Alcohol Rehab in Essex

At Step by Step Recovery, we are proud to say that each of our clients receives a treatment plan specifically tailored to their needs. Our team works hard to identify and evaluate any contributing factors that may have contributed to their alcohol addiction. We work with clients to overcome these hurdles, providing the support and tools needed for a successful journey to recovery.

In addition to traditional addiction treatment methods, we offer a range of holistic therapies. Addiction is a complex disease, and we are passionate that treatment should focus on all aspects of a person, including the mind, body and spirit.

The combination of therapies that we offer are adapted specifically to meet the individual needs of our clients. Our holistic treatments include:
