At Cassiobury Court, we offer a residential drug rehab service for addiction to drugs at our London rehab centre. We provide comprehensive treatment programmes, expert medical and psychiatric staff, and a way forward for those seeking sobriety.
Our treatment programmes are directed by medical professionals who ensure a completely safe and therapeutic environment for our clients in treatment. Each addiction programme is tailored to the individual, with clients assessed prior to rehab admission to determine which treatment methods are appropriate.
Other factors that can influence the addiction treatment received include the type of drug an individual is taking, the severity of the addiction, the client’s psychological condition, and their personality.

Our counsellors at Cassiobury Court are highly qualified and respected in their field, with a particular focus on showing empathy towards our clients. Many of our staff, in particular, have experience with the illness of drug addiction, which helps them identify what’s needed for recovery and make a personal connection to our clients.
Having this personal connection towards drug rehab and rehabilitation programmes allows our staff to deal with many of the misconceptions surrounding how treatment for drug addictions should work.
At Cassiobury Court, we understand that there are many factors that can lead to addiction and relapse, which have been taken into account for the rehabilitation programme to be effective.
Prior to initial admission, an individual will undergo a drug addiction assessment as part of the admissions process. Here, a psychiatrist will assess the physical and psychological nature of the addiction and any potential dual-diagnosed mental health conditions an individual may be experiencing, like anxiety or depression. Once concluded, your notes will be assessed by our clinical team who will devise a recommended drug detoxification programme.
At the beginning of addiction treatment, the first stage is known as the drug detox process, where the body is rid of all traces of the drug. We recommend this be completed in a safe environment, observed by medical staff to ensure minimal complications. Prescription medications may also be required at this stage of treatment, which is, again, why we recommend detox occurs in the presence of our medically trained staff.
Once the body is clean of the drug after the medically assisted detox, the next stage of rehabilitation is therapy. Our therapies are designed to ensure that the client remains clean long after treatment ends. This can include group or one-to-one sessions with one of our counselling staff.
Long-term recovery is ultimately in the hands of the individual struggling with addiction, and therapy is important to get to the root cause of the addiction and identify what may trigger drug use.
There are two main types of drug rehab treatment currently available, inpatient and outpatient treatment. Both of these can be accessed by any individuals in need of rehabilitation for drug use and misuse.
At Cassiobury Court, we offer in-client (inpatient) treatment, also known as ‘residential’ treatment. Residential rehab treatment means an individual will physically live at the rehabilitation facility for around 10-28 days. During this time, those suffering from addiction receive around-the-clock care and attention from a team of caring professionals.
Outpatient treatment, on the other hand, typically takes place during the day at organised sessions, where an individual returns home during the evening. It’s generally not as intensive as inpatient treatment, which means that group sessions may only occur once or twice a week.
We generally only recommend the outpatient route for drug addiction treatment when it follows a residential programme, sometimes in the form of aftercare sessions.
Making the decision to start rehab for drugs in the UK will generally require some form of financial investment. The specifics depend on the type of treatment an individual requires, the addiction treatment centre they attend, and the duration of treatment.
As a rule of thumb, treatment centres offering a full residential experience will require a greater investment when compared to outpatient or so-called ‘quasi-residential’ treatment providers.
The cost of treatment for private drug rehab typically starts from around £4000. To find out the exact cost of drug rehab, call today on 01923 369 161.
The signs you should go to rehab for drug addiction treatment may not be immediately obvious. Over 275,896 adults were in contact with drug and alcohol services between April 2020 and March 2021 in the UK, highlighting the extent of the substance abuse issues.
However, there are a number of signs that may indicate the validity of attending a drug rehab treatment programme as opposed to attempting to cease your addiction unaided. Signs you should consider drug rehab include:
The amount of time spent in a rehab clinic depends upon the severity and history of your drug addiction. Since drug addiction is a mental, not physical, disorder, it takes time to tackle these issues using modern therapy sessions.
If your rehab stay is too short, an individual can’t expect to leave receiving sufficient treatment for these mental issues. And if the mental causes of your addiction are not sufficiently treated, relapse is more likely to occur.
Whilst it’s impossible to answer this question without a full assessment, the vast majority of people can make significant progress during therapy sessions when they agree to stay at the rehab centre for around 28 days, or four weeks.
Some individuals may require rehab of a longer duration, for instance for six-to-eight weeks..
For instance, addiction to opiates typically requires around 14 days to treat the physical withdrawal symptoms. If you are addicted to cocaine and attend cocaine rehab, you will likely suffer from psychological withdrawal symptoms, with these fading around a week after no usage.
It’s essential that an individual gives themselves enough time to recover from their addiction. When attending rehab, individuals will be encouraged to attend a tailored programme that’s been specifically designed to give them the best chance towards a long-term recovery.
