About Journey Recovery & Wellness Ballito
Journey Recovery & Wellness Centre Ballito is a luxurious rehabilitation and wellness retreat registered with the departments of health and social development. They provide private treatment of substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders. These include bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, burnout, eating disorders, and other addictive behaviors or psychiatric concerns. Set in a tranquil garden with a sparkling swimming pool, they support and embrace clients in a family-like atmosphere. Clients have access to Wi-Fi, Netflix, live sports, DSTV Premium, and their cellphones, laptops, and other devices.
Journey Recovery & Wellness Centre Ballito runs a non-punitive program, healing with compassion, care, and understanding. Their approach recognizes the importance of building self-esteem and dismantling guilt and shame, which they believe are essential elements in the journey towards sustained recovery. Their treatment program includes supervised medical detox, individual and group therapy, trauma counselling, inner-child work, solution focused therapy, Acu-Detox, families and couple counselling, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
Journey Recovery & Wellness Centre Ballito’s holistic services include yoga, mindfulness, art therapy, pottery, and self-esteem workshops. They additionally provide meaningful tips and personalized strategies for coping with cravings or dealing with thoughts of relapse.
Journey Recovery & Wellness Centre Ballito accepts 10-15 clients, creating a 1:2.5 ratio of clients to clinical staff. Clients receive plentiful individualized care (4 hours of individual therapy weekly), promoting a sense of belonging that Journey Recovery believes is key to effective recovery. After detox and residential treatment, clients can attend sober living and receive daily therapy groups and weekly 1:1 therapy in a substance-free, independent environment. Clients in outpatient attend evening outpatient groups to continue treatment. For clients coming from other countries, South Africa’s Rand exchange rate can make their treatment available for a fraction of the price they may pay back home.
