We support the majority of our clients to follow an abstinence-based programme using SMART recovery groups and tools to do this.
We offer a range of therapeutic groups; including yoga, reiki, wellbeing sessions, art classes and baking.
At ESRA, anyone can turn up and self-refer. Subject to a short assessment, they can keep coming to ESRA for as long as they like. The lack of a stated end-date helps put clients’ minds at rest because there is no fear of having to leave before they are ready.
At ESRA everyone is working towards an abstinence based recovery.
ESRA clients are supported practically, emotionally, and sometimes even medically. All staff have had first aid training and are also well trained and experienced in safeguarding practice. The safety and well-being of our clients’ mental and physical health is paramount, and we will refer them to other support agencies when necessary.
