Our commitment to long-term abstinence has created a successful program of clinical and complementary therapies for mind, body, and spirit.

Serving over 10,000 patients for more than 30 years, the Castle Craig model is proven to change lives. Our team of addiction experts works together to integrate appropriate therapies into personalised treatment programmes that address each patient’s unique needs.

We offer a wide variety of therapies that we tailor into a personalised treatment programme that suits the needs of each individual.

Many of our therapists have personal experience of recovery and we assign a focal therapist to each patient who conducts individual psychotherapy. We treat both primary addiction issues and secondary mental health problems. These are often referred to as dual diagnoses.

We also offer a number of specialised group therapies that are directed towards specific goals, such as eating disorder therapy, women’s group therapy, relapse prevention group, relationship therapy and cross-addiction
