The core characteristics of LICBT are:

 Use of CBT-informed self-help resources to deliver CBT techniques (Richards, 2004)

 Delivery through a variety of CBT self-help mediums, primarily within written, computerised (cCBT) or internet-based (iCBT) formats (Chapter 7) with increasing research now focusing on other delivery formats such as video-mediated, e-mail and based around apps

 CBT self-help interventions supported by an LICBT psychological practitioner workforce

 A Step 2 LICBT psychological practitioner workforce competent in supporting patients to use CBT self-help interventions

 Briefer session times required to support the patient to use LICBT techniques delivered through CBT self-help interventions

 Adoption of CBT self-help interventions for the treatment of common mental health problems directly informed by the evidence base.

Continued developments in the evidence-base still make a single definition capturing the key characteristics of LICBT elusive (Bennett-Levy et al., 2010). However, with respect to the IAPT programme, consensus concerning core characteristics of LICBT is beginning to emerge.
