Improving access to psychological therapies (IAPT) programme: Computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (cCBT) implementation guidance
The aim of the implementation guidance is to help the NHS make decisions on how they will implement NICE computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (cCBT) technology appraisal (TA097).
TA097 was published in February 2006 and recommended the use of specific cCBT products for the management of mild and moderate depression as well as panic and phobia. PCTs are expected to be able to offer these products by 31 March 2007 and they are are:
“Beating the Blues” for people with mild and moderate depression
“FearFighter” for people with panic and phobia
The Guidance has been published by the Department of Health’s Improving Access to Psychological Therapies programme. It gives advice and timely support on how primary care trusts (PCTs) may provide cCBT to their local communities.
