"Life Works has been a truly magical experience which will stay with me forever. I can find no fault in the place, its staff, food and program." Jo, Alcoholic


Our Staff

  • The heart of our programme is our clinical team who are all highly trained and compassionate professionals. Between them they have many years experience in treating a range of addictive disorders. We believe they are unmatched in terms of training and experience in Europe.
  • We also have a highly experienced medical team with a great deal expertise in both private sector and the NHS.
  • Our staffing ratio is amongst the highest in the industry at an average of over 3 staff to every client.
  • We have a clinical advisory panel comprising some of the worlds leading experts who assist us to develop and maintain our innovative and effective treatment programme.

 

The Programme

  • Life Works has one of the most successful completion rates of any treatment centre with an average of over 82% - the UK industry average is under 50%.
  • Life Works offers a full spectrum of treatment services ranging from one to one counselling to full residential treatment supported by excellent after care services.
  • Our programmes are intensive and effective to achieve long lasting results in a relatively short period of time.
  • We are medically astute: we do not believe in over medicating the individual but we also recognise that some clients require medication for psychiatric conditions.
  • We employ a holistic approach to treatment which includes drawing upon the best of psychotherapy, psychiatry, family therapy, art therapy, nutritional advice, massage and acupuncture. We are a very small and personalised facility with just 18 residential beds. This allows for individualised and specific treatment planning and state of the art treatment.
  • We have an intensive family programme which incorporates our clients and their significant others into a dynamic, multi-family group setting.
  • All of our clients are kept safe, as we do not allow anyone to remain in the programme if they are using drugs or alcohol or acting out behaviourally.

 

The Facilities
