Summary

Introduction

A principal aim of psychological therapies is to help people develop new skills for dealing with emotional problems, that can be applied to their current difficulties, and to potential problems or setbacks in the future. The sustained benefits arising from this learning are one of the reasons why psychological therapies tend to have a slightly stronger recommendation compared with medication in current guidance from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (e.g. NICE, 2009, 2013). The way these treatments have been delivered is through face-to-face or telephone sessions. It will consider the literature relevant to the most common therapist beliefs about this treatment format, and suggest directions for further research on the implementation of such programmes in Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services and other routine practice settings
