The Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme began in 2008 and has transformed treatment of adult anxiety disorders and depression in England.

In 2019 Leeds IAPT service was funded to participate in a national Employment Advisors in IAPT pilot scheme. The main focus of the pilot has been to support people using IAPT talking therapies by providing practical advice and interventions to help them retain or enter sustainable new employment.
At its foundation in 2008, one of the objectives of the IAPT initiative was to increase the availability of talking therapies to individuals absent from work through mental health difficulties whose aim was to return to employment. IAPT also recognised that offering therapeutic interventions could act as a preventative measure to employees taking time off work for symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced employment support professional to be part of a developing service which will improve the quality of life for people with common mental health problems.
