Private Drug & Alcohol Rehab Newham
Confidential, trauma-informed rehab for Newham residents, from detox and therapy to aftercare and family support, tailored to your needs.
Addiction Help and Treatment for Newham
Addiction can affect individuals and families across Newham, from the high streets of Stratford and East Ham to quieter areas like Forest Gate and Beckton. While the signs may be hidden, the impact on health, relationships and everyday life can be overwhelming.
Newham faces particular challenges: economic stress, housing instability and high demand on local mental health services can all contribute to substance use. For some, it’s a long-standing struggle. For others, it may have escalated recently. No matter the story, no one should have to face addiction alone.
Abbington House offers private, trauma-informed rehabilitation for people in Newham. Whether you need medically managed detox, therapy for anxiety or trauma, or a full residential programme, our team is here to support your recovery every step of the way.
From your first call to aftercare, we provide non-judgemental, personalised care in a safe and healing environment.
What We Treat at Abbington House
Abbington House offers specialist treatment for a wide range of addictions and mental health conditions. Every programme is trauma-informed, clinically led, and tailored to the needs of clients from Newham and surrounding areas.
Drug Addiction Treatment
We support people recovering from:
- Cocaine addiction
- Cannabis misuse
- Heroin and opioid dependence
- Ketamine misuse
- Prescription drug addiction, including benzodiazepines and painkillers.
In Newham, substance use often overlaps with social and financial pressures – and for many, what starts as a way of coping becomes a serious, long-term issue. Whether it’s a recent spiral or a long-term struggle, we’re here to help you regain control.
Alcohol Rehab
Alcohol dependence can creep in slowly or develop rapidly, affecting relationships, work and health. We provide:
- Medically managed alcohol detox
- Therapy for emotional triggers and underlying issues
- Relapse prevention and long-term recovery planning.
We treat every client with compassion, whether you’re managing binge drinking, daily use or withdrawal symptoms.
Dual Diagnosis Support
Many clients from Newham arrive with both substance use and mental health issues such as:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- PTSD and complex trauma
- ADHD
- Stress-related disorders.
We treat both addiction and mental health together, so healing can be deep, stable, and lasting. Therapy is personalised and includes options like CBT, DBT and trauma-informed counselling.
Wherever you are in Newham – Stratford, East Ham, Plaistow or beyond – we’ll work with you to build a treatment plan that fits your needs and supports your long-term recovery.
How Rehab Works at Abbington House
How Rehab Works at Abbington House
Step 1: Personalised Admission
We start with a confidential assessment to understand your substance use, mental health and personal goals. Whether you're in Stratford, Canning Town or East Ham, we can arrange supported transport directly to our residential centre.
Step 2: Medically Supported Detox
If you’re physically dependent on alcohol, opioids or certain prescription medications, detox is the first step. Our medical team provides 24/7 monitoring to manage withdrawal safely and comfortably.
Step 3: Therapy & Trauma-Informed Care
Once detox is complete - or if detox isn’t needed - you’ll begin your personalised therapy programme. This may include:
- One-to-one counselling
- Group therapy sessions
- CBT and DBT
- Trauma therapy for underlying causes
- Relapse prevention and coping strategies.
Step 4: Holistic Support
We combine evidence-based therapy with holistic treatments that support emotional and physical wellbeing:
- Sound therapy
- Art and creative therapies
- Mindfulness and meditation
- Light exercise and time outdoors.
Step 5: Community & Peer Support
Living with others in recovery offers daily encouragement and shared understanding. Many clients from Newham find strength in this sense of community, often for the first time in a long while.
Step 6: Preparing for Life After Rehab
Before discharge, we’ll create a tailored aftercare plan based on your life in Newham. You’ll also have access to our alumni network, providing continued support and connection after you leave.

Weekly Online Family Group Sessions
Our programme includes:
- Weekly online sessions, accessible from anywhere in Newham

- Available to families of both current and former clients.
These sessions provide a safe, compassionate space to process what’s happened, rebuild trust, and develop healthy ways to move forward together.
Localised Support for Newham Families
Newham is a diverse, resilient community, with strong family ties often playing a central role in daily life. We honour those bonds while helping families build boundaries and tools that support long-term recovery.
When loved ones heal together, the journey becomes not just possible, but sustainable.
Leaving Newham for Treatment
If you live in Newham, the idea of leaving home for rehab can feel daunting, especially if you’ve never accessed treatment before. But stepping away from familiar surroundings can be a powerful move toward real, lasting recovery.
Staying local often means staying close to the triggers that fuel addiction, whether that’s social circles, environments tied to substance use or daily stressors that make change feel impossible. In areas like Stratford, Plaistow and East Ham, it can be hard to escape the noise and pressure of everyday life.
By leaving Newham to attend residential rehab at Abbington House, you create vital space – both physically and mentally – to focus on healing. In a calm, confidential setting, you can begin to process what’s led you here, develop healthier coping strategies and make meaningful progress without distraction or judgement.
Supported Transport from Newham
We regularly welcome clients from across the borough. Our team can arrange safe, comfortable and discreet transport directly from your door to Abbington House, removing one more barrier to getting the help you need.
This isn’t about running away. It’s about stepping into the right environment, one where recovery is possible, supported and sustainable.
Aftercare and Returning to Newham
Aftercare and Returning to Newham
Your Aftercare Plan May Include:
- Regular check-ins with our team
- Ongoing therapy or counselling referrals
- Personalised relapse prevention strategies
- Continued access to our alumni network
- Family support sessions, if helpful.
Returning to familiar places, whether it’s your neighbourhood in Canning Town, a workplace in Stratford, or social circles in Forest Gate – can reintroduce old triggers. That’s why your aftercare is built around you, your environment, your strengths and your goals.
We’ll help you build daily routines, manage stress and stay connected to a recovery community that understands what you’ve been through.
Real Stories from Clients
Recovery is personal – but you are never alone. Many people come to Abbington House feeling lost, afraid, or out of options. Their experiences remind us that healing is possible, even when it feels far away.
