Treatment Options

Both day and inpatient treatment options are available. Typically, employees access treatment on a day basis at a time and place that is convenient to them, either whilst still at or in returning to work.

Initially, an assessment of up to ninety minutes is performed either by a consultant psychiatrist or by a trained, experienced psychotherapist depending upon the nature of the presenting condition, who makes the referral and the funding mechanism. Many employees choose to self refer confidentially and fund their own treatment. Following assessment, both group and individual treatment programmes are available to meet both clinical and practical needs of the employee.

Day programmes vary in length but are very flexible and vary from one individual session for an hour per week, to five hours of intensive group and individual sessions per day for several days.

Inpatient programmes provide therapy in a calm and supportive environment that allows the individual to reflect and develop strategies for self management following discharge. Often, employees will visit one of our therapy centres as part of a graded return to work schedule in order to receive relapse prevention treatment following an in patient episode so that the risk of repeated sickness absence can be minimised.
