We assessed digitally enabled therapies for anxiety, depression and medically unexplained symptoms which offer the potential to expand these services further.
How long is the wait for CBT on NHS?
The 28 day maximum waiting standard for NHS psychological therapy services should be a right for everyone who needs them. This should be enshrined in the NHS Constitution, as this is the mental health equivalent to the waiting time for people with physical health problems in the NHS.
