The Specialist Adult Service provides treatment within three specialist units:
Naomi is a specialist service for adults using a treatment approach informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in a therapeutic environment which promotes recovery from a range of problems. These include eating disorders, mood disorders and anxiety disorders including obsessive compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
The Acorn Programme is a Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) informed Therapeutic Community. The programme uses intensive psychological therapies for women who engage in self-defeating behaviours including self-harm and disordered eating to cope with emotions and with relationships. Many have experienced trauma or abuse.
Hannah Mills unit provides assessment and rehabilitation for people with complex mental health problems, including psychosis and bipolar affective disorder. It also offers treatment for alcohol addiction or abuse, for people identified as having a dual diagnosis, We help people whose ability to maintain independence in the community is compromised by distress resulting from their life experience.
