Clouds House Treatment Programme

Your treatment at Clouds House will take either 4 or 6 weeks, depending on your personal circumstances. During that time you will live in Clouds House with other individuals recovering from addiction problems.

We offer a well-structured treatment programme for you to learn about yourself in relation to addiction, your vulnerability to relapse and how you can maintain recovery.

You will participate in all therapeutic activities that are scheduled throughout the day.

As well as assignments, there are practical tasks which are designed to help you develop better ways of relating to others and dealing with your problems. Living together with others in a therapeutic community working towards the same goal also aids your recovery.

Key elements of the treatment programme:

Group therapy - including men's/women's group

Education through lectures

Workshops

Educational videos

One-to-one relapse prevention counselling

Reading/writing assignments

There are additional creative workshops, such as:

Creative Writing

Art Therapy

Drumming workshops

Dramatherapy

Theatre Workshops
An important part of working together and learning how to live differently is engaging with the everyday tasks that bring routine back into your lives.

Therapeutic Duties around the House are assigned weekly taking into account your current physical ability. For example you may be asked to vacuum clean the shared lounge area or set the meal tables.
