TWIN RIVERS REHAB INTERNATIONAL
SPECIALISING IN THE TREATMENT OF ADDICTION & MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS
Twin Rivers has developed programmes that really work in addressing substance abuse and mental health disorders. South Africa might seem to be a long way from home, but in comparison it is a small price to pay!
Twin Rivers Rehab is a premier, International, licensed treatment centre that has been assisting people with addiction and mental health disorders since 2011 and recognised as the best option for those seeking, affordable, residential treatment outside of Europe.
Twin Rivers has developed an uncluttered, more traditional based program that genuinely focusses on client individuality. Located a few minutes away from the beach, Twin Rivers is nestled in a quiet residential area in Plettenberg Bay, The Garden Route, South Africa.
David has captured the essence of his own positive rehab experience and merged it into the uniqueness that Twin Rivers affords all their clients today.
Regular individual counselling sessions and group therapy is very much at the core of the program infused with TRE (Trauma Release Exercises) which compliments the ‘talk’ therapy. The daily program is influenced by client feedback in their daily diaries ensuring that the therapeutic communities needs are addressed as they arise.
Each morning starts with a walk to the beach which has incredible views of the Tsitsikamma and outeniqua mountain ranges to the East and Robberg Peninsula to the West. There are frequent visits to the local gymnasium and pool and clients enjoy the excursions such as deep-sea fishing or going to the Elephant Sanctuary.
