Types of Addictions We Treat
Our private Psychiatric Hospital provides care for a wide range of addictions, including instances where mental health conditions and addiction occur together (Dual Diagnosis). Some people live with more than one addiction at the same time. Referred to as Polysubstance Use, this can include combinations such as:
- Cocaine and Alcohol Addiction
- Cannabis (Weed) and Alcohol Addiction
- Alcohol and Prescription Medication Addiction
Our experienced team provides personalised care tailored to your needs. Addictions are often described using different terms or slang, which is why you may see the same condition described in multiple ways. This helps ensure you can find the right type of addiction support for your situation.
