Every plan is individual. Warranty of privacy: first enquiry is free and confidential; dignity and discretion are stated as non-negotiable from first contact through programme completion. --- ## Alcohol rehabilitation Source: https://mezitouch.co.za/alcohol/ Alcohol use disorder is treated as a medical condition. Dual-diagnosis care addresses co-occurring anxiety, depression, PTSD, and trauma at the same time as the drinking, not sequentially. On arrival: clinical assessment, structured daily programme, 24/7 medical and therapeutic support in a private residential setting. **Clinical detox (where indicated):** 24/7 medical supervision; pharmacological support, hydration, and comfort protocols. Alcohol withdrawal can include seizures; medically supervised detox is strongly recommended for moderate to severe dependency. **Therapies named on the page:** Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT); integrative 12-step; one-to-one counselling (trauma, family dynamics, shame, self-worth); nutritional support, sleep regulation, stress management; family communication; structured relapse-prevention planning. --- ## Drug rehabilitation Source: https://mezitouch.co.za/drug/ Covers prescription medication, illicit substances, and stimulants. Same dual-diagnosis and medically supervised detox model as alcohol, with CBT, 12-step integration, individual counselling, and aftercare. Shame and stigma are acknowledged as barriers to help; treatment is presented as medical care, not moral failure. --- ## Gambling addiction Source: https://mezitouch.co.za/gambling/ Gambling disorder is treated as a recognised behavioural addiction (finances, relationships, and mental health). Dual diagnosis commonly includes depression, anxiety, ADHD, or trauma. Programme elements include psychological assessment, CBT, motivational interviewing, removal from daily triggers in residential care, financial-recovery support, and aftercare. --- ## Behavioural addiction Source: https://mezitouch.co.za/behavioural/ Gaming, internet, and other compulsive behaviours. Same dual-diagnosis residential model: assessment, CBT, life-skills and emotional-regulation support, family communication, and a private environment away from triggers. --- ## Values (five restorative pillars) Source: https://mezitouch.co.za/our-values-2/ 1.
