Welcome to Trent PTS

Working in partnership with the



Self Referral

We provide IAPT services for the whole of Derbyshire.


We provide an easy self-referral process. The referral portal is actively monitored and open between 9.00am and 7.00pm Monday to Friday. As part of completing your self-referral, if your GP is not on the list, please contact us on 01332 265 659.


We are one of four providers across Derbyshire, below are the details of the other services available to you:


Talking Mental Health https://www.derbyshirehealthcareft.nhs.uk/services/talking-mental-health-derbyshire/contact-us-refer-yourself

Everyturn https://www.everyturn.org/talking-therapies/locations/derby-and-derbyshire/

Vita Minds  https://www.vitahealthgroup.co.uk/nhs-services/nhs-mental-health/derby-and-derbyshire/


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

administration team for support between Monday and Friday 9am to 5pm.

Right Therapy, Right Time, First Time.

 

Your referral form 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).


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 last 50-60 minutes and will be delivered either face-to-face, 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 Derbyshire in order to access our services and you must be aged 16+ years.


If you are not registered with a GP in Derbyshire (or we don't cover the GP you have), you can find an IAPT service local to you by clicking on the button below.
