When to Look for Help

In Reading, an estimated 84% of individuals dependent on alcohol are not receiving the treatment they need. Additionally, 39.7% of those battling an addiction to opiates or crack cocaine lack adequate support. If you or someone you know is living with dependency, remember – you don’t have to face it alone. Help is available.

The first step to becoming alcohol and drug-free is reflection. As you are reading this now, you have already come a long way because you have recognised a potential issue with your drinking or drug usage.

If you’re not sure if you have a problem with alcohol and drugs, you should think about the issues in your current life and how they interlink with alcohol and drug use.

Addiction can happen to anyone, and it forms a powerful influence over your brain, making it particularly difficult to admit to. However, if you think it influences your daily life, you should consider calling our drug and alcohol rehab centre in Reading. An initial assessment will be done with the help of a professional, who can help you understand your situation better.

It’s never too early or too late to ask for help. If left untreated, your addiction will kill you, so it’s imperative you seek help as soon as you can. If you’re ready to give up alcohol and/or drugs, do not hesitate to contact us on 01923 804 139 or via our online contact form.

 

Alcohol Rehab Reading

 

What to Expect

If you realise you have a problem and accept our help, the next part of the treatment process can start. The first step is often Detox.

The detoxification process tends to be vital in the choice to visit a rehab centre, and here, we provide a medically assisted detox service under the watchful eye of trained detoxification specialists.

For sufferers of Alcoholism, for instance, it can be very dangerous to complete an alcohol detox at home, as the withdrawal symptoms can be particularly nasty. Tremors and serious anxiety attacks can be very common in people who have been drinking for a long time.

At our drug and alcohol rehab centre in Reading, we have medical professionals who supervise you throughout the detoxification process. This is important as there can be immediate help in case your health is in danger.

After your body becomes alcohol-free, it is time for your mind to follow. At our drug and alcohol rehab centre in Reading, we help you arm yourself with the necessary tools to stay alcohol and drug-free, even after your treatment is complete. We employ a mix of holistic therapists and modern psychologists.

Therapy Treatments

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is the most common type of therapy used to treat addiction, as its focus is on changing thought processes and behavioural patterns.

Through CBT, you’ll understand your addiction and its triggers, which, in turn, will help you change negative thought processes and habits through psychoeducation.

You’ll develop strategies you can implement daily to help maintain your long-term recovery. Alongside CBT, we offer a variety of therapy treatment options, including Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, which is not unlike CBT but focuses on understanding, accepting and managing strong emotions.

We consider peer support an integral aspect of your recovery, so we will encourage you to undertake group therapy sessions and workshops, where you’ll learn from your peers and start to develop a support network before you return to your daily life.

 

Cocaine Rehab in Reading

Here at Cassiobury Court, we offer dedicated treatment programmes for those who are battling cocaine addiction.

Our cocaine detox and rehabilitation programmes are entirely tailored to the individual to ensure that we can provide a bespoke plan that is highly effective in treating cocaine dependency, no matter how unique the circumstances.

For those entering our rehab clinic for cocaine addiction, patients can expect access to around-the-clock care every step of the way, a range of intensive therapy sessions, and the ability to enjoy our world-class facilities.

 

Cannabis Rehab in Reading

Cannabis addiction presents its own unique set of challenges. For many, the misconception that cannabis is an entirely harmless substance can mask the dangers of prolonged and excessive use.

Individuals who regularly use cannabis may experience cognitive impairments, reduced motivation, memory issues, and a distorted sense of time. Over time, heavy users might rely on the drug just to function in their day-to-day lives, and stopping abruptly can lead to uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, insomnia, and anxiety.

At Cassiobury Court, we truly recognise how difficult it can be to overcome cannabis addiction. That’s why we offer tailored treatment programmes to assist those in need.

Our plans include a structured detox process, ensuring the drug is safely removed from the system, followed by various therapies to address the psychological aspects of addiction. With a comprehensive aftercare plan, we ensure that individuals have the support and resources they need to maintain long-term sobriety and lead a fulfilling life in recovery.

 

Prescription Drug Rehab in Reading

Prescription medications are often prescribed for medical reasons. Some often have the potential for misuse, leading to prescription drug addiction.

Unfortunately, opioids, sedatives, and certain stimulants can lead to physical and psychological dependence, even when taken as prescribed. Over time, individuals might take higher doses than recommended or use the drugs when they are no longer required. This can result in various issues, including respiratory depression, memory issues, and increased risk of overdose.

Cassiobury Court offers specialised treatment programmes to treat prescription drug addiction in Reading. These programmes are personalised, starting with a thorough detox phase. This is followed by a range of therapeutic interventions, targeting the root causes of addiction and teaching helpful coping strategies to prepare individuals for life after rehab.

The aftercare component ensures ongoing support, which is often deemed essential for those recovering from prescription drug addiction.

 

Alcohol Rehab in Reading

Alcohol addiction in Reading, much like in other parts of the UK, is a significant issue.

Social acceptance of drinking can sometimes obscure the line between moderation and excess. Chronic alcohol consumption can lead to many problems, including liver damage, cardiovascular issues, cognitive decline, and increased risk of accidents. The physical and psychological hold that alcohol has on individuals can be strong, leading many to prioritise drinking over personal and professional responsibilities.

We can offer a robust and comprehensive alcohol addiction treatment programme for those in need. Recognising the unique challenges each individual faces, our clinic provides personalised treatment plans that target the individual’s unique needs, which are determined on a case-by-case basis.

Typically, alcohol addiction treatment starts with a detox phase, helping individuals navigate the withdrawal symptoms of alcohol, which can be severe. Therapeutic interventions follow, addressing the psychological underpinnings of addiction and equipping individuals with the tools to prevent relapse.

Those who receive inpatient alcohol addiction treatment will also be provided with a thorough aftercare plan, ensuring that every individual has the support and resources needed for sustained sobriety.

 

Dual-Diagnosis Treatment

At Cassiobury Court, all of our treatment programmes are based on a medical examination that assesses your physical and psychological well-being. Based on these results, our expert team will design an addiction treatment programme specifically tailored to you.

Since addiction holds a powerful influence over your mind and can be caused by or cause mental health issues, you cannot expect to recover from your addiction without a combination of both physical and psychological treatments.

No matter the type of addiction you have or the length of time you’ve been using, every individual who enters our drug rehabilitation centre undergoes both detox and therapy treatments.

Together, this dual-diagnosis treatment will help your mind and body to recover and give you an understanding of your addiction and how to manage any cravings and temptations in daily life.

Life After Rehab

Upon completing your drug and alcohol rehab in Reading, you’ll be provided with a relapse prevention plan to help you maintain your long-term recovery.

We understand that the first twelve months after rehab are the most challenging and likely time for relapse, which is why we provide aftercare services.

Peer support is the most effective form of support you can receive, which is why we’ll help to link you up with local support groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics.

These groups will provide you with support in the most challenging moments in life after rehab. Since rehabilitation is not just something you can complete in 28 days, it must become part of your lifestyle.

Re-entering daily life can be daunting, especially since you might not know what to expect from loved ones. We can also provide extra therapy, advice and guidance to help you settle back into daily life, rebuild your relationships and find employment once again.
