What Alcohol Rehab Services Does Help4Addiction Offer?

7-Day Alcohol Rehab From £2,000

A 7-day treatment is designed to help with mild addictions and the time you spend at the rehab centre will depend on how well your recovery is going and the severity of your addiction.

Your day will be spent taking part in alcohol counselling, therapy sessions, detox programmes and activities.

You will have the choice of inpatient treatment where you stay at the facility during the 7 days or outpatient where you attend the centre every day but continue to sleep at home. 

14-Day Alcohol Rehab From £4,000 

For slightly longer treatment, you can consider a 14 day rehab at a clinic near you. There are options to do your alcohol detox at home or stay in a clinic for the 14-day period or be an outpatient and spend the night at home. The length of your stay will depend on the progress you are making and the severity of your addiction.

28-Day Alcohol Rehab From £8,000

A 28-day rehab or 1 month alcohol treatment allows you to have a full month to stay at a treatment clinic and this price may be higher or lower depending on the quality of accommodation you are looking for.

The treatment will include alcohol counselling, detox, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), activities and support from trained professionals in a distraction-free environment.

90-Day Alcohol Rehab

For a 90-day or 3 month rehab, this can give the patient a little longer to fully recovery. This could be a combination of inpatient and outpatient and may start initially as a 7 day or 28 day treatment which gets extended. Some patients opt to be close to home and some prefer to be away from their regular routine.

Inpatient and Outpatient Rehab 

Inpatient and outpatient rehab treatment for alcoholics gives you the choice over whether you stay at the rehabilitation clinic or not overnight. 

Staying at the centre or at home will impact the cost of treatment, but some patients prefer to immerse themselves by staying over and do not want to return to their everyday surroundings which might cause them to relapse. 

If you are an outpatient, you will need to travel to the centre when you are scheduled for sessions, and you will still be living at home. 

When browsing for alcohol rehab centres, you may have stumbled across the term ‘quasi-residential’. This is a combination of both outpatient and inpatient treatment – you live in one residency but travel to other locations to receive different rehab treatments (e.g behavioural therapy or counselling with a psychiatrist).

Quasi-residential alcohol addiction treatment can be an effective option as it removes you from your previous environment. This can help to prevent relapse, but give you a higher sense of freedom than being in a residential rehab treatment centre.

Private alcohol rehab is generally offered on a residential basis, which can be beneficial to those with severe alcohol withdrawal symptoms or alcohol withdrawal syndrome.

A private rehab treatment programme will often involve holistic therapies such as art therapy or sports therapy, as well as medical assistance. Treating alcoholism isn’t an easy process, but is often easier when medical assistance is involved.

Online Alcohol Rehab At Home From £2,795 Per Month 

Online alcohol rehab is available to patients and can be more cost-effective for some.

It includes:

  • An initial assessment with our addiction experts
  • 28 x structured 90-minute virtual group therapy sessions
  • 3 x 1 hour one-to-one psychotherapy sessions
  • Access to a secure peer support app
  • Ongoing telephone support
  • Free weekly aftercare sessions for a year following treatment

Ongoing Support/ Aftercare 

At Help4Addiction, we don’t believe in just waving goodbye as you exit the clinic. This is why we work with quality addiction treatment centres that offer secondary treatment (also known as aftercare) – to avoid you going into relapse.

How Much Do Alcohol Rehab Centres and Treatments Cost?

Alcohol addiction treatment at a private clinic starts from around £2,000 per week or £8,000 per month. The price of rehab centres can vary depending on the location, the level of treatment and quality of the accommodation. Certain luxury rehab clinics in London or elsewhere in the UK can start from £10,000 per week.

There are ways to reduce the cost of alcohol addiction treatment by opting for outpatient rather than inpatient treatment or doing an alcohol detox online or from home. 

Importantly, addiction patients can save a sum of money by not having to purchase alcohol during the period of their treatment, which can be overlooked.

If you need help with financing your treatment, there are payment plans and options to spread repayments over time. See our page on help paying for addiction treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions 

 

How soon can I visit a clinic or join a detox programme? 

Rehab clinics are available at short notice and it is common to be able to start a programme almost immediately. Online and home treatments are available on demand.

 

How do I pay for alcohol rehab? 

Alcoholic rehab treatment is usually self-paid but many clinics we work with at Help4Addiction are covered by private medical insurance.

 

Can I get help treating alcohol addiction on the NHS? 

Yes, you can get treatment for alcohol addiction on the NHS by visiting your GP and being referred to a specialist. There are also support groups for free such as Local Alcohol Services and Community Alcohol Teams such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).

 

How quickly does rehab help you recover? 

Your recovery may depend on the severity of your addiction and how well you take to the treatment plans. The importance of aftercare and avoiding relapse is key to maintaining sobriety.

Resources

You may be an alcoholic if you are consuming excessive amounts of alcohol despite it being harmful to your physical and mental health and negatively impacting those around you.

The UK’s government guidelines for alcohol intake are less than 14 units per week to reduce the risk of affecting your health. A unit equates to around 10ml of pure alcohol, which is roughly the same as a shot of spirit (e.g vodka), or a half-pint of 3.6% beer/cider/ lager.

If you find that you have a dependency on alcohol to function in the day or to get out of bed in the morning, you may benefit from private treatment to help with alcohol addiction.

Alcohol addiction is a recognised physical illness and mental illness. It is characterised by the continual consumption of alcohol despite the physical and mental damage it may cause, and despite the negative consequences it can have on your life overall.

Alcohol is a chemical that changes the complex functions of your brain – which means that when you drink alcohol, it triggers the release of certain ‘feel good’ chemicals in your brain (e.g dopamine and serotonin).

This can make you feel good, positive, and less sensitive to pain – and can lead to you drinking alcohol, again and again, to keep getting the positive feelings. However, prolonged and excessive alcohol consumption can affect the neurotransmitters in your brain.

 

Alcohol dependence typically refers to a physical dependence on alcohol, which includes the physical withdrawal symptoms from alcohol. Alcohol addiction, on the other hand, often refers to the behaviours associated with alcohol use.

These changes in behaviour are caused by biochemical changes within the brain that occur after continuous alcohol consumption. When you are addicted to alcohol, alcohol will often become your main priority.

Alcohol dependence is typically characterised by craving alcohol as well as having an increased tolerance to alcohol. Alcohol dependence has been associated with many harmful physical and mental consequences, such as liver disease or depression.

If you leave your addiction to worsen and don’t get help (or help yourself), there is always the risk of dying from alcohol-specific causes. In 2020, there were 8,974 deaths registered in the UK from alcohol-specific causes, which is 18.6% more than the previous year.

One of the main causes of these deaths was alcoholic liver disease, which made up 77.8% of alcohol-specific deaths in 2020. The next highest cause was mental and behavioural disorders due to alcohol, which made up 12.1% of these deaths.

If you drink alcohol regularly and in large amounts, you may experience severe withdrawal symptoms if you stop drinking – even if you don’t think that you have a problem with alcohol.

If you were to suddenly stop drinking, your body will still be producing the same amount of GABA and glutamate as when you were drinking – leading to you feeling shaky, anxious, hyper, and restless.

Drinking too much alcohol can be dangerous – and drinking an excessive amount of alcohol in a short amount of time can lead to an alcohol overdose, also known as alcohol poisoning.

Alcohol overdose or alcohol poisoning may occur if the alcohol levels in your bloodstream are too high, as this can affect certain areas of your brain that control key life-supporting functions – for example, heart rate, breathing, and temperature control.
