  • The BSL Talking Therapies provider will operate a stepped-care model, which works according to the principle that people should be offered the least intrusive intervention appropriate for their needs first. Individuals who do not fully recover at this level should be stepped up to a course of high-intensity treatment. NICE guidance recommends that people with more severe depression and those with social anxiety disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) should receive high-intensity interventions first, without needing to access step 2 prior to receiving step 3 interventions. Interventions should be provided in line with the relevant NICE guidance including adherence to session numbers and "dosage" of therapy. Where risk escalates during the course of treatment, the service should liaise with the local SEL services to ensure this is managed appropriately and onward referrals are made as needed.Value not stated
