Health professionals

We invite referrals of individuals who present with common mental health problems (e.g. depression, anxiety, relationship issues, loss, and bereavement) and distress or adjustment issues around long-term health conditions, diabetes and COPD. We offer a range of psychological interventions to those aged 18* and above who live in Newham or are registered with a Newham GP.

 

Referral criteria

We accept referrals for those aged over 18 and over only. We do not have an upper age limit and we actively encourage referrals for those over 65’s. However, older adults with age-related issues (e.g. dementia) should be referred to Mental Health Care for Older People.

Newham Talking Therapies are not a crisis service.  For a patient who is in crisis, a risk to self or others, access details of the emergency help.

Individuals with severe, enduring and complex mental health problems (e.g. psychosis, personality disorders, bipolar, risks to self and others) should be referred to:

Community Integrated Mental Health Service
