If you’re concerned that you may be experiencing anxiety, stress or worry, you can self-refer to typed Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with ieso. It's confidential and available free through the NHS.
When our mental wellbeing is generally OK, we tend not to think too much about it. But paying attention to our minds even when we're not struggling can make the difference between just 'getting through life', and really flourishing.
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:
It's very easy to find ourselves stuck in survival mode - especially after the challenges of the past couple of years. If we recognise, we're in a bit of a rut and want to move forward to a life that's more fulfilling and rewarding, it might be helpful to consider for a moment the differences between surviving and thriving.
In our blog, Jo Gray - ieso CBT therapist, shares some ideas and prompts to help you take better care of your mind from day to day - not just when you're experiencing difficulties.

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.
Was nervous to begin with, but my therapist made me feel at ease throughout my treatment. It was taken at my speed, every step was explained.
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.
