IAPT to NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression: new name, improved service

Locally, the service will be called NHS Coventry, Warwickshire and Solihull Talking Therapies.  The new website can be found at www.talkingtherapies.covwarkpt.nhs.uk 

The new name will be rolled out in all services across the country in 2023 and will be accompanied by the following tagline: for anxiety and depression.  This rebranding exercise will be critical in raising the profile of talking therapies and removing barriers to access.  The feedback analysis demonstrated that the name NHS Talking Therapies felt more accessible to the public and easy to understand, and that it described the scope of IAPT services better.  This was the key aim of this rebranding exercise from the beginning.
