To begin with clinicians at Croydon Talking Therapies (IAPT) will speak with you about your current difficulties and will carefully consider if the service is right for you. Initial brief assessments usually take place over the phone and can provide interpreters if needed. If our service is not best suited to meet your needs we will put you in touch with another service that is or we will provide you with information on services so that you can make your own choice.
