Outpatient Program

Our aim, your recovery.

“I know I have a problem but there’s no way I have time to go to rehab.”

The Outpatient Program is an 12-day program specifically designed for people with substance abuse issues who are unable to take time out from their family or work commitments.

Our program is a quality, responsive and personalised day program which will help you identify personal recovery goals and assist in making the changes necessary to reach them.

We don’t believe that one size fits all and we don’t repackage the 12 steps. We have our own evidence-based programs. Come in for an assessment and we will tailor a program for you. Our in-person program operates in Armadale and we offer an online option to participate for those unable to be on site.

Real Stories

JAMES

Former Client

The program gave me the foundation and the tools to succeed in my recovery. The sessions were run with articulation, and knowledge, conveyed with great story telling with wit, humour and highly engaging. The facilitators worked seamlessly together to deliver the program and were very engaging, thoughtful and inspiring. I 100% recommend the Outpatient Program as a great beginning to someone’s recovery journey.

CP

Former Client

I found meeting with people who share similar situations dealing with alcohol and substance abuse, positive and I would definitely recommend the Outpatient Program to others.

JAMES

Former Client

It was great to learn and grown with fellow participants. For the mediators to have lived recovery experience and to listen to the stories from guests in recovery was a highlight. A great mix of learning the science, hearing lived experiences and planning for life after the program.
