Individualised Addiction Care
Your story is unique and your recovery should be too. Every resident receives a tailored treatment plan with one-on-one therapy, trauma work, relapse prevention and personal growth goals.
Trauma-informed, non-clinical setting
We recognise that for many with addiction, childhood trauma and mental health challenges can often be a barrier to recovery. We’ve replaced sterile, clinical settings with warmth, natural light, and comfort. Abbington House feels more like a home than a hospital, something our London clients often say helps them feel at ease sooner.
Medically Assisted Drug and Alcohol Detox
Whether you’re detoxing from alcohol or drugs including cocaine, benzodiazepines, or opiates, our team provides 24/7 supervision in a safe and calm setting, using evidence-based guidelines for withdrawal management.
Family Therapy
Rebuilding trust with loved ones is often a key part of recovery. Our therapists work with families to unpack dynamics, improve communication, and foster long-term healing. At Abbington House, we know how important the family unit is in the recovery journey.
Nutritional Chef
Our in-house chef prepares fresh, nourishing meals every day. For clients recovering from long-term alcohol or drug use, nutrition plays a huge role in mood, focus and energy.
Safe Accommodation
Every room is private, clean, and thoughtfully designed to help you feel relaxed and safe. Communal areas are welcoming and peaceful, no fluorescent lights or hospital corridors here.
Aftercare & Alumni
London-based aftercare options are available through our alumni network. Whether you live in Hackney or Harrow, you’ll have access to support that fits your local reality. Our team will begin building your aftercare plan early, ensuring you have the tools and confidence to continue your recovery journey.
