Why Choose Rehab in Guildford?

Guildford is a historic town best known for Guildford Castle, built after the Norman conquest of 1066, and Loseley Park with its 16^th century manor house. The areas around Guildford are rural, with countryside enveloping the south.

Our rehab centres in Guildford are located near greenery with private grounds. We offer a safe, peaceful break away from your normal life, with luxurious accommodation and lots of activities to keep your mind and body active.

As a place to enter rehab, Guildford is as good a place as any if you live in the south. It’s connected to the capital and is very close to the Surrey Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It’s a splendid place to heal and recover in.

Outpatient and Inpatient Programmes

You can undergo a recovery programme as an inpatient or outpatient.

Inpatient rehab

Inpatients stay in luxurious accommodation at our clinic and undergo a more intensive recovery programme. A clinical environment is the safest space for your detox and it also pulls you out of your normal social environment.

Outpatient rehab

Outpatients stay at home and undergo a home detox. This type of programme may not include therapy depending on your needs. The risk of relapse is higher, but the programme is lower in cost.

Which is right for me?

We always recommend inpatient rehab because alcoholics are at a high risk of relapse. The same goes for addictions to hard drugs (opiates) and drugs that are easy to access like legal highs.

For patients who are at a low risk of relapse or need a prescription drug detox, an outpatient programme may be suitable.

Please call us on 0800 118 2892 to find out which is best for you.

What Does Rehab Involve?

Your rehabilitation will include a medicated detox to cleanse your body and bring your addiction under control. It will also include therapy in some form, to help you resolve the habits and triggers that lead you to alcohol or drugs.

These treatments will form the foundation of your recovery programme, although the nuances of your treatment will be unique to you.

As part of your rehab in Guildford, you will:

• Undergo a detox
• Be on withdrawal medication
• Undergo therapy
• Stay in clinical care for 2-4 weeks

If you are an outpatient, you will benefit from the same except you will undergo your detox at home, not in clinical care.

Your detox

Detoxing is the most difficult stage of rehabilitation because your body is not used to withdrawal. It has become accustomed to drink or drugs. A detox will cleanse your body and give it the opportunity to reset itself.

Your withdrawal symptoms will be managed with medication. Although your withdrawal symptoms will still be intense, your detox will be manageable and our nurses will be with you to provide care when you need it.

Your therapy

You may or may not need therapy depending on your circumstances, however most people benefit from at least talking to a therapist.

You may benefit from:

• Talking therapies
• Behavioural therapy
• Counselling
• Motivational interviews
• Interpersonal psychotherapy

Your rehab will include therapy so that we can resolve the habits, behaviours and triggers that lead you to alcohol or drugs.

Continued abstinence

Your Guildford rehab clinic will continue to provide specialist care after you leave clinical care. We can arrange additional therapy and a peer mentor or sponsor – someone who is in recovery but at a later stage than yourself.

We believe that with the right help, support and understanding, anyone can overcome their addiction and go on to lead a healthy life.
