Guide for patients to complete and submit their clinical questionnaires.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Introduction<\/h2>\n

One aspect of your care with Buckinghamshire Talking Therapies is the strong emphasis for us to assess and monitor your progress on your journey with us.<\/p>\n

We therefore routinely use patient health questionnaires (mood questionnaires) to help us assess the level of difficulties you are experiencing and to help us agree the best treatment option with you.<\/p>\n

You will be asked to complete these questionnaires before every appointment. To make the process as easy as possible you can complete these questionnaires securely online through our patient portal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
