Waiting times

Our waiting times are 2 to 4 weeks.

Our clinically trained IAPT practitioners (Talking Therapists) and Health Psychologists, located within or very close to the GP’s surgeries deliver this service. All therapist are fully qualified with the LTC top training from Sheffield University.

The referrals will be generated by working with GP’s and through the MDT pathway. We are already part of the OMNIA MDT in the East. This has been an effective way of working to identify the needs of service users for the most appropriate therapy.

We accept self-referrals, this will be done via an assessment to ensure the service users are appropriate for the LTC pathway, confirming details with the GP before an intervention is proposed.
