Services
Addiction Recovery Coaching
Our neuroscience-based coaching programme helps clients understand addiction patterns through daily reporting calls and weekly sessions. Using the 'House Building Model', we address relationship dynamics and communication issues that sustain addictive behaviours. Clients maintain work and family commitments while developing sustainable recovery strategies.
Systemic Counselling
This approach examines how family systems and interpersonal relationships influence mental health. Sessions explore communication patterns and relational dynamics to resolve issues affecting individuals, couples, and whole families through evidence-based therapeutic interventions.
Couples Therapy
Specialist couples therapy using systemic frameworks to rebuild connections and improve communication. The eight-session course addresses relationship breakdowns caused by addiction, helping partners develop healthier interaction patterns and mutual understanding.
Family Therapy
Whole-family interventions address addiction's impact on household dynamics. Through weekly sessions, we help families establish supportive structures, improve communication, and create environments conducive to sustained recovery and emotional wellbeing.
Personalised Recovery Programmes
Custom-designed recovery plans adapt to individual needs across four support levels. From basic daily check-ins to comprehensive platinum-level family support, our programmes combine therapeutic frameworks with practical tools for managing addictive behaviours in real-world contexts.
