Help Me Stop

The UK’s number 1 alternative to residential addiction treatment Help Me Stop is private, intensive drug and alcohol rehabilitation day programme. We deliver many of the same services that you could expect to receive in a residential treatment setting. This includes group and individual therapy, workshops and written assignments as well as a thorough introduction to the 12-step model of recovery. Help Me Stop is an abstinence-based service. We follow the principle that addiction is an illness, not a moral failing. This illness may be kept in remission if abstinence is adhered to. Our main aim is to show clients that abstinence is achievable and that there is a positive and fulfilling life after active addiction. Help Me Stop endorses and utilises the 12-step model of recovery. This programme was established in the USA and has helped millions of people worldwide access a more fulfilling life. Evidence suggests that when the 12-step approach is delivered alongside a therapeutic programme, the roots of addiction can be addressed, and sustainable recovery is achieved. Addiction thrives on isolation which is why we do the vast majority of our work in group settings. We provide a positive recovery focussed community to engage with. This provides clients with a sense of belonging a belief that change is possible with the support of others in a similar situation. Unlike residential treatment, Help Me Stop is a day programme which means all clients return home to their communities after groups have finished. We provide clients with the tools and strategies to cope with the stresses and triggers that are encountered in day to day life as well as dealing with unresolved issues and underlying conditions such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and self-esteem issues. This makes the experience genuine and increases the chances of long-term recovery significantly. Help Me Stop offer rehab in the real world and as such offers morning, afternoon and evening streams of our programme both face to face and online; meeting the needs of individuals in the UK and abroad who can’t travel into our centre. Help Me Stop is committed to ensuring the best addiction treatment is available to the many people that need it an affordable price
