Talking Treatments: Take the first step

Age UK is working with NHS England on a campaign to improve older people’s access to “talking treatments” (also known as talking therapies). Older people do not tend to use these treatments, probably due in part to a perceived stigma attached to seeing a ‘therapist’ or receiving ‘counselling’.  The ‘Talking Treatments: Take the first step’ campaign aims to fight misconceptions and stigmas and help more older people get the help they need.
