The Red House Psychotherapy - Greater Manchester

[ThinkingofRecovery]

Hi

My CPN has suggested that he try and refer me out of the area to this place:

As usual, he hasn't sorted a referral yet but I have an appt with my psych in a week and a half and want to know if anyone has any experience of this place because if it is any good I want to discuss it with herr.

Thanks

i've never been there but i know my therapeutic community reviewed it once. i heard it was a good place.

i really hope you get the referral/funding sorted, i'm a great believer in these types of treatment :) and i hope it works out for you. definitely recommend discussing it with your care team.

Thanks. The plan is to go for appts not actually join the community, I think because of my job (trainee solicitor - qualify in a couple of weeks). I'm not sure I like the sound of "personality disorder". It's a term my GP uses to refer to me but no-one has actually said I have one. To be honest, I am open to trying anything at the moment as I am desperate to regain a little control over my destructive behaviour.

Ive never been there but im under the same trust and some of my workers from the unit i was in trannsferred to there. Ive heard its very good.
I guess its worth a try and deffinatly worth discussing so you can get more information.
