World Class Addiction Treatment
We Believe That Addiction Treatment Is Most Effective When It’s Customised to the Individual Being Treated
We understand that every patient at Castle Craig has a unique story and unique needs.
Treating Addiction Since 1988
So instead of a “one size fits all” approach, our expert staff of addiction specialists works directly with patients to craft a personalised treatment programme. This allows patients to address their behavioural addiction in a supportive environment that they themselves have helped create.
Why Give Programme Options for Addiction Care?
We see the benefits of this level of personalised care for addiction treatment as:
- Gives the patient ownership and responsibility in their own recovery
- Focuses on the specific reasons for addiction, not just the behaviour itself
- Holistically addresses the needs of the patient – physical, mental, and emotional
- Treatment can evolve as the needs of the patient dictate
- Better allows for customised relapse prevention strategies

What Are the Benefits of These Individualised Treatment Options?
We’re not just stopping addiction – we’re giving our patients a chance at regaining their physical health and equipping them with a set of therapeutic skills and tools that will last a lifetime. From admissions to detox, to treatment, to relapse prevention, we are constantly looking for opportunities for patients to not just overcome their addiction, but to grow as a person. More specifically, Castle Craig seeks to assist patients in:
- Impulse control – learning how to balance short-term desires with long-term goals
- Combat negative feelings – gaining the therapeutic tools to combat negative self-talk
- Problem-solving skills – using CBT as a method for solving real-world issues
- Relapse prevention techniques – preparing for future temptations and how to handle them
- Sober networking – helping to create a group of supportive, sober friends
- Develop healthy habits – encouraging new behaviours that advance patients’ mental and physical health
- Holistic mindset – developing an understanding of how addiction affects the mind, body, and spirit
How Can Castle Craig Help?
Who will I speak to when I call Castle Craig?
When you call you will reach our Help Centre team who will give you all the information you need to help you decide whether to choose treatment at Castle Craig. If you decide that you would like to have a free screening assessment you will be asked a series of questions to build up a picture of your medical and drug use history as well as any mental health issues you are facing. If you decide you want to proceed with treatment you will be put in touch with our admissions case managers who will guide you through the admissions process.
How long is the rehab programme?
Residential rehab treatment starts at 4 weeks and can go up to 12+ weeks. Research shows us that the longer you stay in rehab and are part of the residential therapy programme, the longer the likelihood of continued abstinence and stable recovery.
How do I pay for rehab?
One concern we sometimes hear from people is how they will fund their rehab treatment. You can pay for treatment at Castle Craig privately, or through medical insurance, and some people receive funding through the NHS. The cost of rehab varies depending on what kind of accommodation you choose.
What happens at the end of my treatment?
Castle Craig thoroughly prepares patients before departure by creating a personalised continuing care plan which is formulated following discussions with the medical and therapeutic team. We offer an online aftercare programme which runs for 24 weeks after leaving treatment, in order to ensure a smooth transition back into your everyday life. Patients leaving treatment automatically join our Recovery Club where they can stay connected via our annual reunion, events, online workshops and recovery newsletters.
