Who it’s for
This is for you if you’re
Over eight or twelve weeks, Kindly Rehab offers the structure and closer contact that support real change in how you live, with help on hand when it matters most. It is suitable for people struggling with addiction, substance misuse, gambling, gaming, compulsive sexual behaviour or an eating disorder, as well as burnout, existential crisis and self-loss, including where these intersect with ADHD and autism.
This intensive programme is open to adults aged 18 and over who are medically stable, and suitability is discussed during your initial assessment. Where substance use or an eating disorder is involved, your GP or medical team will need to be involved in your care alongside the programme, and where inpatient care or medically assisted withdrawal is needed first, you will be signposted to it.
Testimonials
What clients say
-
"I had just come out of rehab, and although I had good foundations, I knew that the harder work would only start once I got home and was back to the challenges of real life… Working with Steph has been the best investment I've made in my life since rehab."
-
"When I started working with Stephanie, my life was falling apart due to behavioural addictions… I have come to understand my addictive behaviours in a whole new light and have also built new, healthier habits. It has been completely life-changing."
The Approach
You may come to Kindly Rehab when the way you have been living has stopped working, whether that surfaces as an addiction, a compulsive behaviour, an eating disorder, burnout, an existential crisis or a sense of self-loss. Together, we explore what lies beneath it: how you came to be here, how your old ways of living have served you, and what they have cost. Often, this marks a crossroads, a point at which the old must be dismantled so that something new can be imagined in its place.
From there, with courage and creativity, we begin again, learning to live in light of everything that has come before. Over time, we cultivate a different way of being in the world, one that can meet pain, adversity, setbacks and the whole spectrum of human experience without falling back on harmful patterns.
"Addiction, whatever its form, has always been a desperate search, on a false and hopeless path, for the fulfilment of human freedom."
Medard Boss, existential psychiatrist
