Programmes
Our community based clinical service provides comprehensive assessments and treatment for adults with co-existing disorders (Mental Health and Addiction). We work collaboratively with our Whānau Support service to provide wrap around support for wider whānau. We value self-determination and work alongside people to identify their goals. Whilst it is important to deal with the past, the recovery journey is not about getting back to normal but rather finding the individuals new normal.
