Implication

Observational study examines effects of early intervention service on therapy offering, suggesting disparities in access based on ethnicity and clinical characteristics.

Key Points

Accessing early intervention services significantly increases the likelihood of receiving psychological therapy.
Only 34.6% of first-episode psychosis patients were offered psychological therapy, with CBT being the most common type.
Patients from Black Caribbean and Black African backgrounds were less likely to be offered CBT compared to White British patients.
Those with moderate onset of psychosis had a reduced likelihood of receiving cognitive behavioral therapy compared to those with acute onset.
