ADDICTION TREATMENT PROGRAM

Addressing Addiction
Through a series of educational workshops, group work and therapies individuals learn how early childhood negative conditioning and experiences often fuel damaging beliefs/ patterns and behaviours even in adulthood.
Many of these negative beliefs fuel our thought patterns and addictions, fill us with self doubt and impede us from functioning positively in the here and now.
Distress and unresolved problems associated with lost opportunities, damaging or broken relationships, feelings of powerlessness, guilt, unresolved anger, feelings of isolation and loss of confidence further increase our anxiety and addictive patterns and make it harder to escape the trap of addiction.
You will learn about the impact of addiction on every aspect of your life and on the lives of those who care about you.

Our programme utilises multiple therapeutic approaches to enable you to break free from addiction, old negative belief systems, patterns and behaviours.
Our programme will enable you to develop healthier positive thought patterns, beliefs and behaviours which will empower you on a day to day basis, increase your confidence and self reliance.
