Private Rehab

Private rehabilitation facilities are independent treatment centres designed to provide a conducive environment for recovery, as well as effective, personalised treatment plans for people who want to overcome their addiction. These rehabs run residential programmes from 28 to 90 days that are personalised to the needs of each client. You’ll get 24/7 care from start to finish with an experienced medical and therapy team.

The major benefit of private rehab is the intensity of treatment, which is comprehensive and tailored to fit each patient. Private rehab centres are also medical clinics, where you can receive (if required) a medical detox, treatment for physical and behavioural addictions along with psychiatric support.

Treatment includes a thorough assessment to determine your specific treatment needs; detoxification to remove all harmful toxins from your system; psychotherapy to treat all psychological problems, and 1yr free aftercare to help you maintain abstinence after rehab.

NHS Addiction Treatment Options

NHS treatment is available to all residents of Durham. They provide drug and alcohol support to individuals who would not be able to afford it otherwise. They don’t offer the comfort and specialised care that private rehabs offer, but treatment is effective if you have a desire to achieve your recovery goals. Services are targeted towards low-income earners without medical insurance, individuals living in rural areas, young people and children affected by drug and alcohol abuse

Types Of Counselling

One-to-One This is the most commonly known type of therapy. It involves a counselling session between therapist and patient in the same room. It may be held in an office, coffee shop, garden or any place where the patient feels most comfortable. Face-to-face therapy includes techniques such as motivational interviewing, simple yet effective QnA or unloading where the client releases whats been on there mind causing anxiety, fear, sadness etc… before the therapist interprets this and helps the client to uncover the root issue.

Online This includes all counselling services provided through the internet. It includes sessions via emails, Skype, and support group chat rooms such as SMART Recovery online support groups. It is easy, convenient, and promotes anonymity.

Group Involves a number of people struggling with similar issues coming together to discuss these issues openly, and in the presence of a certified counsellor. Through this process, each participant gains a deeper insight into their addiction, while providing support to others in the group at the same time.

How Can I Get to Durham?

If you’re visiting Durham from London, the fastest way to travel is by railway. Trains leave from King’s Cross Station to Durham Station. The average travel time is 2 hours and 50 minutes. Durham’s centre is compact with small roads, so there is no need to drive in the city, as traffic is heavy during peak hours. Once in the city centre, you can use various landmarks and set them as points of in interest in your navigation, so you know you’re on the right way. These include the Durham Cathedral, Palace Green and Crook Hall.

If you’re visiting from Northumberland, the fastest route is via the A91 with the small town of Chester-le-Street being the first larger region on the way to the county capital. From the south, such as cities in North Yorkshire, you can use the A66 and A19 to arrive in Durham county. Bowes, Gainford, and Shildon are some of the towns closest to the south border of the county.

Arriving by car from the \wedt is a bit tricky because of the North Pennines. The safest route is via A66. At the first large fork, you can take the northern A67 towards Bernards Castle or the southern The St for Boldron and beyond.

Reaching the county by sea, although the border with the North Sea, is not easy because no public ferry lines service the area.

Many buses stop at Durham Bus Station. Arriva covers most of the city centre, and other operators run to nearby towns and counties. If you’re in a hurry, taxis are a quick way to get around the area, but it’s more expensive than public transport. Trains run from Durham to London, Newcastle, Darlington, and other locations on a regular basis. You can check fares and timetables on National Rail.
