Kensington Clinic, Alcohol Addiction Counselling Services New Zealand Wide.
Alcohol Addiction Counselling and Treatment Services.
The Kensington Clinic provides a comprehensive six-week alcohol treatment program specifically designed for working people and parents.
The alcohol treatment program at the Kensington Clinic employs Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), a well-established and evidence-based approach recognised globally for the leading treatment of alcohol addiction.
Our alcohol treatment program, also known as an outpatient rehab, is run in conjunction with the Addiction Clinic – New Zealand’s leading Alcohol Addiction clinic.
CBT aids clients in comprehending the thoughts and emotions that drive their addictive behaviors. Through this therapeutic method, participants learn to recognize their drinking triggers, alter negative thought patterns, and cultivate healthier habits. The therapy offers practical strategies for managing cravings and preventing relapse.
Our integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with proven relapse prevention strategies has shown enhanced efficacy in the treatment of Alcohol Use Disorder.
Alcohol addiction needs a pragmatic approach. Simply going to some support groups or a generic counseling service will not work. It may work in the short term, but you run the risk of becoming addicted to other substances or behaviors, or falling back to where you started.
The best treatment for alcoholics is a mix of cognitive behavioral therapy and alcohol specific relapse prevention strategies. The same strategy is applied in reputable rehabs and treatment centres
Alcohol Treatment Program for Working People and Parents.
Our six-week alcohol addiction treatment program is thoughtfully crafted for working professionals, parents, and farmers who may find it challenging to attend a traditional rehabilitation facility due to time constraints.
This treatment program is founded on the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Relapse Prevention. It effectively replicates the therapeutic environment of a rehabilitation setting without the necessity of residential treatment. Participants have the flexibility to engage in the program in person, via Zoom, or over the telephone.
Throughout the six-week course, you will work with a specialised alcohol addiction therapist. This will include weekly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy sessions, relapse prevention sessions, and daily check-ins conducted by phone.
Our program has been designed by experienced therapists and individuals in recovery from alcohol addiction, making it the first of its kind in New Zealand. It aims to deliver significant results in the most efficient manner possible while accommodating your professional obligations.
Whats the process to get into the Alcohol Addiction Treatment Program?
Our Alcohol Treatment program is very popular, and we have a two to three-week wait list. We only take self-referrals and referrals from doctors.
The first thing you need to do is undertake is a phone assessment – this allows us to assess your level of addiction in regards to alcohol withdrawal. From this point, you can move forward to the second phase, or we may refer to your GP for more information regarding the best way forward.
We will work with you to find the desired outcome regardless of your acceptance into our Alcohol Addiction Program.
