Residential Rehab Programme

At Abbington House, we adopt a flexible approach to treatment because we know that recovery looks different for everyone, and we’ve created a programme that reflects this.

Our intimate setting allows us the time and resources to build a treatment programme specific to you and your needs. We offer a single programme, but its length ranges between two and four weeks and the duration is decided following an initial assessment of your needs.

You will stay at Abbington House for the duration of treatment as our clinic is equipped to provide both detox and therapy onsite. Unlike many other rehabs, we have the time to adjust your treatment based on your progress and personal circumstances.

Medically Supervised Detox

For some of our clients, detox is a necessary first step in their recovery journey. While detox is not required for everyone, those who do need it can feel assured that they are in safe hands. Our experienced medical team provides round-the-clock care, ensuring a safe and comfortable detox process.

A Balance of Evidence-Based and Holistic Therapies

Our programme incorporates the 12 Steps as a guiding framework, alongside a range of evidence-based therapies, ensuring an approach that is both structured and adaptable.

We offer:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – A therapy to help you challenge negative thought patterns and develop healthier coping strategies.
  • Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) – Helps support your emotional regulation and interpersonal skills.
  • Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) – A trauma-focused therapy to help process distressing memories.
  • Group Therapy – Providing connection, peer support and shared experiences.
  • One-to-One Therapy – Offering personal, intimate sessions to discuss your issues and the tools you need to overcome them.
  • Family Therapy – Helping to rebuild relationships and create a supportive home environment post-treatment.

We also integrate holistic therapies to support overall well-being, including:

  • Yoga – Promoting physical and mental harmony through movement.
  • Meditation – Encouraging mindfulness and inner peace.
  • Sound Therapy/Gong Bath – Using sound vibrations to support relaxation and healing.
  • Breath Work – Using the power of breath to reduce stress and enhance well-being.
  • Qigong – A practice that combines movement, breath and meditation for overall balance.
  • Art Therapy – Using creativity as a therapeutic outlet.
  • Reiki – Encouraging relaxation and emotional balance.
Our residential programme includes clean and spacious accommodation provided by Abbington House. Switching off from the daily stressors is an essential part of the detox and rehabilitation journey and our tranquil rooms are designed to aid sleep during the programme.
As part of our holistic approach to treatment we acknowledge the important role that good nutrition plays in addiction recovery. Our onsite chefs create nourishing, balanced meals to support our clients’ physical and mental wellbeing, helping them feel rejuvenated throughout their stay.

Your Journey Starts Here

We know that choosing a rehab can feel overwhelming, but at Abbington House, we make the process simple and supportive. No complex jargon, no fear-mongering - just a clear, compassionate approach that puts you at the centre of your own recovery. Wherever you are in your journey, we can help.

Mental Health Support

The strong link between mental health and addiction should not be ignored, and as part of our programme, we offer support for any clients dealing with neurodiversity, bereavement and eating disorders. If you’re navigating ADHD, autism, grief or disordered eating, we ensure your treatment plan reflects this, and incorporate the best therapies to help treat these co-occurring disorders. Our holistic approach ensures that we don’t just treat symptoms, but help you build a foundation for long-term wellness.

Family Therapy and Aftercare

Recovery doesn’t end when you finish rehab and support post-treatment is essential in helping you maintain your progress. Addiction is often referred to as a ‘family disease’ as it affects loved ones as well as the individual. At Abbington House, we recognise the vital role family plays in long-term success, which is why we offer family therapy and aftercare as key parts of our programme to help you rebuild trust and communication as part of the healing process.

Our aftercare programme ensures that you continue to receive support after leaving Abbington House. We help you transition back into daily life with confidence, offering guidance, resources, and ongoing contact to support your long-term recovery. Maintaining sobriety is a journey, and we are committed to help you at every stage.
