Talking to someone shouldn’t feel difficult
When you’re struggling mentally, even taking the first step can feel overwhelming.
Virtual appointments can make accessing support feel more manageable — whether that’s speaking from home, during a work break, or somewhere you feel safe and comfortable.
You don't need a GP referral - and for many people, talking over the phone or video can feel less intimidating than attending face-to-face appointments.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. You can book mental health appointments directly without needing a GP referral.
A mental health practitioner is a qualified healthcare professional with a degree in mental health nursing. They are trained to support people experiencing challenges such as stress, anxiety, low mood, burnout and other mental health concerns.
Yes. Your appointments are confidential, and anything you discuss with your clinician or therapist will be handled privately and securely.
The only exception is if there are serious concerns about your safety or someone else’s safety. In these situations, the clinician may need to contact emergency services, a crisis team or another appropriate support service to help keep you safe.
If your clinician feels you would benefit from additional or ongoing support, we may refer you to our partner HelloSelf for further guidance and therapy support, depending on your needs and preferences.
