Welcome to Trent PTS Working in partnership with the Self Referral Our Locations Contact Us Self Referral Your referral matters to us, because the sooner you start therapy, the better you will feel. We know that it can be hard to take that first step to seeking help and that completing a referral can be a big decision. You can work through the referral form at your own pace, take a break if you need to, or contact our referrals team for support. Meet Limbic - your digital referral assistant! Hi there! I'm Limbic...can I help? Limbic is a conversational, digital assistant that can help to guide you through your self referral. Friendly and clever, Limbic gathers your details and quickly starts to match you to the best type of therapy for you. Once completed, a team of therapists will review your referral and find the earliest available assessment time. If Limbic detects you are at risk of self harm, we will immediately send you information about where to seek urgent or crisis help. If limbic has not popped up on your device, you can click the button below to start your referral. Start your Referal Right Therapy, Right Time, First Time. Limbic supports us to provide the right therapy for you, as quickly as possible. It helps to reduce our waiting lists before and after assessment and prevent repeated assessments, so you can get the support you need, when you need it. We can usually contact you to book your assessment on the same day (Monday-Friday). If you complete your referral at the weekend, we will aim to contact you by Monday afternoon. By submitting a referral , you consent to us contacting you directly and sharing your information on our internal systems. For more information about this, please see our privacy statement. You can withdraw your consent at any time, by contacting referrals.trentpts@nhs.net, or via telephone on any of the numbers below. So, you have completed your self referral...what happens now? Click the button below to find out what happens next in your therapy journey. What Happens Next? Therapy in person, by phone or online by secure video - it all works equally well but its your choice. Your first appointment will will last 50-60 minutes and will be delivered by phone or online video. At that appointment your therapist will discuss the best way to deliver your therapy with you. Video/Telephone Therapy Video or telephone therapy works really well if convenience and speed of access is important for you. Over the past year, we have treated 20,000 people using this method and their outcomes have been just as good as in-person therapy. In Person Therapy If you prefer the in person approach, your therapist will arrange to see you at one of our clinics. In order to keep you and others safe, there will be some simple procedures in place at our clinics, which you and your therapist will follow. These will be explained in your appointment letter, so you will know what you need to do. We have already seen lots people in person, so you can feel confident about doing this. As we are funded by the NHS, there is no cost to you for treatment. You must however be registered with a GP in Nottinghamshire or Derbyshire in order to access our services and you must be aged 16+ years. Please note that some young people aged between 16-17 in Nottingham may need to be referred to another service. We will contact you to let you know if this will be necessary. If you are not registered with a GP in Derbyshire or Nottinghamshire (or we don't cover the GP you have), you can find an IAPT service local to you by clicking on the button below.
