Khiron Clinics - Mental Health & Trauma

Khiron Clinics’ residential programme helps individuals experiencing mental health crises and addiction by addressing the trauma often underlying these conditions. Using groundbreaking, nervous system-based therapies, theirclinicians are informed, trained, and supervised by the world’s leading trauma experts. Khiron Clinics aims to be the final destination on their clients’ road to recovery, offering hope to clients who’ve been let down by previous treatments for substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other primary mental health conditions. Khiron Clinics follows a 3-phase approach to treating trauma and mental health challenges rooted in early or unresolved trauma. First,‘Stabilisation’focuses on understanding oneself, reducing symptoms, and learning about trauma and self-regulation. Next,‘Trauma Processing’builds safety in the body and mind, helping clients recognise triggers, manage emotions, and make mindful choices. Finally,‘Integration’helps clients take their newfound regulation, self-awareness, and knowledge into daily life by applying the skills developed in treatment. Khiron Clinics uses Polyvagal Theory-informed practices to create the conditions for deep healing. Drawing from a range of techniques—such as eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR), internal family systems (IFS), and equine therapy—clients learn to connect with bodily sensations and the present moment torelease trauma stuck in the body, desensitise distressing memories, reduce self-destructive behaviours, and relearn trust and connection with others. Nestled in the countryside northwest of London, Khiron Clinics offers private and shared housing—from a private bungalow to communal manor living. Clients enjoy nutritious meals, access to 12 acres of gardens and walking trails, a home gym, swimming pool, cold water therapy (with clinical approval), and quiet comforts like a communal computer, landline phone, and a resident cat— all designed to support rest, connection, and emotional healing. To support long-term mental well-being, clients can move to Khiron’s lower-dependency residential facilities or transition to outpatient therapy through their day clinic or 1-1 sessions, either online or in-person. Follow-up support also includes 3-, 6-, and 12-month check-ins. Khiron Clinicstailors plans to suit clients’ funding needs, whether they’re using private medical insurance, seeking NHS referrals, or planning to finance treatment personally or with the support of family and friends. During a telephone consultation, they can discuss a range of options, including the duration of treatment, location, and the level of care required, in addition to the price. If detoxification is needed, trusted clinics are available to ensure clients with substance use disorders are fully prepared for the trauma therapy offered.
