The IoW is championing the use of E-Mental Health tools that people can access and use at their own convenience whether in the comfort of their own home, or when they are out and about.

On line psychological support is available for people experiencing symptoms of mild anxiety, stress and worry. Access to the support is open to all and it can be via self-referral or through their GP; all relevant ‘Apps’ are free to download and use.
The providers use various approaches so the individual can chose which one is the best for them.

Outcome

Early Intervention, providing more people on the IoW with greater choice and support with mild anxiety and / or depression.
Reducing demand for primary and secondary services and escalation of symptoms by self-management
