Specialised Programmemes
Specialised Programmemes
Our expert team of therapists, medical professionals, and addiction specialists create personalised treatment plans tailored to each client’s unique needs. We offer a minimum 28-day programme, beginning with an orientation period to help clients settle in and start their healing journey.
Setting the foundation for personalised recovery
Setting the foundation for personalised recovery
We start by meeting you where you are. In the first week, we focus on understanding your story—your experiences, challenges, and needs. This orientation period sets the tone for a treatment plan built entirely around you. The connection with your therapist is key, as they work closely with you to create a supportive and personalised path toward recovery. Core therapeutic sessions are then tailored and adjusted to suit your progress every step of the way.
