Where you want things to change
Free to ask, and you hear back either way

There’s more to you
than PTSD
PTSD can affect sleep, concentration, work and time with the people close to you. Over time, daily life can start to fit around it.
Asking for help can mean trusting someone you have not met yet. Finding a therapist who works with PTSD can mean a long wait, or contacting therapists one by one.
RePTSD starts with what you want to change in your life today. A therapist who works with PTSD reads your request first, and you agree each step before it happens.

You decide the next step.

Before your first step
Help now, what you share, your therapist, cost and your information.
What if I need help now?
RePTSD is not an emergency service. If you are in danger or need help now, call 999 (112 in Ireland). For urgent advice in England, Scotland or Wales, call 111. In Northern Ireland or Ireland, contact your GP or the GP out-of-hours service. In Northern Ireland you can also call Lifeline free at any time on 0808 808 8000. To talk to someone at any time, call Samaritans free on 116 123.
Will I have to talk about what happened?
Your request asks only what you want to change in your life today. You choose what to share, you do not need to describe any events, and you do not need a diagnosis. Trauma-focused treatments usually involve working with memories of what happened at some stage, at a pace you and your therapist agree. Your therapist explains this at your first appointment, before you agree to anything.
Who will I see?
A therapist who works with PTSD and takes appointments online. Rephobia Limited reviews each therapist's professional details and approves them for PTSD before any request reaches them. Before you book you see their name, profession and a short introduction, and you choose the time.
What does it cost?
Sending a request is free, and no payment is taken when you book. Any fee and the session length are shown before you confirm an appointment. The cancellation terms are on the appointment page.
What happens at the first appointment?
You talk about what you want to change and what matters to you. Assessment is part of that conversation: your therapist checks that their approach is right for you and explains what treatment involves before you agree to anything. If it suits you both, treatment can start in the same session. You decide together whether to book more.
Can I go at my own pace?
Yes. You and your therapist agree the goal, the approach and each step before it happens. Your therapist adjusts the pace with you, and you can stop at any point.
How will I hear back?
In your care workspace, either way. Replies wait there until you sign in, as we do not send email alerts yet. You see whether a therapist has replied, asked a question or offered an appointment, and you are told if no therapist can offer care. In that case you can ask a coordinator to help you look at other options.
What happens to what I write?
Your request summary goes to up to two therapists approved for PTSD, and to a coordinator if you ask for help. Your contact details are kept separate from it, no clinical notes are kept in your workspace, and no information about you is sent to a generative AI model. It is stored on Rephobia Limited’s own server in the UK. Our privacy notice has the detail.
Can I stop if it is not right for me?
Yes. You can decline any offer, withdraw your request or stop after the first appointment. Booking the first appointment does not commit you or your therapist to more.
What kind of treatment is it?
Your therapist explains their approach at your first appointment, and you agree your plan together. For context, NICE guideline NG116 (England and Wales) recommends psychological treatments for adults with PTSD, including trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and, in some circumstances, eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR). That is general guidance and makes no claim about RePTSD.
When do I create an account?
After you have written and checked your request. You add your name and email, enter the six-digit code we email you, then send your request. Your account keeps replies, appointments and your treatment plan together.
What happens after the first appointment?
You and your therapist decide whether to continue. Your therapist can propose a treatment plan, which you review and agree in your care workspace. Your plan, appointments and reflections stay together there, and any change needs your agreement again.
Tell a therapist what you want to change
Write a few sentences about what you want to change in your life today. A therapist who works with PTSD reads it and, if they can help, offers a first online appointment.
Sending a request is free, and you hear back either way.
