What is a cannabis rehab centre?
A cannabis rehab centre is a place where people can overcome their dependency on cannabis. Before admission, our team will assess you to decide what type of rehab treatment you need. Once there, you will get the opportunity to seek physical and mental healing in a calm and secure environment. For the first week, you will undergo a physical detox from cannabis, and professional healthcare workers will be able to offer you physical and mental support through this. In tandem with this, rehab for cannabis will provide numerous forms of talking and creative therapies to ensure you get the tools you need to recover permanently.

Cannabis rehab can address the root cause
One-to-one therapy with a professional psychologist may help you understand the root cause of your cannabis abuse. It may transpire that you have become addicted to marijuana to cope with trauma. This trauma can be anything such as a painful breakup, feelings of depression or grief. Together with a therapist, you can understand yourself on a deeper level and find healthier coping mechanisms to handle unpleasant feelings.
We take cannabis recovery one step at a time
We know addiction can be heart-shattering, and it may feel difficult to break out of the downward spiral you may have found yourself in. However, the 12-step therapy can work as a rope which you can hold to pull yourself out from the depths of cannabis cravings; each step will focus on different aspects of overcoming substance dependence, and you can take your time to process them all without being overwhelmed.
You are not going through it alone
Group therapy allows you to meet others who have suffered from mental health issues and reliance on cannabis, so they understand how traumatic it can be. Knowing you aren’t going through it alone can offer you hope, and listening to others’ opinions may give you a fresh perspective.
It’s best to have an open mind
It’s key to note that each person has their own individual reasons that have caused them to depend on cannabis. Therefore, each person will have a specific approach to recovery. Our therapists will work with each patient to develop the best therapy programme for you. However, UKAT’s advice is to try everything with an open mind, allow yourself to relinquish any expectations or prior judgments, and try every treatment option presented to you. You may not enjoy them all, but there will be at least one that resonates with you, and this could be the very thing that propels you towards lifelong recovery.
