A therapeutic group programme is compulsory in all psychiatric hospitals in South Africa.  The programmes at The Newhaven Durbanville is carefully compiled in order that every group benefits the patient with great value and has a therapeutic effect.

A consultant from our therapy services team will assess you and determine which therapy programme you should undertake during your treatment at the hospital.

Your therapy programme during your stay at the hospital forms the fundamental base of your overall treatment. You will be assessed as soon as practically suitable and appropriate after your admission. An initial programme will be discussed and agreed with you. It may change during the course of your treatment, depending on your progress and needs.

Continuous participation with this form of treatment is highly recommended.
