About PROMIS Hay Farm
For over 35 years, PROMIS has helped clients recover from the challenges of mental health, substance addiction, behavioural health, and eating disorders. Qualified clinicians and therapists deliver a range of services including residential primary treatment, detox, individual therapy, family therapy, and aftercare. Their small staff-to-client ratio and flexible lengths of stay—a minimum of 1 week—ensure clients get the attention and bespoke care they need.
PROMIS’ compassionate professionals are trusted allies clients can count on. Their integrated team includes doctors, nurses, psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, and support staff, blending diverse expertise to provide comprehensive care. Treatments are highly personalized, combining evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), and eye movement therapy (EMDR) with holistic therapies such as equine therapy, somatic experiencing, and life coaching. Clients benefit from daily one-to-one therapy sessions, ensuring continuous progress and tailored support, with expert clinicians also offering medication management.
PROMIS provides comprehensive care for clients seeking to reclaim their lives from eating disorders, such as binge eating, anorexia nervosa, and bulimia nervosa. They combine psychological interventions, nutritional guidance from on-site nutritionists, and medical monitoring to create a personalized treatment plan. Their approach includes cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which helps clients identify and restructure distorted thoughts, face anxiety-provoking situations, and develop critical coping skills.
People in recovery are at their most vulnerable during their first year after treatment, which is why PROMIS has a 12-month aftercare programme. Included as part of this ‘continuous recovery’ programme, clients can attend therapy for 24 days over a 12-month period.
PROMIS Hay Farm is a stress-free setting where a homely feel meets modern treatment methods for a more introspective healing journey. Their wheelchair-accessible, 14-bed home provides each client a private room with plenty of personal space, including a flat-screen TV. Gourmet chefs serve fresh and nourishing food, and can accommodate dietary preferences. Clients enjoy a gym and spa facilities, a business centre, a recreation room, and a dedicated art therapy and music room. Outside, clients can take advantage of PROMIS’ large gardens and the neighboring nature reserves and woodlands. PROMIS also offers immediate admission to take away the burden of waiting for recovery, and pick-up services all over the United Kingdom.
