Private alcohol and drug rehab near Norfolk
- Evidence-based addiction treatment
- Highly qualified team
- Free addiction assessment
If you’re looking for professional addiction support near Norfolk, Priory offers expert rehab services designed to help you regain control of your life. Addiction is a pressing concern in the region, with approximately 44,000 adults aged 16-59 estimated to use drugs and 190,000 adults drinking more than the recommended weekly limit, according to the Norfolk Drug and Alcohol Partnership (source). Alarmingly, only half of those needing treatment for opiate or crack cocaine use and just one in five alcohol-dependent individuals access specialist support.
Health outcomes linked to substance misuse are worse in Norfolk’s more deprived areas, with co-existing mental health conditions and multiple substance misuse being common challenges. Alcohol-specific hospital admissions are increasing in areas such as Norwich and King’s Lynn, contributing to higher-than-average rates of alcohol-related mortality (source). These statistics highlight the urgent need for compassionate, evidence-based care in the region.
Our nearby Priory Hospital Chelmsford provides a peaceful and supportive environment for recovery, specialising in the treatment of alcohol, drug, and behavioural addictions. We offer tailored programmes to meet your unique needs, with options including inpatient care, day programmes, outpatient support, and online therapy.
With a dedicated team of addiction specialists and evidence-based therapies, Priory is here to guide you every step of the way. Whether you’re seeking medically assisted detox, therapy sessions, or long-term aftercare, our services provide the tools and support you need to build a healthier, brighter future.
At Priory, our addiction treatment specialists understand the profound impact that addiction can have on your mental and physical health. We provide high-quality care for a wide range of substance and behavioural addictions, including alcohol, drugs, gambling, sex, internet, pornography, and shopping addictions.
Inpatient, or residential, treatment involves staying at a Priory hospital throughout your treatment programme, providing 24-hour care, structure, and a supportive environment away from daily triggers. Most inpatient programmes last 28 days and include therapeutic approaches such as medically assisted detoxification (detox) to ensure safe and effective recovery. We also offer flexible treatment plans of 7, 14, or 21 days to accommodate individual needs.
Day care offers a part-time approach to recovery, with structured therapy delivered through full or half-day sessions at a Priory site. This option is ideal for individuals transitioning from inpatient care or seeking ongoing support to maintain long-term recovery and reduce the risk of relapse.
Outpatient treatment provides regular therapy sessions, typically lasting an hour, at a Priory site. Flexible evening and weekend appointments make it easier to fit therapy around work or personal commitments. This option is best suited for those who need less intensive support and are not actively using addictive substances, as detox is not included.
Online therapy allows you to connect with accredited therapists through secure video calls, providing professional support from the comfort and privacy of your home. With evening and weekend appointments available, online therapy offers a convenient and effective alternative to in-person sessions, tailored to your unique recovery needs.
Our 28-day residential addiction treatment programme includes:
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.
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.
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.
