I’d like to access talking therapies

Talk to a trained professional in a safe space about your thoughts, feelings and behaviour. They will listen, help you find your own answers, and won't judge you.

CBT – Cognitive Behavioural Therapy 

CBT is used to treat a range of mental health problems, such as anxiety, depression or the general pressures of life and work. It enables you to focus on your thoughts and behaviours, and helps you move away from negative cycles.

This particular service is provided by HCA Healthcare UK and offers face-to-face or virtual sessions. It is a direct self-referral therapy service, so you don't need to see a GP first or have pre-authorisation from AXA Health.

  • Book a consultation by contacting HCA Healthcare UK: 0345 437 0691 (option 5)    emotionalwellbeing@hcaprimarycare.co.uk
  • Note, the above is available to permanent employees and those on fixed term contracts.

Stronger Minds – AXA Health

Access confidential specialist support for stress, anxiety and depression without the need for GP referral using AXA Health's Stronger Minds service.

Available for staff and family who are on the BNP Paribas UK private medical scheme, just call 0800 068 6255.

In some instances mental health problems can be long-term and considered chronic which often excludes support through insurance plans. Our medical scheme is unique as it covers chronic mental health claims, with no overall limit for out-patient treatment.
