I need support for a mental health problem. What’s the next step?
Step 1: Making initial contact
The first step in your recovery journey is to contact Priory Wellbeing Centre Riyadh by submitting an online enquiry form. Our dedicated administration team will be able to provide comprehensive information on accessing mental health treatment as well as payment options.

Our administration team will contact you to set up an initial telephone call at a time suitable for you. During the initial call, you will be able to speak to a member of our specialist clinical team who will explore your symptoms and requirements with you in more detail.
Step 3: Arrange initial assessment
Following your initial call, we can recommend which type of initial assessment is the most appropriate for your needs; this will be an assessment with either a psychiatrist or a counsellor.

What can I expect when I arrive at the wellbeing centre?
The Priory Wellbeing Centre entrance is very private and discreet and there are a number of convenient parking options available for our patients, including valet parking. Upon entering the centre, you will be welcomed by the reception team, who will provide you with refreshments, register you, and introduce you to the clinician who will be undertaking your initial assessment. Our staff are committed to ensuring that each and every one of our patients feels comfortable and at ease.
The initial assessment options are outlined below:
- Psychiatrist assessment – the purpose of this is to diagnose your specific mental health condition, and develop a specialised treatment plan according to your individual symptoms and requirements.
- Counsellor assessment – the purpose of this is to determine the best course of therapy for your individual requirements, based on an existing diagnosis or mental health problem. Again, your treatment plan will be bespoke in nature, and personalised to meet your specific needs.
Your initial assessment will last for approximately one hour. You are welcome to bring a family member, friend or colleague along with you to your assessment if you wish.
