We’re looking to hear from people in Wales about their awareness and experiences of digital psychological therapies.
In Wales and many countries around the world, digital solutions that support mental health and wellbeing are growing in popularity. Digital technologies have a range of benefits, including ease of access and flexibility around an individual’s needs.
Welsh Government has set out clear ambitions for seamless mental health services that are person-centred, needs-led, and ensure people receive the right support without delay (Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2025-25). For many people, this may be access to evidence-based digital psychological therapies.
What are digital psychological therapies?
Digital psychological therapy refers to programmes of psychological therapy, which are online. They take you through a number of sessions providing information and support about mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression, coping strategies and therapy. They can be self-guided which means you do it by yourself. Sometimes there may be a therapist in the background who is in contact by messages and with some programmes you can talk with a therapist who provides some feedback and support.
One of the most common digital psychological therapies offered across NHS Wales at the moment, is a platform called SilverCloud.
Why is sharing your experiences important?
To be able to continue to meet the evolving needs of our population, it is important for us to continually review our services in line with people’s experiences and other insights. By sharing your experiences, you will help us to:
- Understand what people think of digital psychological therapies and their impact
- Assess whether this is something people would like to see more of
- Develop plans around future digital psychological therapy offerings in Wales
