Currumbin Clinic Australia

Located in the Gold Coast region of Queensland, Australia in the suburb of Currumbin, Currumbin Clinic is a treatment facility that specializes in the care of clients struggling with alcohol and substance use disorder as well as a range of co-occurring mental health conditions like bipolar disorder, depression, OCD and PTSD. Situated on the beach and close to the renowned Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, the facility provides a continuum of care that includes inpatient care, day treatment and continued aftercare.

Currumbin takes an integrative approach that includes evidence-based therapies, group therapy, psychoeducation, general wellness and holistic therapeutic methods. Founded in 1979, Currumbin primarily offers inpatient and day therapies and medication management. Clients with alcohol and substance use disorders are introduced to the 12-step recovery model as well.  

Accommodations and Food

Situated on the southern Gold Coast on an exclusive campus, Currumbin Clinic offers upscale hospital accommodations with a premium placed on safety, discretion and comfort. Only steps from the beach, it’s a serene, natural atmosphere perfect for clients in recovery. The mental health facility is equipped for 104 clients, with both private rooms and same-gender shared rooms available. All bedrooms offer en suite bathrooms and clients are encouraged to bring their own pillow and family photographs. Clients may see visitors during the late afternoon and evening on weekdays and between 1 and 8 pm on weekends, and are allowed to walk the nearby beach twice a day. The use of smartphones and laptops is permitted, though not after 10 pm or during group sessions.

The Currumbin Clinic serves hospital food that includes a variety of meal options. Clients with dietary restrictions or personal preferences can be accommodated.

Treatment and Staff

Upon intake, clients undergo a comprehensive assessment that includes psychiatric, medical and nursing evaluations. The assessment helps the team to create the most effective treatment strategy tailored to the specific needs of the individual. If deemed necessary, clients immediately enter the detox program. Currumbin offers a medically supervised detox that includes group therapy, relapse prevention techniques and an around the clock nursing team. Once detox is completed, clients typically enter the inpatient program.

Currumbin treats clients coping with alcohol and substance use disorder as well as those with an array of co-occurring mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, psychosis, OCD and PTSD. While the duration of treatment varies depending on the specific needs of the individual, clients typically stay for the entirety of a three week intensive program. The facility offers a multi-faceted approach to care that combines a number of therapeutic methods including holistic therapies, psychoeducation, general wellness activities, an introduction to the 12-step recovery model and evidence-based models like CBT and ACT. Clients participate in group therapy with a focus on relapse prevention, as well as holistic therapies like arts and crafts, meditation, music therapy and journaling. In addition, clients are kept physically active through Tai Chi and yoga. Currumbin also facilitates cutting edge treatments like repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to stimulate specific regions of the brain in clients with depression.

The Currumbin Clinic staff is comprised of the Director of Clinical Services, Director of Psychiatry, a general practitioner, consulting psychiatrists and a nursing team. As previously mentioned, dual diagnosis support through medication management is available.

Extras

Currumbin believes in the importance of continued care. Upon discharge, clients are given the option to continue regular treatment with a psychiatrist and/or enter the day programming.
