Addiction treatment near Durham

At Priory, our addiction treatment specialists recognise that all forms of addiction can have a negative impact on your mental and physical health. We deliver high-quality treatment for a wide range of substance and behavioural addictions, including alcohol, drugs, gambling, sex, internet, porn and shopping addictions.

Inpatient treatment

Inpatient, or residential, treatment involves staying in hospital throughout your treatment programme, providing 24-hour care, structure, and a break from everyday triggers. Addiction inpatients typically undergo a 28-day stay, incorporating therapeutic approaches like medically assisted detoxification (detox) to support recovery effectively, but there are also options for 7-day, 14-day and 21-day treatment plans.

Day care

Day care offers structured therapy on a part-time basis, with full or half-day sessions at a Priory site. It suits those who no longer require 24-hour care but benefit from ongoing support after detox, helping to maintain long-term recovery and prevent relapse.

Outpatient treatment

Outpatient treatment provides weekly therapy sessions, usually lasting an hour, at a Priory site. Flexible evening and weekend options allow therapy to fit around work or personal commitments. It is ideal for those needing less intensive support and not actively using addictive substances, as detox is not included.

Online therapy

Online therapy connects you with accredited therapists through secure video calls, enabling you to access professional support from any private location. Evening and weekend appointments ensure convenience, offering evidence-based techniques tailored to your needs, just as effective as in-person sessions.

Priory addiction treatment pathway

Addiction treatment pathway

Our 28-day residential addiction treatment programme includes:

  • Free, no obligation addiction assessment
  • 7-10 day medically assisted detoxification for drug and alcohol addictions, if this is required
  • 1:1 therapy and group therapy
  • Access to local 12-step support groups
  • Free aftercare for 12 months following treatment
  • Free family support for 12 months following treatment

All therapy delivered as part of Priory’s addiction treatment programme is consultant-led, with input from our expert team of addiction therapists and support staff. Addiction therapy sessions help you to explore the underlying causes for your addiction, understand the triggers for your addictive behaviours and learn to manage your cravings and urges. We can also provide support for co-occurring mental health problems, including depression, anxiety, anger management issues and bereavement.

Medically assisted detoxification

If you are struggling with an alcohol or drug addiction, we offer a medically assisted detoxification process for your addiction, which takes place over the first 7 to 10 days of your stay. 

Detox takes place on an inpatient basis, where medical professionals can offer round-the-clock care, helping you to manage your challenging withdrawal symptoms. We can also use carefully controlled medication to limit your withdrawal symptoms and to stabilise your physical health.

Following detox, you will be physically stable and ready to commence intensive addiction therapy. Here, you can fully focus on long-term recovery from addiction, engaging in therapy, support groups, and other forms of treatment to work towards achieving lasting results.

Aftercare

At Priory, we're committed to your ongoing recovery, which is why we offer free aftercare for 12 months to everyone who completes our 28-day addiction treatment programme.

During aftercare, we provide access to a range of resources and ongoing networking support to aid your recovery and reduce the risk of relapse. Our experts will create a detailed continuing care plan tailored to your needs, ensuring you are equipped to manage life successfully after completing intensive treatment.
