Getting help from Steps2Wellbeing just got easier

Steps2Wellbeing (S2W) have just launched a friendly, digital assistant Wysa that can help local people refer themselves for treatment if they have been feeling low, stressed or anxious.

Wysa is a chatbot that sits on every page of S2W's website and will guide people through the process – no phone calls, no forms, and no need for a GP appointment.

Through Wysa, people will be offered 24/7 access to interactive, digital mental wellbeing support and self-help resources. Meaning people don’t have to wait to start managing their thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

Steps2Wellbeing is a free, NHS mental wellbeing service provided by Dorset HealthCare that offers counselling, guided self-help and CBT to adults registered with a GP in Dorset or Southampton City.

Patients can refer themselves on the website using the online form or using Wysa.
