Description

This booklet provides information for people who feel depressed or unhappy, or who have emotional problems they cannot sort out on their own. It tells about the psychological help - or talking therapies - that are available for adults on the National Health Service (NHS). It explains what talking therapies are and what they aim to do. The information in this booklet is based on evidence from research studies on psychological therapies. They have been turned into guidelines for GPs on treatment options for people with emotional difficulties or mental health problems. The booklet also includes evidence and quotes from services users; this comes from research by the Mental Health Foundation.
