North London NHS Foundation Trust has signed a new partnership with leading digital health company Psyomics to revolutionise how people across Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey, Islington access mental health care.
The collaboration will see Psyomics’ digital technology rolled out across community services, enabling access to the right support more easily for over 1.6 million residents.
Developed with clinical psychologists, psychiatrists and researchers at the University of Cambridge, the Psyomics Platform provides a digital front door for adults aged 18–65 seeking support.
The system captures patient-reported information – from symptoms to social and personal circumstances – giving clinicians holistic insights to inform the most appropriate care pathway. With 25% of submissions completed outside normal office hours, it improves accessibility and ensures support is available when people need it most, while enabling faster, more accurate decision-making from the outset.
At the same time, referrals are streamlined, meaning patients no longer have to repeat their story multiple times, improving both patient engagement and experience.
By combining clinical expertise with advanced technology, the platform standardises care and reduces administrative burden, ensuring timely, personalised support.
The initiative is a core part of the Trust’s wider transformation programme, with plans to extend the platform beyond adult services to include Talking Therapies, Neurodiversity, and Older Adults in the near future.
Jess Lievesley, Chief Operating Officer from North London NHS Foundation Trust said: “Our collaboration with Psyomics represents a significant advancement in how we support mental health across the communities of North Central London. By combining NLFT’s clinical expertise with Psyomics’ cutting-edge digital innovation, we are making it easier for individuals to access timely care and creating a more personalised care experience
Dr Melinda Rees, Chief Executive at Psyomics, added: “Our mission is to make mental health services more accessible, efficient and patient-centred. Working with North London NHS Foundation Trust means 1.6 million people will benefit from a simpler, faster route to the care they need. By combining clinical expertise with cutting-edge technology, we can help shape the future of mental health care, making it faster, more efficient, and more patient-centred.”
As demand for mental health services continues to rise, the North London partnership is set to become a national model for modernising NHS mental health pathways, offering a scalable solution that other Trusts may follow.
