93% of UK adults identify with symptoms of burnout

Burnout, or emotional exhaustion, is the result of accumulated stress over time. Individuals experiencing prolonged periods of feeling stressed can become emotionally drained and overwhelmed, which can have a significant impact on our mental health.

If you are experiencing symptoms of stress or burnout and it is having an impact on your daily life, typed cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) can provide effective strategies to help you manage your symptoms and feel more like yourself again.

With ieso, you can self-refer to typed cognitive behavioural therapy available free through the NHS Talking Therapies.

Why typed therapy?

Typed therapy takes place online via a secure platform. As the sessions are typed, you do not have to speak to anyone, and no one will overhear your conversation. You won't need to worry about traveling to appointments, simply find a quiet place to begin your session.

Appointments are available 7 days a week, from 6 am to 11 pm, helping to work around your everyday life.  

Before each session, your therapist will check in with how you are, so we can tailor your treatment to be as effective as possible. Between sessions, we’ll ask you to keep a journal and do thinking exercises to help develop positive, long-term habits.  

Research shows a little work leads to better recovery and can help keep you feeling well after your therapy sessions have ended.

How it works

Our patients tell us typed therapy makes it easier to open up and reflect on their thoughts and behaviours than if they were sat in front of a therapist. The additional benefits of typed therapy include:

Flexible - appointments are available seven days a week, 6am – 11pm
Confidential - no video calling, just typing
No travel required - accessible from anywhere - all you need is a device that connects to the internet
Life friendly – access therapy in your own time. We fit sessions around your commitments
Guidance beyond therapy - learn practical CBT skills to use in day-to-day life

This is typed therapy...

I found the therapy very helpful when I was at a low point in my thoughts. The therapist I had in particular, was very caring, interested and genuinely concerned about my mental and physical welfare. I cannot praise this service enough.

What a wonderful and unique service. I had a lovely therapist who was amazing, she helped me completely turn my life around all through an instant messaging board. If anyone is considering this service, absolutely take up the opportunity.
