Psychological interventions

Substance abuse

At Orchard House we are able to provide psychological interventions for adults, children and for families. 

The clinical psychology team has a variety of expertise. We are able to offer therapeutic interventions including cognitive-behavioural therapy, emotional based counselling and other psychological interventions.

Cognitive-behavioural therapy for children is also provided. Family and couple therapy is also offered. Attachment based therapeutic work is provided for both adults and children.

Our service is provided to the NHS and to the Local Social Services. We also have close links with the post-graduate Exeter and Bristol clinical psychology training courses and we regulary have trainees working with us. The trainees are funded by the NHS and so their services can be made available without cost. The availability of these services can be discussed directly with the Clinical Director.

Support for rehabilitation can be provided for parents if they are already engaged in a rehabilitation programme. We have close links with local services and we are able to facilitate engagement of residents with the local team.
