Priory Hospital Hayes Grove is a private 46-bed acute psychiatric hospital for adults, located on the edge of London in Hayes, Kent. The hospital provides care and treatment for patients with a wide range of mental health issues both as inpatients and day patients. Hayes Grove specializes in providing care for patients with acute mental health conditions, addiction issues, and also has a specialist eating disorders unit. The hospital is situated close to excellent transport links to central London, Croydon, and Bromley areas, and parking is available locally.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a fully qualified and accredited Addictions Therapist to join our team of therapists on a permanent part-time basis. The successful candidate will support the delivery of our private inpatient addictions treatment programme and deliver assessments and individual therapy to outpatients admitted to this service.

Full BACP registration and accreditation is required for this role.
We offer an intensive, abstinence-based programme with high levels of group therapy and a strong emphasis on aftercare support. Previous experience of working with the 12-step recovery model in a similar setting is essential for this role.
