About The Bay

The Bay, located in Byron Bay, Australia, treats one client at a time in exclusive homes throughout the Bay area. They treat primary mental health conditions, addiction, and co-occurring disorders. The Bay staff specializes in treating executive burnout, grief and loss, trauma, and eating disorders. Each exclusive client receives the full care and attention of a general practitioner, psychiatrist, clinical psychologist, therapist, and a host of support staff.
The Bay treats mental health and trauma with a personalized blend of evidence-based, holistic, and experiential therapies. Their evidence-based practices include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), eye movement therapy (EMDR), equine therapy, and neurofeedback. The Bay’s holistic opportunities include art therapy, Wim Hof breathing practices, hydrotherapy, acupuncture, and Qi Gong. After the day’s treatments, or during the weekend, clients can enjoy adventure therapies like scuba diving, exploring Byron Bay, golfing, and horseback riding.
Clients have 20 hours of individual therapy each week with their therapist, personal trainer, massage therapist, psychologist, and more. The Bay also prioritizes physical health and wellness, with diagnostic services and post-op care for those who require it. Their on-site detox services include 24/7 medical oversight and holistic services for greater comfort. These include massage, acupuncture, and meditation. The Bay provides only individual therapy for greater discretion.
The Bay aims to heal what lies behind addiction and mental health disorders. They focus on trauma treatment and help clients rewrite unhelpful thoughts and beliefs through CBT. Rather than seeing addiction as a disease, The Bay views it as an impermanent coping tool. With personalized treatments, The Bay aims to provide new coping tools and help heal the root causes of addiction. They can also provide relief from insomnia and counsel clients through grief and loss. The Bay treats co-occurring conditions like depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress (PTSD). Their eating disorder treatment helps clients restore positive body image and their relationship with food and exercise.
