The Lighthouse - Brighton

The Lighthouse is a specialist service for people over the age of 18, living in Brighton and Hove who are experiencing Personality Disorder and Emotional Intensity.

The service is provided by Southdown, in partnership with the Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust and Mind in Brighton and Hove.

The aim is to offer individuals long-term support during recovery, an opportunity to develop healthy attachments and relationship skills, to learn effective strategies to manage emotional intensity and to practise community participation and peer support.

The Lighthouse provides a range of therapeutic interventions, from psychologically informed clinical interventions, therapeutic groups and occupational therapy, to general support and activity groups both at the centre and community-based.

We do not accept self-referrals or referrals from GPs. Please speak to your mental health worker for further information about the personality disorder pathway within Brighton and Hove.
