Our approach is person-centred and holistic. That means we understand that each person is unique and we don’t subscribe to a one-site-fits-all philosophy.
The first part of your alcohol addiction treatment is a medically supervised alcohol detox. This is a simple procedure that provides all the clinical support you need to withdraw safely from alcohol.
You’ll be introduced to some light therapy and prescribed medication, if necessary, to help you recover at your own pace.
Your stay at Delamere will begin with a safe, managed detox with our expert medical team.
We understand that beginning an alcohol detox can seem daunting. When you stay with us, you will be supported by our medical team who are on site 24/7.
Your detox regime will be tailored to your body to manage any symptoms you present with. You will receive regular observations from medical professionals to ensure any treatment provided is right for you.
When you arrive with us, you will be assigned your own focal counsellor, mentor, and dedicated nurse. They will be there to support you through your journey with us.
Once you’re ready, you will start therapy sessions with your focal counsellor and in group settings.
As you begin to feel more settled at Delamere, you will receive more intensive, structured therapy. Our team will help you identify the triggers of your addiction and introduce strategies and therapeutic techniques to help you manage them.
We’re proud to offer one-to-one counselling and mentoring 4 times per week with our expert team of therapists and mentors. This is complemented by group sessions, wellness therapies, and experiential sessions to support your body and mind during your stay with us.
The final phase of your stay with Delamere will start to prepare you for your life after you leave our retreat.
You’ll discover how to apply coping mechanisms and survival strategies to real life situations. We’ll work with you, your family, and loved ones to help you plan for life after your stay with Delamere.
Once you graduate and return home, our care doesn’t simply end. We provide 15 months of ongoing aftercare to help you navigate life after alcohol addiction treatment. You can even stay in touch with those who have shared your journey here at Delamere and call on the expertise of our expert team.
When you stay with Delamere, you can benefit from a two-week extension to our core 28-day programme.
During these extra two weeks, we use Delamere’s industry leading neuroscience-based assessment tool to understand how your emotional and stress systems are working.
Your two-week extension is scientifically designed to identify the root causes of addiction. This includes combining comprehensive assessments, experiential therapies, and responsibly structured off-site days.
This process takes the guesswork out of addiction treatment, allowing our expert team to match your care precisely to what your nervous system actually needs.
