There鈥檚 another chance to take part in an NHS England campaign where you can share your views on how counselling and psychotherapy can have a greater impact on people鈥檚 lives.
The third online conversation for the Psychological Professions into Action campaign is now live.
The campaign鈥檚 aim is to bring all psychological professions together to explore how psychological therapies can be expanded across the healthcare system in England.
Ideas shared by people during the first two online discussions have been refined and split into five themes.
Now it鈥檚 your chance to comment further on these 鈥� and to say what you think or good ideas, or are wrong, or what topics are missing.
The ideas put forward for the campaign will be combined with the responses to NHS England鈥檚 recent consultation on the Psychological Professions Vision for England 2019-24 to produce NHS England鈥檚 next draft psychological professions workforce plan covering the next 5 years.
It will stay open until 12 June.
Matt Smith-Lilley, our Policy and Engagement Lead for Mental Health, said:
