A compassionate, medical approach to addiction treatment

Addiction Services

Treating Addiction

Mind and Memory Service provides specialist, evidence-based care for people experiencing substance dependence and addiction. Our approach recognises addiction as a health condition that deserves respectful, non-judgmental, and clinically sound treatment. We support individuals at all stages of their recovery journey, with care tailored to their needs, goals, and circumstances.

Specialist Addiction Care

Our clinicians have experience treating a broad range of substance use disorders, including opioid, alcohol and prescription medication dependence. Treatment is informed by current research and delivered within a structured medical framework, with a strong focus on safety, dignity and long-term wellbeing.

Anxiety disorders are a group of mental health conditions characterised by excessive fear, worry, or nervousness that can interfere with daily life.

Discreet & Respectful Care

We understand how important privacy is. Appointments are conducted in a professional, welcoming clinical environment, with careful attention to confidentiality and patient comfort. Our services are designed to minimise stigma and support people to engage in treatment with confidence.

Timely Access to Care

When someone is ready to seek help, timely support matters. We aim to reduce unnecessary delays and work efficiently to help patients commence appropriate treatment as soon as possible, subject to clinical suitability and availability.

Clear Information & Informed Choices

There is no single pathway to recovery. We take the time to explain available treatment options, including medication-assisted treatment and broader therapeutic supports, so patients can make informed decisions about their care.

Individualised Treatment Plans

No two people experience addiction in the same way. Treatment plans are tailored to the individual, taking medical history, mental health, social circumstances and personal goals into account. Care is reviewed regularly and adjusted as needed to support progress over time.
