Mental health services in the UK

This guide covers how to get mental health support, written for people who may never have sought it before.

It explains NHS Talking Therapies and that you can refer yourself without going through a GP, how to ask for a Farsi interpreter for therapy sessions, and where to go when things are urgent. It states clearly that seeking help does not affect an asylum or residency claim, and that treatment for conditions caused by torture or violence is free to everyone regardless of immigration status.

The full guidance is written in Persian for the people using it. Switch to فارسی to read it.
