Secondary Care at The Elphis

At The Elphis, we are able to support you by:

• Reinforcing and building on the techniques learnt during your intensive care treatment
• Offering additional therapy to support specific areas of concern, relating to your reintegration back into your everyday life e.g. relationships, traumas and cross addictions
• Providing a structured transition back into family living, supporting both you and your family to ensure true healing for everyone
• Working during your stay is promoted and can be accommodated in care planning. We can also support clients who need support with back to work planning
• Re-establishing a support network with a culture of care and understanding
• Building relapse prevention into your daily life, to prepare you for whatever occurs
• Focusing on rebuilding your daily life skills in a safe and comfortable environment
• Developing a realistic ‘life-plan’ to help set a future direction for your return back to your day-to-day life
• Assisting with recovery from anxiety, depression, boundary issues and codependency

The therapy programme at The Elphis continues with elements which may now be familiar to you from your initial treatment, such as relapse prevention and mindfulness. The continued emphasis around these positive wellbeing habits helps you to navigate your daily life with peace and clarity.

New areas of focus will also be introduced, to help you process and make peace with your experiences and to achieve greater understanding of your own mind and motivations. These include complex interrelationships, traumatic experiences throughout different stages of your life, along with a range of tailored group sessions to focus on areas such as anger management and cross-addictions.

The therapy programme is tailored to your individual needs. Find out more about the therapy programme.

The Elphis offers a blend of ongoing therapy, alongside a structured life-skills programme. This encourages a gradual introduction to life in recovery, managing the temptation to return to addictive behaviours.

With the support of our expert therapy team and fellow clients, The Elphis gives you the perfect opportunity to move even closer to your personal goals and dreams for the future.

Once you have progressed from The Elphis, you will receive free aftercare for a year, which commences on discharge. This includes access to therapy support groups once a week, to help you enjoy a seamless transition of continued support through your first full year of recovery.

If you previously participated in a 28-day programme at a Priory hospital, you are welcome to continue with the hospital’s aftercare programme, should that be more convenient for you.
