Very few tic therapists in the UK. So almost impossible for young people to get therapy for their tics. Which is where technology can help with the model: Orbit #RCPsychIC

From ORBIT(online CBT for Tics), qbtech.com for ADHD assessment , gaming for anxiety and VR for psychosis at Oxford - tech has multiple applications for reducing time to treatment and improving care. #RCPsychIC #RCPsychIC23 @MindTech_Doc

Replying to @NIHR_MindTech
@NIHR_MindTech @MindTech_Doc #RCPsychIC Too much expectations and hype in the digital health field. Evidence not always translates clinically. Risk of fragmentation of NHS care with different providers. @QbtechADHD is now more widely used.

Interesting presentation by @MindTech_Doc on the role of Mindtech in developing the evidence base for digital mental health apps. Must ensure that we also consider the potential proliferation of standalone apps & the risk of exacerbating data silos... #RCPsychIC23 #RCPsychIC

Thank you - it was a fascinating insight into your research. When 1 in 6 young people face a mental health disorder, 70% receive no help at all and there’s been a 3 fold rise in self-harm in a decade, this work is absolutely vital.
Thrilled to welcome ⁦@LilianGreenwood⁩ MP today to meet @mrcdigitalyouth⁩ researchers and our amazing Spouting Minds YPAG at Nottingham @InstituteMH ⁦@NIHR_MindTech⁩ ⁦@SelfHarmRes⁩ - discussing #digital tools to support youth #mentalhealth
