If you are based in Teddington, a suburb in southwest London in the London Borough of Richmond and you are searching for private drug and alcohol rehab, please know there are various options available to you. Starting the journey to recovery may be a difficult and emotional process. Not only does it take admitting to the problem, but also requires focus and structure.
Drug and Alcohol Rehab Teddington
Denial and ambivalence can take hold, but please know that private rehab, along with some free local treatment services are close. Starting the journey of sobriety alone can be a difficult task. The withdrawal symptoms alone can be troubling if you go “cold turkey”.
You must never suddenly stop the consumption of a substance without supervision, which is why it is important to look at rehabilitation options, either inpatient or outpatient immediately. When drug or alcohol addiction takes hold, you will find that the discomfort is troubling, and without proper help, even if you manage to wean yourself to some extent, there is a huge possibility of increased risk of relapse.
Oftentimes, your judgement can be impaired, you may struggle to think coherently, and anxiety and depression may take hold. If you want to reach out to your GP in Teddington first, this can be an excellent first idea. They can give you information on local services, updated health information and more.

Each rehab programme is broken up into three key phases.
1. 7 Day Detox
This is a type of withdrawal process, undertaken in a medical setting, in which you will stop consuming the substances that you are addicted to. In the case of alcohol and drug detox, there may be varying withdrawal symptoms but they are often eased by the actions of our care team. Sometimes, supportive medication is used. You will rejuvenate, the toxins will be removed from your liver and bloodstream, and you will be able to regain good cognitive function.
2. Psychotherapies and Counselling
This process is the chunk of your addiction therapy. At drug and alcohol rehab Teddington, you will spend your time healing your trauma, as well as learning to process your thoughts, understand your behavioural patterns and change your habits and attitudes to alter your reality. Your quality of life also improves. You will likely be introduced to certain therapies such as:
- Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
- Group counselling
- Individual/Family Counselling
- Mindfulness
- Art therapy
These therapies are run by professionals, who will take time to adapt the programme to your needs. Each patient at drug and alcohol rehab Teddington receives a bespoke plan that is tailor-made to individual needs. A guarantee for success for every patient.
3. Reintegration and Aftercare Plan
Integration is when you return to normal life and resume your lifestyle in a healthy manner. At drug and alcohol rehab in Teddington, you will have to learn a number of life skills. However, often the support and guidance sessions will continue after you leave us.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pick the right rehabilitation programme?
Ultimately the best programme is the one that suits your set of circumstances. It’s important to keep in mind your budget, whether you want to go through rehab on an inpatient or outpatient basis and if you wish to go to rehab close to or far away from your home. The need to get treatment might feel urgent but making a quick wrong decision will hamper future efforts at staying clean – so take the time to research.
Is it safe to detox at home?
Detoxing without any medical guidance and alone, known as going cold turkey, is a path that some addicts take. If you can afford to undergo medical detoxification then this is recommended. The severity of withdrawal is impossible to predict and there can be complications that may result in a medical emergency. Seizures and delirium tremens caused by withdrawal can result in death. Without medication or care, the process may be very unpleasant and increase the risk of relapse.
What happens after rehab?
After leaving rehab, you will have access to our aftercare package, which focuses on relapse prevention. Many people leaving rehab continue to attend support meetings and stay connected with former addicts to increase the chances of long-term recovery. Hopefully, during your time with us, you will have learnt techniques and tips to help you deal with triggers and urges. The hope is that whatever happens after rehab, it’s better than what came before.
