Find out how deprexis® can help your patients
What does deprexis® bring to your management of depression?
Currently over 11 million people in England are suffering from symptoms of depression. Together with substance misuse, mental illness accounts for 21.3% of the total morbidity burden in England. We know that mental illness is closely associated with both inequality and long-term comorbid conditions17. IAPT services are used to tackle many of these issues. This is acknowledged within the NHS long term plan which aims to increase access to IAPT services, to 25% of those in need, covering a total of 1.9m adults18.
However, many patients continue to face significant difficulties in accessing care and often face long waiting times for access to psychotherapy.
deprexis®, as a digital therapy, provides your patients with immediate access to a comprehensive program. Based on an integrative model including several psychotherapic approaches, deprexis® offers a new treatment option for the management of depression1.
Developed and researched by psychologists and clinicians for over 10 years
deprexis® is a program developed by a multidisciplinary team of physicians, psychotherapists and software engineers. Its effectiveness has also been studied for more than 10 years in many common care situations2-14:
- In patients with mild, moderate and severe depression
- In outpatient and inpatient settings
- In combination with or without psychotherapy
- In comorbid depressions related to gambling addiction, Multiple Sclerosis and epilepsy
- Short term (efficacy from 8 weeks) and long term (1 year follow-up)
How to offer deprexis® to your patients and what follow-up to provide?
deprexis® is intented to be used as a self-application by the patient1. There is therefore no additional follow-up to be provided during the therapy.
To offer deprexis® to your patient, you can either recommend or prescribe it.

deprexis® is a 'brief' therapy. By using deprexis® at the recommended frequency (once or twice a week for 30 to 60 minutes)1, the patient has enough time to complete the whole program and learn the techniques and methods adapted to their situation. deprexis® also offers a number of downloadable and printable summary and worksheets that the patient can continue to use even after their access has ended.
The use of deprexis® is personal and confidential. Only the patient has access to their data and the healthcare professional does not have to follow up on deprexis®.
As part of the therapeutic alliance, you can ask your patient to export their usage data and their self-assessment graphs for a follow-up consultation. To do this, ask your patient to go to the menu "your space", then to click on "personal data" and finally on "Create PDF" on the deprexis® website.
