The programme offers a range of free talking therapy services, all of which are evidence-based and delivered by fully trained and accredited practitioners.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can search for and self-refer into your local IAPT service <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/service-search\/mental-health\/find-a-psychological-therapies-service\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>. <\/span>\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Is IAPT confidential\/who will know if I use it?<\/strong>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As IAPT is an NHS program, any information included in your referral and any information about your care going forward will be shared with your GP once your referral form has been submitted. Some statistical information is also shared with the Department of Health but this is completely anonymous and will not disclose your identity.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you opt to have one of our Responders complete an IAPT referral on your behalf during your Zoom call, none of the information you provide will be recorded by the Responder, or MyMynd, and will only be available to the IAPT service you are referring into and your GP once the referral form has been submitted.<\/span>\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Once I have submitted an IAPT referral, how long will I have to wait to speak to a therapist?<\/strong>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Waiting times vary between services but the most recent data suggests that 75% of people who refer into an IAPT service start treatment within 6 weeks of referral. However, there can be up to an 18 week wait for some services.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Why are the waiting times for some IAPT services so long?<\/strong>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Waiting times for services are dependent on a) the level of demand and b) the availability of practitioners in the area. Areas with greater demand have longer waiting times. By contacting your chosen service provider directly you should be able to find out how long the current waiting period is. Once you have submitted a self-referral form, some services also allow you to check your position in the queue for treatment.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>The Responder mentioned something called CBT, what is this?<\/strong>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CBT stands for cognitive behavioural therapy and is a type of psychotherapy which focuses on how your thoughts and beliefs affect your feelings and behaviour. CBT teaches you healthy coping skills for managing any difficulties you are facing alongside goal-setting strategies to help you move forward. You can find out more about CBT and how it works by clicking<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/mental-health\/talking-therapies-medicine-treatments\/talking-therapies-and-counselling\/cognitive-behavioural-therapy-cbt\/overview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Can I choose an IAPT service that doesn't offer CBT?<\/strong>\r\nYes. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whilst CBT is the most broadly used form of therapy for anxiety and depression, there are a number of other NICE recommended therapies which you might choose to try instead. These include things like counselling, couples and family therapy, group therapy and guided self-help. However, not all IAPT services will offer all five choices so the type of therapy you receive will also depend largely on what is available in your local area.

This will include a repository of additional resources such as articles, videos, TED talks, books and podcasts for each of the risk and resilience indicators used in the MyMynd assessment.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>"},{"heading":"Inside the modules","content":"<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>In the risk and resilience modules, what is the \"understanding your score\" section for?\r\n<\/strong>The \u201cunderstanding your score\u201d section is designed to give you a better understanding of what your score for each indicator on the MyMynd assessment actually means and how you can get the most out of the information and tools provided in the corresponding modules.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Why do the supplemental modules not have an \"understanding your score\" section?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scoring for the supplemental indicators works differently to the other indicators. The supplemental indicators only measure concern (e.g. that a potential threat to your mental health or wellbeing has been identified from your score) or no concern (there is likely no threat to your mental health or wellbeing based on your score).<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, without a follow-up call, we are not able to make a definitive judgement. It is your responsibility to decide whether your circumstances classify as a concern and to seek appropriate help.<\/span>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Do I have to read every section of a module or can I skip straight to the tools?<\/strong>\r\nWe recommend reading all of the information in the support modules so that you get a clear understanding of the indicator and why it\u2019s important for you to work on it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n\r\nHowever, it\u2019s not compulsory and you can skip straight to the tools by scrolling down.\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>What are the additional resources for?<\/strong>\r\nThe additional resources are there to provide further information on specific indicators. They include helpful additional articles and videos that we have identified related to these indicators.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\"><strong>How do I improve my Anxiety or Depression?<\/strong>\r\nWe have included specific tools in the Anxiety and Depression modules to help you both 1) <strong>cope in the moment<\/strong> (when experiencing any difficult emotions or distress), and 2) <strong>cope long-term<\/strong> (to find ways of reducing the frequency and intensity of those moments).<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n\r\nAdditionally, research shows that both of these indicators are closely linked to the other indicators in the MyMynd assessment. Take some time to revisit your assessment results and work on any other indicators which are scored as \u2018High Concern\u2019 or \u2018Some Concern\u2019 as this will likely have a positive effect on your overall mental health and wellbeing.\r\n\r\nIf you are experiencing significant distress and need to speak to someone it is important that you SEEK MEDICAL HELP from your GP as soon as possible or contact one of the emergency helplines provided in the Wellness Centre.\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>How do I know if I need an emergency helpline?<\/strong>\r\nIf you feel unable to wait to speak to someone or if your safety and wellbeing are in immediate danger, either call 999 in an emergency, or 101 if a non-emergency.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>"},{"heading":"Using the tools","content":"<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>How many tools are there per module?<\/strong>\r\nThe number of tools varies between modules depending on the complexity of the indicator. In general, each module has a minimum of four tools and our team will continue to research and develop new tools that will be added to the Wellness Centre over time.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>How do I know which tool to start with?<\/strong>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We recommend following the \u201cstep of the process\u201d icons to navigate your way through the tools in each module. If you are short on time you could also begin with the tools which are the quickest to complete. Use the icon guide to help you decide.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Who created the tools and what are they based on?<\/strong>\r\nAll of the tools were researched, created and developed by our product specialists in collaboration with our practitioner psychologists. They are based on the principles of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), positive psychology and life coaching.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Why do some of the tools seem similar?<\/strong>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When developing the tools our team created different tools to account for different preferences. Therefore, similar tools provide for a range of methodologies. For example, in the Practising Gratitude module, \u2018The Gratitude Jar\u2019 is a creative way of practising daily gratitudes, compared to the traditional approach delivered through writing a \u2018Gratitude Journal\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>How can I use the downloadable resources for each tool?<\/strong>\r\nThe <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">materials section for each tool contains printable PDF worksheets for you to complete in your own time. Once you have decided which tool(s) you want to try out, simply download the PDFs and either fill them out in your Browser or print them. There is no limit on how many times you can download any of the worksheets so you could complete the same worksheet each week and then set aside some time to review your answers and reflect on your progress.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>Do I have to complete a tool in one go, or can I come back to it at a later time?<\/strong>\r\nWe recommend that you give yourself enough time to read and understand the instructions for a tool and then complete it in the same sitting to ensure that you are fully focused on what you\u2019re doing, so you get the best results. However, we realise that this is not always possible which is why we have created the PDF worksheets. You can complete them at your convenience.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">If you do not manage to complete a tool in one go, we would suggest that you do so within a reasonable amount of time i.e. don\u2019t start and then leave it a week before coming back to it.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>What should I do if I don't understand a tool or get stuck?<\/strong>\r\nIf, after reading the instructions, you don\u2019t understand a tool, or if you get stuck in the middle of completing a tool, please get in touch via email (<a href=\"mailto:support@mymynd.co.uk\">support@mymynd.co.uk<\/a>) and we will be happy to help.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>What happens when I have completed all the tools for a module?<\/strong>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have completed all of the tools for a module, have a look back at your MyMynd assessment report and see if there are any other indicators you could work on. If you don\u2019t have any indicators in the \u2018some concern\u2019 or \u2018high concern\u2019 ranges, then you could look at the modules for indicators which are \u2018satisfactory\u2019 or \u2018optimal\u2019 to ensure that you maintain a good level of functioning in these areas. Finally, feel free to retake the assessment once you have tried some of the tools and at least 4 weeks have passed since you last completed the assessment.<\/span><\/p>"},{"heading":"Tool icons","content":"<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>What are the icons for?<\/strong>\r\nThe icons are there to help guide you through the different tools in each of the learning modules.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>What does the \"step of the process\" icon mean?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<img class=\"wp-image-4767 alignnone \" src=\"http:\/\/wellness.mymynd.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/icon-purpose.svg\" alt=\"\" width=\"25\" height=\"25\" \/>\r\n\r\nImproving your functioning for any of the indicators in the MyMynd assessment is a process and the tools in each of the modules are organised into different steps which enable you to complete that process. The \u201cstep of the process\u201d icon identifies which tools belong to which step. For example in the Hope module there are three steps towards becoming more hopeful:\r\n\r\nStep 1 \u2013 goals\r\nStep 2 \u2013 pathways\r\nStep 3 \u2013 agency\r\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><strong>What does the \"time required\" icon mean?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\r\n\r\n<img class=\"wp-image-4769 alignnone size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/wellness.mymynd.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/icon-time.svg\" alt=\"\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\" \/>\r\n\r\nIt refers to the minimum amount of time recommended to complete each tool in order for it to be beneficial.
