Mirror Image is an addiction
treatment innovation created and first implemented by Dr Douglas Talbott. During the latter phase of the residential programme,
Mirror Image residents spend up to three mornings per week in another addiction treatment facilities near the Bayberry
Clinic, where they work with newly admitted alcoholics and addicts.
The
purpose of the Mirror Image Programme is to assist our residents in overcoming the myopia that often accompanies addiction,
in that residents can see the effects of addiction in others but are unable to see those same effects in themselves. Residents
in US facilities consistently report that their experience in Mirror Image has a profound affect on their recoveries. Bayberry residents take part in the Mirror Image programme after a minimum of two months stay in the
community and an in-depth evaluation and recommendation by the clinical team.
