Expert mental health treatment at Priory Hospital Ticehurst House

We are able to provide established treatment for a wide variety of mental health conditions, on both an inpatient and an outpatient basis. These include:

Anxiety treatment

Anxiety is a broad term which encompasses a range of different disorders that can manifest in a variety of ways, and have a detrimental impact on an individual’s wellbeing and their ability to function effectively on a day-to-day basis. Although it is normal to feel anxious or worried on occasions, experiencing heightened levels of these emotions for a prolonged period of time, can lead to the development of what can be a debilitating anxiety disorder.

Our anxiety specialists at Ticehurst House understand that anxiety often causes individuals to experience overwhelming feelings of worry and dread, which can make even the simplest of tasks seem impossible, and may prevent them from seeking the support that they need. However, it’s important to recognise that you don’t have to struggle on your own; anxiety is treatable, and the most crucial first step towards regaining control of your life is getting help. Our anxiety treatment experts in Sussex are dedicated to providing each and every one of our patients with high quality anxiety treatment, enabling you to reduce your anxiety symptoms, tackle the underlying triggers for your anxiety, and take steps towards a more positive way of life.

Depression treatment

Depression is a severe mental health condition, characterised by enduring and overwhelming feelings of sadness. Whilst everyone can feel sad and upset from time-to-time, there are some individuals who experience such crushing low moods that their mental, physical and emotional health are significantly impaired.

Depression can cause a range of debilitating symptoms, including persistent feelings of hopelessness, worthlessness, and despair, which can be very difficult to cope with and can sometimes act as a barrier to individuals reaching out for help. However, the good news is that depression is treatable, and therefore, the most important step if you think that you are struggling with depression, is to seek support. Our Ticehurst House depression specialists are committed to providing expert treatment for your depression, enabling you to overcome your symptoms, and take steps towards a positive future.

Stress treatment

Stress can be defined as our mind and body’s response to intense mental or emotional strain, and unfortunately, is becoming an increasingly common occurrence in the context of modern working life. Whilst we can all feel stressed from time to time, if you find that your stress becomes unbearable, difficult to cope with, or is causing you to experience emotional exhaustion and physical symptoms, it may be that you require psychological support to help you to overcome it.

Chronic and ongoing stress is unlikely to go away on its own, and can become gradually worse, impacting on all areas of your professional and personal life. At Ticehurst House, stress treatment has been designed to empower you to tackle your stress symptoms, learn new and healthier ways to respond to stress in the future, and take steps towards recovery and wellbeing.
