When anxiety is triggered, it can be easy to overthink a situation, causing more worry over what some physical symptoms might mean.
If thoughts, and feelings about health are starting to dominate your everyday life, it could be time to seek support. Typed CBT encourages you to challenge negative thought patterns and provides coping strategies.
You can self-refer to typed therapy with ieso.It's confidential and available free through the NHS.
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, like the comfort of your sofa 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.
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:

I was initially unsure about online therapy and how it would work, but the rapport with my online therapist was soon built. I can honestly say that from the work I undertook at the beginning of my sessions, my progress, even over a short number of weeks, was really noticeable.
Self-referral is available in your area. Self-referring allows you to access online therapy quickly and easily without the need to visit your GP. Once you have self-refered and created your account, complete your questionnaires. We will then find the best therapist for your needs.
Chat with your therapist. They’ll create a treatment programme designed just for you and will help you set goals, break down issues and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviour patterns.
Between sessions you’ll use the new skills your therapist has taught you in real life. Your therapist will track your progress using questionnaires before each session and target the most persistent and troubling areas.
Your therapist will help you monitor change and target the most persistent and upsetting areas.
I looked forward to speaking to my therapist every week who helped me talk through the issues I was having. She made me realise that I was actually quite normal for feeling the way I felt. Something which I hadn’t heard in a long time. I’m so grateful for this service and the help I received.

Was great to talk to someone once a week who listened and actioned your worries and anxieties with tasks for the week and how to overcome them. I am in a much better place and have been given the resources and information to carry on by myself.
Easy to book and the Therapist that I was assigned was amazing and genuinely felt they cared about my wellbeing. Couldn't recommend more
I was listened to, supported and guided by a professional, empathic and non judgemental therapist. I was not rushed or pushed into doing things I was not ready for e.g activities. I slowly managed to gain some self confidence and self worth which I am still working on. I am now able to slowly move forward after the trauma that took me to utilise this service.
