An exciting new partnership

A NEW innovative partnership begins to deliver culturally and Faith sensitive Low Intensity Service based in GP’s.

This year sees the launch of a brand new partnership between My Time, icap (Immigration Counselling and Psychotherapy) and Patti Gift alongside the Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health Foundation Trust. The partnership has come together to provide a new culturally sensitive low intensity counselling service available through GP’s across Birmingham.

My Time will be providing four new advisors who can speak a range of community languages and who represent the many diverse communities of Birmingham. This service is part of the new IAPT Stepped Care Model as devised by the NHS to provide more preventative counselling and CBT.

This is a brand new innovative partnership between Third Sector organisations and the Foundation Trust to provide culturally appropriate and community based services for the diverse population of Birmingham to access.

icap provide counselling and psychotherapy mainly for the Irish community, while Patti Gift provide African based psychotherapy and mental health services. The new service will only be available through GP’s.
