If you or a loved one has a problem with cannabis, we’re here to help. We have a team of qualified experts who can guide you through withdrawal safely at our private retreat.
Cannabis is still one of the most popular recreational drugs in the world. In England and Wales, 6.8% of adults aged 16 to 59 admitted to using it last year (to March 2024)¹ and it remains the most common substance (86%) that children come into rehab for.²
Often seen as a softer drug, cannabis is surprisingly addictive, especially for people who abuse it regularly. This includes medicinal use to aid sleep, manage pain or anxiety. When a daily habit becomes addiction, it may be time to explore rehab.
Cannabis rehab is a structured programme that helps you to reduce or stop use safely. It addresses psychological and behavioural patterns that fuel your addiction. At our private facility in the UK, we support adults of all ages with personalised treatment plans that combine a cannabis detox with evidence-based therapies.
“Delamere focuses on equipping you with the tools to love sobriety and understand what led to the addiction in the first place which really helped me grow.” – Former Delamere Guest
Not everyone who uses cannabis needs rehab, so how do you know if it’s necessary? You may feel like your cannabis use is under control, but if you’re having cravings every day or finding it hard to quit, there are some signs you may need help.
It’s not always easy to notice the shift from casual use to drug dependence. These signs show it might be time to consider rehab.
If you’re taking a lot of cannabis regularly you may notice certain physical and mental symptoms in between uses, such as:
These symptoms suggest your mind and body may have become reliant on cannabis. It may be time to seek professional help.
“Cannabis is the ultimate ‘de-motivator’ and when addiction takes hold users often become isolated in the extreme.”
Private addiction treatment at Delamere begins with a medically assisted cannabis detox to help your body overcome the physical aspects of addiction. The next step addresses the psychological aspects and root causes of your problem.
At Delamere, our focus is on holistic therapy, which means we treat the whole person rather than just their symptoms, physically, emotionally and mentally.
Our four-phase cannabis rehab programme has been crafted over time and has helped many people recover. Together we will help you Stop, Start, Grow, & Bloom.
This phase addresses any physical aspects of your addiction. Our medical team is on hand 24/7 to ensure a safe and effective withdrawal.
During ‘Start’ we help identify the psychological underpinnings of your dependency as you participate in a variety of addiction treatment therapies.
Our ‘Grow’ phase is the process of integrating the Delamere learning experience into life after treatment.
Our ‘Bloom’ phase offers intensive support on a weekly basis for the first three months of recovery once guests return home.
If you’re looking for help for a friend, working with someone or living alongside someone who is displaying signs of a weed addiction, we’re here to help.
At Delamere, we provide family support services and intervention services for those who are in denial of the extent of their cannabis addiction, or who are even refusing to acknowledge that they have a problem. If you are considering organising an intervention for your loved one, friend, or colleague, call us today on 0330 111 2015.
A cannabis-addicted brain will need intensive healing following a detox to stay cannabis-free. At Delamere, we achieve this through a four-phase programme consisting of evidence-based therapies, emotionally enriching and nurturing activities, holistic therapies, and instilling new and healthier coping strategies and behaviours. We believe that it is important to treat all aspects of each individual guest – mind, body, and spirit.
To treat all aspects of our guests and their addictions, at Delamere we have created a 3-step treatment programme that differs significantly from other rehabs in the UK. This involves:
During your time at Delamere, you will receive two 1-1 counselling sessions and two Recovery Mentoring sessions a week, group therapy, and a range of holistic treatments.
Our addiction treatment programmes typically last for 28 days. The first week is focused on breaking the physical and mental addiction. This is followed by intensive therapy. Once home, we will support your recovery with 15 months of in-person or remote peer-supported aftercare. Quitting cannabis is a lifelong commitment but we are here for you all the way.
People who have been smoking weed or consuming cannabis for a long time are most at risk of developing dependence. Sometimes, your home environment makes it difficult to stop and extra support is needed to break the habit. You may also have concurrent medical problems, such as mental health issues, which can make the path to recovery more challenging.
Trying to overcome any addiction alone is challenging. As well as the difficulty of managing withdrawal symptoms, you don’t have the tools to address the underlying psychological reasons for your cannabis problem. Structured approaches, like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and motivational interventions, can help to prevent relapse and improve chances of success with ongoing support. Everything we offer at Delamere aims at effective and lasting outcomes in addiction treatment.
