Our Team

Our treatment teams are made up of highly experienced practitioners from a broad range of professional backgrounds. All practitioners are fully qualified or certified and are generally considered to be leading professionals in their respective fields.This is one of the many reasons why we are a premier therapeutic service.

 Our staffing strategy is simple: 

• we recruit only the best and most highly experienced practitioners in their respective fields; and
• we invest in the coordination, support and training necessary for different practitioners to work together as an integrated and coordinated team.

Importantly, our therapeutic teams are integrated and guided by highly experienced clinical consultants who are leaders in treating complex problems. True integration of treatment teams can only be achieved by:

• regular liaison between practitioners and frequent team meetings;
• guidance by highly experienced clinical staff;
• following an integrative care plan conceived by multi-disciplinary practitioners;
• a high degree of information sharing with coordinated case notes and regular briefings;
• maintaining consistent and coordinated communication across all parts of each client's program - from practitioners through to support and administration staff;
• clear, consistent policies and procedures across clinical practice and client support.

Despite claims to be multi-disciplinary, many treatment centres lack coordinated approaches where different practitioners liaise regularly in joint case consultation. At the Sanctuary Byron Bay, not only do we take care to recruit the best practitioners, we take our time to ensure they work together towards common treatment goals.
