DOT FACE

Therapy

At the heart of our service is person centred care, recovery and healing from past traumatic events which can often manifest as social isolation, fear driven aggression and non-engagement. We work very closely with external psychiatric teams from the boroughs and provide keen insights and observations which enable a MDT approach in facilitating the best outcomes in terms of medication choices to best manage our clients mental health challenges. This approach is centered around  our Therapy Team.

Our ethos and approach create our in-house therapeutic services which compliments the psychopharmacological input creating an opening for clients to benefit from talking therapy, occupational therapy, art therapy and sports therapy.

We are able to support clients with enduring and chronic mental challenges and for us this translates as recognising and acknowledging each clients individual needs.

We engage with each client by meeting them where they are & moving forward from that point at their pace, finding out their like’s, dislikes, their desires and goals. Our care approach remains flexible as we understand that client needs evolve and change through their time with us.

Rehabilitation and Recovery

Our approach to rehabilitation is person centred and holistic.

We believe in giving our clients time to unwind from the stresses and often past traumas that they’ve experienced before coming to us. We often see clients exhibiting negative learned behaviours that impact on their basic functioning. We have to help the client to unlearn these behaviours and this can take time, a consistent approach to working and treating our clients with respect and understanding.

Our ethos is therapy based and this is how we achieve positive results with people.
