About Journey Recovery & Wellness Centre

Journey Recovery & Wellness Centre is a luxurious rehabilitation and wellness center registered with the Department of Health and the Department of Social Development. They offer private treatment for substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders like bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, burnout, eating disorders, and other addictive behaviors or psychiatric concerns. Set in a tranquil garden with a swimming pool, they support and embrace clients with a family-like atmosphere. Clients have access to Wi-Fi, Netflix, live sports, DSTV Premium, and their cellphones, laptops, and other devices.
Journey Recovery runs a non-punitive program, healing with compassion, care, and understanding. 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). Their 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 accepts a maximum of 20 clients, creating a 4:1 ratio of clients to clinical staff. Clients receive individualized care and attention, 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.
Journey Recovery allows cell phones and laptops to support clients who need to maintain work or study commitments during treatment. They are SANHA approved, and all food served is halal. Additionally, Journey Recovery can accommodate other dietary needs, like kosher, vegetarian, vegan, and food allergies. Clients can enjoy Journey Recovery’s outdoor lounge, game room, gym, and art and pottery studio. Bedrooms at Journey Recovery are inviting and spacious, and a cozy lounge area allows for relaxing, socializing, and reading from their self-help library.
