At Rehab 4 Addiction, we offer rehab services in Hertfordshire. We refer you to the drug and alcohol rehabs suited to your needs.
Addiction is a huge problem in Hertfordshire and the rest of the UK. Drug and alcohol-related deaths are on the rise.
No matter what addiction you suffer from, we are here to help. Below you can find info about rehabs in Hertfordshire. We also answer some common queries about rehab more generally.
We offer a secure, confidential service for those in need of treatment. We may recommend that you go to a residential clinic to get clean. This allows you to remove yourself from your ‘using’ environment. It’s also possible to pursue outpatient treatment options.
After going through a detox, you have the option of rehab therapy. This will help to deal with the underlying issues which fuel your drug-taking.
Our trained therapists have years of experience listening to people’s problems. They can help you get over past trauma and move towards a better life.
Our service has a refined admissions process to keep stress to a minimum.
This process begins when you contact us. We will give you an assessment, and then point you towards some good treatment options in the Hertfordshire area.
Here are some signs that you may need to get treatment.
Are you debating whether to go to drug or alcohol rehab in Hertfordshire? Here are some questions to ask yourself:
Below we offer a simple version of the Hertfordshire rehab process. This will help you to understand how quick and easy the process is.
Rehab begins with assessment meant to come up with a treatment program that suits you perfectly.
When you begin your treatment programme, you will initially be assessed by a psychiatrist. You will be prescribed medication to help offset withdrawal symptoms you will experience during your detoxification programme.
Our rehab Hertfordshire services are world-class. After admission, you will be medically observed by our doctors for a day after which you will be subjected to detox that lasts for 5 to 10 days. During detox, we will administer drugs to deal with withdrawal symptoms.
This phase gets rid of addictive substances in the body. A medically supervised detoxification is recommended at all times due to the medical complications that can arise during this process.
These complications include:
While detox treats the physical aspects of your addiction, rehabilitation addresses the psychological and mental issues relating to your addiction.
This phase lays a foundation for long-term treatment and recovery. After detox, you will go through different therapy and counselling sessions to learn advanced coping strategies. All our services are offered by professionals in a respectful and patient manner.
Therapy and counselling sessions are meant to help you discover the root causes of your addiction and offer you a support system you can rely on after rehab is over.
This phase lays the foundation for continued healing and full recovery. It includes sober living, support groups, and continued therapy.

Residential rehab in Hertfordshire have many benefits. Patients get 24/7 medical care from addiction professionals, which ensures a safe detox. Patients also live in comfortable surroundings. These experts include healthcare professionals such as mental health nurses, psychiatrists, addiction therapists and dietitians.
The rehab is located in a suburban location. The rehab has twenty-one ensuite and single occupancy bedrooms. The rehab is home to a large dining room with three recreational rooms.
You have access to a kitchen. The rehab employs kitchen staff to prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is also an onsite gymnasium, with a large garden area. The rehab is also located close to a wooded area and a large public park. This means you may take daily walks and enjoy lots of fresh air.
When you try to stop, you may experience withdrawal symptoms. These can range from mild to very severe. In the most extreme cases, such as those with severe alcoholism, they can be life-threatening. This explains why detox should be completed under medical care.
Medical help makes detox safe and manageable. It also reduces the probability of a relapse.
Quitting drugs or alcohol on your own can result in severe withdrawal symptoms. Those who try to quit on their own have a much higher chance of relapse.
One reason for this is that you need therapy to address the root causes of addiction. These can be complex. They can include mental health issues and childhood trauma.
There are many options to choose from. We recommend a private detox as this provides medical help and medication when needed.
Our medical staff will look after you 24/7. They will support you throughout your recovery.
We list your rehab options below:
Inpatient rehab involves receiving treatment in an inpatient facility. This type of rehab is more thorough since individuals with addiction problems are admitted to a facility and discharged after they complete a treatment program (usually after 4 – 12 weeks).
Outpatient rehab involves treatment in an outpatient rehab facility. Patients walk in-and-out of the facility on a daily basis to get treatment.
Due to the nature of the outpatient treatment, patients tend to have a lower chance of recovering fully since they can still get access to drugs or alcohol when they leave rehab daily.
Detox refers to treatment given to stop physical addiction to alcohol or drugs. Detox breaks tolerance to substances. It requires abstinence from substances and may require medication to deal with withdrawal symptoms.
Rehab therapy addresses the psychological aspects of addiction, which includes the emotions and thought processes that lead to addiction.
Rehab therapy also addresses aspects that encourage the behaviour and what makes it hard to stop. The therapy also equips patients with coping mechanisms and life skills for living a drug-free life.
Mornings in our Hertfordshire inpatient rehabs start with a healthy breakfast. Then come early meetings. Some programmes may have meditation or yoga classes. Daily meetings help patients spot bad patterns of behaviour.
In the afternoon, patients attend daily therapy. This includes one-to-one behavioural therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and more. It can include anger or stress management too.
You may also receive alternative therapy. This includes dance, equine therapy and art/music therapy. It also includes biofeedback, neurofeedback, and exercise therapy.
A typical day includes some free time in which you can relax. Evenings in rehab include dinner and evening group sessions.
Evening sessions may also include the 12-step programme. This has been proven to help those in recovery stay sober.
Loved ones with addiction problems may resist going to Hertfordshire rehab. One way to help them overcome this resistance is to show empathy.
Showing concern, listening, and avoiding criticism are all good strategies too. You should encourage responsibility without placing blame. You could also consider staging an intervention if you think that might help.
Finally, remember to create boundaries. You should try to help your loved one, but you shouldn’t get too involved in their problems.
Our Rehab Hertfordshire therapy services include:
Yes. If your family follows the facility rules, they can visit as much as they want. Every rehab has a list of guidelines for visits. Make sure to check these before you visit. There will be a list of visiting hours. There may also be a list of some things you can and can’t bring.
Before you tell your boss you are going to Hertfordshire rehab, understand your legal rights. You should prepare yourself legally and mentally.
It helps to be honest and brave. If for whatever reason telling your boss isn’t worth it, you aren’t obligated to say anything. You can use your holiday time to go to rehab.
It’s usually in your best interest to finish any rehab programme you start. Leaving early can reduce your chances of enjoying a good recovery.
Even if you feel like leaving, try to stick it out. It will be worth it in the long run.
After going to one of our Hertfordshire treatment centres, patients go through one-to-one therapy. This is to uncover the root causes of addiction. It is also to find ways of coping without substances. Patients get regular check-ups to make sure they are on the right track.
They can also make use of support groups and 12-step programmes. These are to help with staying sober.
At Rehab 4 Addiction, we believe your recovery depends on making lasting changes to your way of life. You need to take build a life free from drink and drugs.
The lessons learnt in rehab should help with staying sober. These lessons make you a stronger person and more vigilant with cravings and other signs of relapse.
We recognise it may be difficult to put these changes into place. For this reason, we offer aftercare as part of our treatment plans. Aftercare gives you the right to attend support groups and call us for advice and help. Many of our team have been through the same thing. We’re here for you in this difficult time.
