The multi-faceted extended care programme at Montrose Manor is intended to be a continuation of the treatment provided in primary care.

Eating disorders are chronic, relapsing problems and treatment requires addressing long-standing maladaptive patterns of behaviour. Having established a regular eating schedule and dealt with any critical associated physical consequences in primary care, we assist our clients in utilizing the plethora of treatment modalities available at Montrose Manor to explore key personal issues relating to their illness.

In our three-phase residential programme group and individual therapy is supplemented with psycho-educational lectures, specialised body image and focus groups, art and drama therapy, life skills classes, Equine Assisted Psychotherapy and physical and recreational activities such as hiking, Yoga and Pilates.

The world class Nutritional Programme at Montrose Manor incorporates the latest findings from medical dietary research. This is complimented by a unique Wellness Programme that helps each client develop a healthy relationship with exercise.

Our internationally qualified and highly skilled multi-disciplinary team of mental health professionals is experienced in the presentation of eating disorders as primary or secondary processes, and are specifically trained to manage dual diagnoses or concurrent disorders. The team includes a psychiatrist, clinical psychologist, dietician, occupational therapist, drama and art therapist, counsellor and psychiatric nurse.
