Psychotherapy via referral

The Swedish healthcare system might seem complex or new to you, but don’t worry. We have compiled all the key information about how you seek psychotherapy via referral right here! 

Region Skåne offers a service called Vårdval Psykoterapi that allows those who are registered in Skåne to seek psychotherapy within the healthcare guarantee. The healthcare guarantee includes problems like depression, anxiety and relational issues. Therapy forms included are Psychodynamic therapy (PDT), Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). You can get a referral from your health center, which you then send to a clinic in paper format. When we get your referral we contact you to let you know that we have received your referral. We also inform you of the waiting time for the treatment you are interested in. For more information about our waiting times, please see our FAQ section. The waiting time for psychotherapy via referral is often longer than for private psychotherapy. One of our therapists will contact you when the waiting time is due to book a first appointment.
