Welcome to Newbridge
"We have established treatments for young people with eating disorders which can be very effective, especially if intervention takes place in good time. However, treatment must be delivered by experienced specialists in eating disorders working in an extensive multidisciplinary team."
Medical Director
Newbridge House is a specialist eating disorder centre for the treatment of young people aged 12 to 18 with anorexia and bulimia.
Our comprehensive inpatient programme has been developed to meet the distinctive psychological, medical, educational and social needs of young people with eating disorders.
The Medical Director of Newbridge House is Professor Hubert Lacey, who runs the Eating Disorders Service at St George's Hospital, London, the largest unit of its kind in the UK. Professor Lacey has a reputation for developing effective treatments for anorexia and bulimia which have been recognised internationally.
Newbridge House is a newly refurbished, welcoming domestic setting for the treatment of eating disorders.
We have a family-centred approach, recognising that effective treatment for a young person with an eating disorder must be fully inclusive and supportive of their family. We have an extensive core therapy programme and in addition to this, a full-time counsellor at Newbridge House to meet our young people’s needs as they arise.
We also provide a separate programme of individually-tailored outpatient therapy. This involves coming to Newbridge House for an initial assessment, followed by therapy sessions of one hour’s duration every week, to meet your personal needs.
This approach is ideal for adults and young people who do not need to stay in Newbridge House for inpatient care, but have eating disorders which require specialist treatment. The outpatient programme is run by our experienced psychiatrists and psychologists in therapy rooms within Newbridge House. The outpatient programme is designed for adults with anorexia, bulimia and binge eating disorder.
Our facility is a residential setting in a suburban location, enabling people to access specialist help without the stigma of treatment in a traditional mental health service.
