Welcome to the Sheffield Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression service, formerly known as IAPT.

Every year we help thousands of people in the city who are struggling with how they are feeling.

We are here to help.

What support do we offer?

On this site you will find details about the range of evidence based treatment options we offer. Treatment options include courses, one-to one sessions, and online programmes. You can also access useful self help resources to improve how you feel right away. 

If you have a long term physical health condition affecting how you feel, our health and wellbeing service can help. This support is for anyone under the care of a Sheffield consultant, even if you do not live in Sheffield.

If you are having trouble at work, support is available with our employment advisors.

We can also offer helpful advice for healthcare professionals.
