SilverCloud - online mental health programme

SilverCloud is an online cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) resource offering a range of programmes on mental health, wellbeing, and long-term conditions. Students have the option of requesting a supporter from the Student Wellbeing and Inclusivity Service (SWIS) who can guide and encourage them through the programmes. If you would like someone from SWIS to act as a supporter, or if you have any queries regarding SilverCloud, please contact wellbeing@essex.ac.uk.

Confidentiality

SilverCloud is a confidential space and no-one from inside or outside the University will have access to the work you're doing in the programme.

However, as you work through the questions, if any of your answers indicate you're at risk because of thoughts of harm to yourself or others, this will be flagged to SWIS via a confidential email. In these circumstances, someone from SWIS will contact you by email to offer further support.
