North East
CBT therapy across the North East
The North East is geographically compact, which makes CBT access more uniform than in larger regions — almost everyone in Tyneside, Wearside, County Durham and Teesside lives within reach of either an NHS service or a private practitioner.
Talking Therapies services include Talking Helps Newcastle, Talking Therapies Northumberland, Tyneside and Northumberland Mind for Better Mental Health, Talking Changes (County Durham and Darlington), and Impact on Teesside. All accept self-referral.
Private fees in the North East are among the lowest in England — typically £60–£85 in 2026, with Newcastle city centre at the upper end. The region also has a strong group CBT tradition; if you've been told the 1:1 wait is long, ask specifically about groups, which often start within weeks.
