About Priory Hospital Bristol

About

Priory Hospital Bristol, located within a secluded area of Bristol, is one of the UK's leading centres for the treatment of individuals, families and couples facing a wide range of psychiatric conditions.

We offer fast access to treatment for a number of mental health concerns, such as depression, anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), as well as alcohol addiction, drug addiction and behavioural addictions.

Mental health treatment in Bristol

Mental health problems can have a detrimental impact on your quality of life. Without expert support, these problems can eventually lead to a range of long-term, negative consequences such as relationship breakdowns, problems at work and other co-occurring mental health challenges.

If you or someone you know is struggling with a mental health condition, it's important to recognise that you’re not alone, and that treatment is available. At Bristol, our highly qualified team can deliver comprehensive treatment for all of your mental health concerns, helping you to tackle your symptoms, address the underlying causes and triggers for your problems, and support you to return to a happy and enjoyable life.

Addiction treatment in Bristol

At Priory Hospital Bristol, our addiction treatment specialists recognise that all forms of addiction can have a negative impact on your psychological and physical health. We provide evidence-based treatment for a wide range of addictions, including alcohol and drug addictions, as well as behavioural addictions such as gambling, internet and shopping addictions, all delivered as part of our dedicated inpatient counselling service.

Our 28-day residential addiction treatment programme includes:

  • Free, no obligation addiction assessment
  • 7-10 day medically assisted detoxification for drug and alcohol
  • addictions, if this is required
  • 1:1 therapy and group therapy
  • Access to 12-step support groups in Bristol
  • Free aftercare for 12 months following treatment
  • Free family support for 12 months following treatment

Ultimately, the aim of addiction treatment at Bristol is to help you to become physically stable, address the underlying causes and triggers for your addiction, improve your self-esteem and take steps towards a full and sustainable recovery.

Therapies

Our clinical experts have extensive experience in delivering a range of therapy types, which are offered on an individual basis or as part of a group therapy programme. Individual therapy can be face-to-face or can take place remotely via an online digital platform. Our therapies include:

  • Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
  • Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR)
  • Psychodynamic counselling
  • Integrative therapy
  • Compassion-focused therapy (CFT)

Our environment and location

At Priory Hospital Bristol, we believe the environment you stay in is just as important as the treatment itself when it comes to mental health and addiction recovery. Our Grade II listed building provides an excellent setting for you to focus on your health, wellbeing and recovery. The hospital provides:

  • Expansive private grounds
  • Peaceful and welcoming living areas
  • Excellent housekeeping
  • High quality catering
  • En-suite bedrooms

At Bristol, we can guarantee that our comprehensive treatment programmes are guided by current evidence-based research. You don’t have to struggle with an addiction or mental health condition; we can help you get back on track.

Poorly matched with a therapist who wasn’t able to appreciate what was most important to me and why I was seeking treatment. I lost confidence in her completely after several sessions.

I was very daunted prior to going in for the 4 week program, but it was the best thing I have ever done. The therapy was intense but amazing, there wasn’t one session that I didn’t get something out of. The staff on Holbrook ward were phenomenal so caring and supportive and helped to create such a positive and safe environment. All of the staff were brilliant but a particular thanks goto Vernice, Beth and Kim. Thank you, a really positive, life changing experience.

My partner has received outpatient treatment from the Priory for over 10 years. He and I have always been very happy with the high standard of professional care,understanding and support received. Any written report has always been detailed and thorough, with careful thought given to any recommendations. We are most grateful to all those concerned who have improved our quality of life.

#PrioryBreakTheChain | Stories of addiction recovery

Addiction can run in families, but it doesn’t have to define your future. Behind every statistic is a family living with pain, fear and uncertainty - but recovery can bring freedom, hope and change. Jordan and Helen both grew up surrounded by addiction. For Jordan, losing his dad at 13 left him turning to alcohol and drugs as a way of coping. For Helen, alcohol became part of life from an early age, until her own drinking escalated to the point she felt ashamed, isolated, and unable to cope. With support, both found the strength to break the chain. Today, Jordan is rebuilding his life and creating a healthier future, while Helen has overcome her own struggles and discovered a new way forward. Watch their stories and discover more about our BREAK THE CHAIN campaign
