Healing Wings

HW is the leading treatment centre in South Africa. We have helped countless individuals find freedom Healing Wings is not about us actually. It’s about YOU.

Healing Wings South Africa comprises of both an adult and a youth centre that provides drug and alcohol rehabilitation for all ages, having established a solid reputation as one of the most successful treatment centres in the hemisphere. Although the focus is primarily on the treatment of addiction, we know that recovery is not as simple as the removal of the substance. Addiction is ultimately a b

ehaviour disorder, and therefore the behaviour needs to change. As such, we also deal with eating disorders, dual diagnosis, self-harm, sexual addictions, behaviour disorders, and gambling addiction. We believe that for healing to occur, it is necessary to address unresolved issues or trauma, as well as the underlying self-defeating thought patterns that perpetuate the addiction. The practical application of cognitive behavioural therapy is crucial – the premise that by changing the way that we think, we can change the way that we act. In addition, we incorporate a number of other treatment philosophies, including dialectical behaviour therapy, person-centred individual counselling, art therapy, equine-assisted activities, reality therapy, focused group sessions and didactic lectures. Throughout treatment, we facilitate the renowned Celebrate Recovery spiritual program as well as the AA/NA 12 Steps, to assist each person in discovering their true identity and in understanding and taking responsibility for their past. Family therapy, external support and conjoint sessions are a core ingredient in ensuring that the whole family is given an opportunity to heal, and in establishing aftercare plans that are integral for reintegration. Healing Wings has continued to operate effectively in the Sudwala region of Mpumalanga since 2009, after a decade of success prior to that while based in Southern Mozambique. The centre has flourished accordingly and is registered with the Department of Social Development, and is fully compliant with the Minimum Norms and Standards. We have teamed up with the Department in providing assistance to those less fortunate, and in developing programs to help combat the rural scourge of drugs. Our school at the Youth Centre, Purpose College, is registered with the Department of Education, and we are proud to announce a 100% Matric pass rate after 4 years as a fully operational correspondence school. As a registered NPO, Healing Wings is active in the local community, and as part of our commitment to help, we endeavour to raise funds to assist in this respect.

Giving people the freedom to Live.

Healing Wings South Africa is more than a rehabilitation and recovery treatment centre, it is for many the beginning of a whole new life. Situated roughly 40 kilometres from Nelspruit, in majestic pine country, the setting is ideal for the work of reforming your way of life. We have both an adult and a youth centre, allowing for treatment of all ages.

Founded in 2000 in Mozambique, the centre has grown and developed significantly over the years. There is a continual spirit of building upon lessons learnt while leveraging the latest developments in the field of recovery.

Our aim is not simply to restore function but to provide the tools necessary for purpose filled living. Through our team of dedicated counsellors and volunteers we are able to guide the broken towards wholeness. The process behind this is multi-faceted, comprising both individual and group therapy across many formats.

Our focus is primarily on the treatment of addiction. However, we know that recovery is not as simple as removal of the substance. Addiction is ultimately a behaviour disorder, requiring behavioural change. As such, we also offer help to those with eating disorders, dual diagnosis, self-harm, sexual addictions, behaviour disorders and gambling addictions.
