Talking Mental Health Derbyshire is now closed to referrals
NHS Derby and Derbyshire Integrated Care Board has selected Vita Health Group as the preferred bidder to provide NHS Talking Therapies services in Derby and Derbyshire, from 1 July 2025.
All NHS Talking Therapies services in Derby and Derbyshire will continue to be free at the point of use to all NHS patients.
Talking Mental Health Derbyshire (a partnership made up of Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, Derwent Rural Counselling Services, Relate Derby and South Derbyshire, Relate Chesterfield and North Derbyshire and IESO) will no longer provide Talking Therapies Services after the 30th June 2025.
We have made the difficult decision to close to referrals as of the 4th April 2025 because our wait times mean we could no longer treat those referring before the we close the service.
The Talking Therapies service will continue after the 30th June 2025 with one of the existing providers, Vita Health Group. If you wish to refer yourself into Talking Therapies please visit the Joined Up Care Derbyshire website for alternative providers who are accepting referrals.
We apologise that we cannot continue with the service going forwards and wish you all the best in your recovery journey.
