The clinic was built especially for its purpose and care has been taken in the layout, furnishing and creation of specialised therapeutic spaces in order to create the most conducive environment possible.  We treat a broad spectrum of mental health issues, developmental disorders and crisis situations, assist in diagnosis, and advise on treatment plan going forward. Patients typically stay for a two-week period but this could be shorter or longer, depending on need and medical aid benefits.
