About Palladium Private
Palladium Private's holistic, BioPsychoSocial program approach considers biological, psychological, and social factors, and their complex interactions in understanding and treating mental health disorders and addictive behaviours. Established in 2003, their Sunshine Coast hinterland retreat allows guests to immerse themselves in their recovery, away from localised or environmental stressors and triggers.
Tailored And Evidence-Based
Palladium Private combines evidence-based psychological care with holistic therapies. A multi-disciplinary team of Allied Health professionals, psychologists, psychotherapists and other specialised therapists deliver treatment. Residential treatment varies between 2 to 12 weeks, with stay times determined based on the client’s presentation in the admissions phase. The therapy team uses a combination of evidence-based therapies and techniques, including rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), NLP, Gestalt Therapy, Neuropsychotherapy, Schema Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and more.
Structured, Client-Focused Care
Guests at Palladium Private have 24-hour support from crisis care-trained counsellors, nursing staff, hosts and support workers. One-on-one psychotherapy sessions are held weekly, interspersed with group therapy sessions, workshops, and holistic therapies such as yoga, personal training, art therapy, garden therapy, and guided mindfulness sessions. Guests can also enjoy offsite excursions, nature walks, steam and plunge therapy, massage, improvisation, dance and drumming. Palladium Private welcomes certified support animals at no additional cost.
A Continuum of Care
Each guest will spend one-on-one time with a Duty Manager before leaving treatment to tailor a personalised Aftercare Plan that supports their return home over the following 6 months. The key focus of the Aftercare Plan is to engage with local support upon returning home, so all appointments are made and relationships established.
The Aftercare Plan will be unique to each guest’s specific needs and circumstances. It includes ongoing psychotherapy sessions with their Palladium Private therapist, a pack of customised resources, regular check-ins with their support team, coaching, goals setting, employment support, engagement with local community supports and healthcare professionals, and tailored wellness and mental health-related support to help in the transition home and post-treatment goals.
