Hi Sarah Jane
I'm pretty sure that CBT is available on the NHS, although I don't know any details. I think the waiting lists can be lenghty though depending what area you are in, but then I guess the good things come to those who wait.
Good luck

Yes you can get it on the NHS - that is how I got mine.
However - I hear the waiting lists are ridiculous - anything up to 18 months wait.
You may be lucky and get in earlier. Go and ask the GP for a referral and see how long he thinks it will take.

.. and don't take no for an answer.
Every communitz in the UK has a local mental health team which can provide CBT but as stated above - it can be a verz lengthz wait so if you can afford a session or two to get you started off it would be a great help.
