Are you currently struggling in the real world and don’t feel like another spell in primary care is the right option? The Next Step, located in beautiful Chiang Mai, Thailand could be your solution. The Next Step is a sober living environment nestled in a leafy, tranquil setting which has become lovingly known to clients and staff alike as the “The Village”. Facilities include a swimming pool, gymnasium, games room, martial arts area and meditation room among others. Our clients view the village as being home, and the people that live or work here as being family. In primary treatment you will have learnt about the illness along with extremely useful tools in combating it, such as CBT, effective boundary setting, relapse prevention work, mindfulness and meditation among others. This is all done in a highly structured and controlled environment with minimal triggers and little exposure to many of the problems and difficulties left behind in the real world, the outside world. Yes, within the village we provide a drug and alcohol free environment, but the walls around our village are not there to keep you in. We are not there to control your life and every waking moment, but to assist and support you on your journey forward into recovery. Simply put, we don’t just talk about the tools, we teach you how to USE these tools. Understandably, when leaving rehab, many are quite daunted by the task ahead and feel utterly unprepared. Unfortunately, statistics show that in the short period of time after leaving rehab there is a high risk possibility of a relapse. Our community is small and select. With just fourteen rooms available, our clients are guaranteed a more personalised approach than some larger facilities provide but at affordable rates. At The Next Step, qualified, dedicated professional staff address your individual treatment needs and together with the constant support of your peers, the common goal of long term sobriety suddenly seems achievable. If your recovery has recently slipped or you are starting to struggle in the outside world, it is not too late. Perhaps you are leaving rehab soon and want to give yourself the very best opportunity in attaining successful recovery: meaningful recovery. For what would be a fraction of the cost of another lengthy stay in primary care, contact us today to discuss your next step.
