PTSD treatment,
opening soon

rePTSD is not an emergency service. If you are in danger or need help now, call 999 (112 in Ireland). For urgent advice in England, Scotland or Wales, call 111. In Northern Ireland or Ireland, contact your GP or the GP out-of-hours service. To talk to someone at any time, call Samaritans free on 116 123.

Not yet. No therapist is approved for PTSD, so nothing can be requested or booked. For help with PTSD now, speak to your GP, who can tell you about NHS, HSC or HSE services where you live. In England you can also refer yourself to NHS Talking Therapies. A private therapist who works with PTSD is another option.

Once therapists who work with PTSD have joined and Rephobia Limited has approved them for it. No date is set.

Not at the moment. This site asks for no details about you, so there is no list to join.

Adults aged 18 or over in the UK and Ireland who live with PTSD and want to work on it with a therapist online.

A therapist who works with PTSD and takes appointments online. Rephobia Limited will review each therapist’s professional details and approve them for PTSD before any request reaches them. Before you book, you will see their name, profession and a short introduction, and you will choose the time.

This site does not ask you about it. What the request will ask you to share is still being decided, and a qualified clinician will review it before rePTSD opens. Your therapist will explain what treatment involves before you agree to anything, and you will agree each step together.

That is still to be decided, and a qualified clinician will review it before rePTSD opens. For context, NICE writes guidance for England and Wales. Its guideline NG116 recommends psychological treatments for adults with PTSD, including trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR). That describes recognised approaches in general. It says nothing about rePTSD, which has not treated anyone.

Costs are still to be decided. There is nothing to pay today.

This site asks for no details about you. Its web server keeps standard logs of visits, as most websites do. Our privacy notice explains what those logs hold and who is responsible for them.
