We are not suitable for patients with active suicidality, severe comorbid psychiatric conditions requiring acute treatment, or severe substance misuse as the primary concern.

Will we receive feedback after the intake or treatment?

Yes. After completion of the intake and at the end of the treatment episode, we send a structured feedback report to the referring GP, in accordance with NHG guidelines and privacy regulations. The patient consents to this at registration.
