycho-educational courses, guided self-help – over the phone or face to face. You can find more information about what help is available and how to self refer.
