Online therapy is effective for many people, but it may not be suitable in all circumstances.

Both the online assessment form and the initial Zoom assessment help us determine whether our services are likely to be safe, appropriate, and beneficial for you.

Online therapy may not be suitable if:

  • You are experiencing a mental health crisis or require urgent intervention.
  • You are unable to keep yourself safe or require immediate support.
  • You require specialist services that cannot be safely provided online.
  • You do not have access to a private and confidential space for sessions.
  • You are unable to access the technology required for online appointments.
  • Your needs would be better met by another service or level of care.

If we believe another service would better meet your needs, we will discuss this with you and, where appropriate, provide information about alternative support options.

Please note that CPS Therapies is not an emergency or crisis service. If you require urgent support, please contact 999, NHS 111, your GP, or your local mental health crisis team.
