Our 28-day inpatient residential program provides a safe and structured environment to begin healing. Supported by experienced medical, nursing and psychotherapy staff who specialise in addiction, you will explore the underlying causes of your patterns and learn healthier ways to manage life, relationships and your emotional world.
Before you begin, you’ll meet with our team for a pre-admission assessment. This is your chance to share your story and ensure the program feels right for you.
We also check your private health insurance and costs upfront, so you have clarity and peace of mind from the start.
