We offer two types of rehab treatment in Surrey and near Surrey: inpatient and outpatient.
Below, we outline the difference between the two forms of rehab treatment:
At residential drug & alcohol rehabilitation in Surrey, patients stay on-site both during the night and day.
This may achieve effective results compared to other forms of rehab treatment, simply because you are removed from temptation.
A team of qualified rehab staff watch over you at all times.
This team can provide you with the medication you need as and when you need it, helping you to dea with your withdrawal symptoms whilst at rehab.
After this time, a team of rehab therapists will handle the mental side of addiction.
Every day you will go through therapy and meditation to help heal your mind and build you up to sustain a drug and alcohol-free life after rehab.
Another treatment option in Surrey is ‘outpatient’ rehab recovery.
This is where patients come to a rehab clinic for a few hours each day for treatment.
Whilst at the rehab clinic, they will receive counselling and therapy sessions and may also receive support for a home detox.
Outpatient rehab treatment is good for those who are on a budget, as well as those who cannot afford to take much time off work or who have other responsibilities, such as childcare.

An intervention is a good way to get through to someone who can’t see that they have an addiction problem or who struggles to understand the causes of the addiction they suffer from and their need for rehab treatment.
There are two approaches to this: the traditional intervention approach and the CRAFT approach. [1]
In a traditional approach, those who are concerned about the addiction sufferer will air their fears in a meeting led by a professional interventionist, aiming to make them see how much rehab is needed.
They may read out letters detailing how the addiction problems have affected them, what they hope can change in the future and how they would like things to be moving forward, often providing a route for improvement through local rehab treatment.
The CRAFT approach is more gentle and involves a longer period of work from friends and family, rather than just a single confrontation.
In this approach, families learn how to communicate effectively and provide positive reinforcement when the addiction sufferer resists temptations or makes moves to pursue rehab treatment, whilst also avoiding any chances to reinforce bad behaviour.
Most importantly, this is all about learning to cope with these situations and coming together to support your loved one and guide them towards drug and alcohol rehab.
If you have the right structures and environment to help you get through denial, the rest of rehab recovery will be much easier.

The price of drug & alcohol rehabilitation in Surrey can vary quite a bit, depending on several factors.
The biggest influences are the severity and type of your addiction, the kind of treatment you’re recommended and the kind of room you want if you’re going to residential rehab.
With Rehab 4 Addiction, a 10-day detox within a single occupancy rehab room in Surrey will cost around £3,000 to £6,000. A multiple occupancy rehab room will lower the cost to around £2,000 to £4,000.
Many will, of course, need a stay at rehab longer than 10 days, which will of course change the cost.
A 28-day stay within a single occupancy rehab room will be £8,000 to £12,000, whilst a multiple occupancy rehab room for that length of time will be £6,000.
Finally, you might be recommended for an at-home detox instead of attending rehab in Surrey, which would usually come to around £1,500.
This is often an option recommended to those with less severe issues and will come alongside additional outpatient rehab treatment.
Once again, it all just depends on your specific rehab needs.
Below, we list several drug and alcohol rehabs in Surrey:
When looking over all of your rehab treatment options in Surrey, you might be considering either NHS addiction services or privately funded rehab.
There are certainly benefits to both and it’s something you should research in detail before making a final decision on your drug or alcohol rehab treatment in Surrey.
Overall, privately funded rehab is more personalised. This is very important, especially in more severe cases.
Every case is unique, with its own factors and contexts to consider, so a personalised rehab treatment plan will always be more effective.
You’ll also receive drug and alcohol rehab treatment much more quickly – a significant factor as addiction often worsens over time.
But that doesn’t mean that NHS rehab can’t also be a key part of addiction recovery.
There are several free and NHS-run addiction support services [2] and drug rehab initiatives available throughout Surrey, with some being operated by community NHS addiction teams [3] whilst others work through drug and alcohol addiction charities, including:

You can find additional addiction help outside of the rehab structure from organisations such as Al-Anon, Alateen, Turning Point, We Are With You, and Samaritans.
You can also reach out to places such as the National Association for Children of Alcoholics and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, alongside nearby alcohol and drug partnerships and your local NHS Foundation Trust in Surrey.
For help choosing between private or NHS funded drug and alcohol rehab Surrey, call our team today on 0800 140 4690
The amount of time you spend in drug and alcohol rehab in Surrey will depend largely on how severe your drug or alcohol addiction is, in addition to how well your treatment goes and your other personal circumstances.
You could be in a rehab treatment facility or receiving outpatient rehab treatment for 7 days, a month, several months or even a year.
If and when you choose to speak to us, it is understandable to want to figure out a general time frame for drug and alcohol rehab treatment in Surrey.
However, we don’t recommend obsessing too much over the time you’ll spend being treated at drug and alcohol rehab – it is better to focus on the rehab healing process itself.
In your initial conversations with us, we can go over every rehab option in Surrey and give a rough idea of how long they are likely to take.

The first stage of any alcohol rehab plan is likely to be an alcohol detox.
Before you can engage in any kind of therapy or addiction counselling treatments at rehab, you will need to break down your physical connection with drugs and/or alcohol (when this is a factor).
Rehab will do this by reducing your drug or alcohol use in a safe, controlled manner, helping to minimise alcohol withdrawal symptoms or avoid them entirely.
This is also the point where, if you need to, you’ll start taking specifically prescribed medication, which obviously changes depending on what you’re detoxing from.
When you’re withdrawing from alcohol specifically, you might face some specific alcohol withdrawal symptoms which need rehab support to treat.
Even outside of heavy use, alcohol blocks neurons in your brain, leading to things like slurred speech, poor memory and slowed reflexes.
When you drink alcohol to excess for long periods of time, your brain will adjust to these effects, resulting in alcohol withdrawal symptoms if that intake is reduced.
This is called alcohol dependence – a key early sign of it is increased tolerance.
If your alcohol level suddenly drops and you’ve developed a dependence, your system will then react to these symptoms.
This is why you will go at a slow and steady pace with rehab detox in Surrey, gradually reducing your alcohol use to avoid them.
At the same time, you will also be given specific medications which should help with both withdrawal symptoms and cravings in general.

After detox is completed – or if it is not initially needed – a rehab patient in Surrey will be able to engage in a wide range of therapies.
Here are some therapies you’ll have access to during drug and alcohol rehab in Surrey:
Every addiction journey is unique, so the precise nature of the therapy any one patient experiences at drug and alcohol rehab in Surrey will differ from another.
Some therapies will of course depend on the rehab facilities and resources available, however, most of the widely used talking therapies will be accessible from any location.

Many people going into drug and alcohol rehab in Surrey will also be facing a dual diagnosis.
This could be due to the presence of addiction alongside other mental health issues, underlying physical health issues or the simultaneous presence of multiple addictions.
All good residential and outpatient drug and alcohol rehab services in Surrey will be equipped to deal with these conditions, providing a comprehensive support plan designed to give you the best chance of recovery after rehab.
In fact, many of the most popular treatments used at rehab to address addictions also work to alleviate mental health issues.
This includes cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectal behavioural therapy and holistic therapies amongst other popular drug and alcohol rehab therapies.
Mental health problems are often a big part of addiction in themselves, being both a potential cause and a potential consequence of addiction that any rehab must be prepared to deal with.
Finally, your physical health is also extremely important during addiction treatment at drug and alcohol rehab in Surrey.
You will undergo a full mental and physical assessment before you get started with rehab for a good reason.
If you have any conditions, a rehab will need to know about them before they start treating you.
Some of the mental health conditions that can be treated at drug and alcohol rehab in Surrey include:
You can also find general mental health support outside of the drug and alcohol rehab system in Surrey at Rethink Mental Illness, Papyrus, Young Minds, Samaritans and Mind UK.

Once you finish your initial rehab treatment, it is equally important to work to prevent relapse in the future.
One of the best ways to do that is via an effective relapse prevention plan that you are supported to create before you leave rehab.
There are several important factors to such a plan, with the first being lifestyle and social changes that will be key after drug and alcohol rehab has finished.
During rehab in Surrey, you’ll need to figure out what exactly you need to change in your life moving forward.
That could mean changing your social circle, your job or the place where you live.
Anything that was potentially driving your addiction before that can go will need to go.
No rash decisions need to be made in this regard – it will be something carefully discussed during your main treatment at drug and alcohol rehab in Surrey.
Speaking of general life outside of rehab in Surrey and how it could affect you, any potential triggers and cravings are also vital to be aware of and plan for.
Finally, you also need a detailed plan in case you do relapse.
This should include contact details of anyone you’d want to get in touch with if the worst should happen, as well as an exact plan of action to avoid relapse and the need for further rehab.
If you’ve written down exactly what needs to happen in this scenario, it will be a significant help in minimising the damage caused by relapse and getting you back on track as soon as possible.
Recovery is not a linear path – relapses are sadly a very common occurrence after rehab, but having a robust plan can be essential in helping you to continue your recovery afterwards.
Relapse prevention forms the cornerstone of a wider aftercare programme that all rehab patients will receive, providing ongoing support and helping them to stay sober in the long term.

It helps a lot of people, but residential drug and alcohol rehab in Surrey isn’t for everyone.
Another option is to speak to your GP.
Like a lot of other mental health issues, you should be able to talk it through with them and receive their professional advice for tackling addiction.
There are also other kinds of private rehab available in Surrey beyond simply residential rehab, including outpatient rehab treatment and a separate detox at a dedicated detox clinic.
Multiple mutual support groups also provide key addiciton support for those in Surrey bpth before and after rehab.
Groups like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), [4] Narcotics Anonymous (NA), [5] Cocaine Anonymous (CA) [6] and others provide direct support to addiction sufferers through the famous 12-step programme.
More specialised support can be accessed at Al-Anon Family Meetings in Surrey [7] and through Alateen. [8]
For a more secular approach to addiction support before and after rehab, SMART Recovery [9] is a widely available and successful option.
