Our core purpose is to ease the pain of individuals and families by restoring health, hope, spirituality and relationships.
WellCare Ghana Wellness Center’s mission is to transform lives impacted by drug and alcohol addiction through proven, evidence-based, comprehensive and personalized behavioral healthcare.
At WellCare Ghana Wellness Center, we understand that addiction is complex – as complex as the people and families it affects. Physical, psychological, and spiritual dimensions all play a role in substance use disorders. That’s why WellCare Ghana Wellness Center doesn't just treat drug and alcohol problems, but every related issue that patients and their families face.
More than just a rehab center, WellCare Ghana Wellness Center is a leading provider of integrated behavioral health treatment in West Africa.
Drug and alcohol problems are rarely isolated. They go hand-in-hand with co-occurring disorders, like depression, anxiety, trauma-related disorders, and eating disorders, to name just a few. At WellCare Ghana Wellness Center, we address these issues together with substance abuse, because treatment of co-occurring disorders is vital to patients’ success in treatment and long-term sobriety. At WellCare we also can provide services for those individual who speak french or local languages.
We tailor clinically proven addiction treatment plans to each patient and family member.
We blend the latest evidence-based practices from medicine and psychology with historically proven addiction treatment methods like, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, 12-Step integration, motivational interviewing, addiction counseling, and positive peer culture. Our approach also includes health, fitness, and nutrition; education for patients and their families; and spirituality. Every patient has an integrated, multidisciplinary and multilingual team of highly trained and credentialed staff members who are full-time and onsite. The team creates personalized treatment plans that are based on each patient’s individual needs.
Family is integral to our process.
At WellCare Ghana Wellness Center, we believe that the client is the family and the family is the client. This means that we’re equally committed to caring for persons afflicted with the disease of addiction and their families who are affected. We provide family-specific education and treatment options, including:
regular contact with loved ones
a separate counselor for the family while the patient is at WellCare Ghana Wellness Center
education on addiction and behavioral health
an alumni “buddy family” to depend on for support and understanding
intensive treatment programs
We treat the mind, the body, and the spirit.
At WellCare Ghana Wellness Center, we believe that addressing our patients’ core physical, mental, and emotional issues is the only way to reverse the addiction process. Therefore, we take an evidence-based and holistic approach to treatment and wellness.
Mind. Treatment includes individual and group addiction therapy aimed at helping patients develop healthy coping skills and emotional regulation. Therapy also involves education on the complexity of addiction’s effects on the brain, as well as intensive, experiencial workshops where patients gain self-insight through role play and hands-on activities. The goal of therapy is to increase self-awareness and self-confidence while providing tools for recovery.
Body. The physical part of your work at WellCare Ghana Wellness Center will include exercise and fitness; nutritional counseling and proper diet; medication, if necessary; and learning daily living skills to promote a healthier approach to wellness.
Spirit. We use spirituality as a means to connect to self, others, nature, and one’s own faith. Drug and alcohol addiction oftentimes disconnects the family from the individual. We focus on reconnecting and strengthening the spirit that lies within the family. WellCare Ghana Wellness Center utilizes the 12 Steps thru the Recovery Dynamics Curriculum as part of its integrated approach.
