Cardiff Rehab Centre

What is the environment like?

This small, tranquil and cohesive unit enables the highly skilled staff team to address behaviours and coping mechanisms, support and manage traumas that may be associated with domestic or previous abuse. The ambiance lends itself to the women to address their treatment and recovery needs without distractions, attentions and competition that they might experience in a mixed gender environment.

How long will I stay?

The treatment approach is client centred and based on a modified Minnesota Model with abstinence as its core aim and employing the 12 Steps of the AA/NA Fellowship.

What is the ethos and approach?

Addiction is considered in terms of a primary illness with physical, mental and spiritual (relationship) symptoms. Each of these is treated in a multi-dimensional approach with the aim of responding to the whole person rather than their individual parts. People come to be treated because they are ill and not because they are bad or weak.

Therapy is based on individual and group work and this aspect of treatment employs an integrative approach where Motivational Interviewing, an Inter-Personal Model of group work and a range of counselling models are combined. Every attempt is made to provide a treatment process that balances support and challenge, as we believe that this will provide the best medium for change and one of the greatest assets in this process is the peer group.

Who will be looking after you?

A fully qualified, expert team of psychiatrists, therapists, counsellors, nurses and key workers.

Who is it suited for?

Can I visit this treatment centre?

Absolutely. We would recommend you visit the treatment centre and meet with the team who will be looking after you. It’s a good chance to get a feel for what a stay here is like and for the team to get to know you and ensure they can fulfil your needs. You’ll be given an opportunity to talk with clients who are in treatment and ask them about their own experiences.
