Our approach

Our expertise enables us to support patients with a high level of risk and challenging behaviours including individuals with high risks of self-harming behaviour and people who may require a period of stabilisation achieved through high dependency care or acute care, depending on their diagnosis.

Our clinical programmes focus on:

  • Working collaboratively with the discharge teams to ensure a smooth transition to further support, back into existing community services, or to an individual’s home were possible.
  • Restore our patients’ quality of life by providing the therapeutic techniques and coping strategies that are most appropriate.
  • Building skills to increase independence to promote people stepping down to care in the least restrictive setting, appropriate to their health
  • Substance misuse and addictions treatment support

Therapeutic techniques and coping strategies may include but are not limited to:

  • Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT)
  • Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
  • Motivational interviewing
  • Anger management
  • Trauma treatment
