Summary

This study is the second study of a larger project and will begin the process of testing and the development of an integrated intervention on a series of case studies. The combined intervention provides psychological therapy and debt advice in tandem. The treatment pathway is based on interviews and focus groups with service users and staff and the themes that emerged. It will be trialled in the NHS' Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) service. Participants routinely accessing this service who have debt issues affecting their mental health will be asked if they'd like to also take up support for their money worries, which will be provided by Citizen's Advice (CA). Researchers will take exit interviews with both service users and staff at the end of the treatment to develop the protocol further. Researchers will also assess measures of mental health and wellbeing that are routinely taken by IAPT to review the intervention.
