THE SERVICE
Two non-residential day rehabilitation programs run by Uniting Vic.Tas for adults who have already completed withdrawal. Catalyst runs five to six weeks, Monday to Friday 10am to 3pm, at Coburg, Preston and Narre Warren in Victoria and North Hobart in Tasmania, using cognitive behavioural and motivational enhancement therapy alongside group work, nutrition, mental health and mindfulness sessions, with peer support during and after. Torque is a six-week version at Coburg for people involved in the justice system. The program is free.
Published as not offered here: residential rehabilitation, detox / withdrawal management.
Ask the admissions team how withdrawal would be handled and how a transfer into treatment works.
No map — this service has not published a location precise enough to place on one.
CARE & DAILY LIFE
Ask about staff qualifications, medication policy, accessibility and any specific support needs before you decide. Almost no service in this directory publishes what it will and will not admit.
COST
We hold what this service publishes, and we do not put a price at the top of a profile for the public to sort on. The cheapest service on a page is rarely the right one for a particular person, and a quote that comes with the conversation about what is included is worth more than a band. Professional referrers see the figures in their workspace.
State funded
ONGOING SUPPORT
Details of ongoing support are not published here. Ask the service what support is available when your treatment ends.
PROFESSIONAL ENDORSEMENTS
Endorsements come from registered professionals — psychologists, addiction GPs, lawyers, social workers — who have referred someone here and put their name to what happened. None yet does not mean poor ones: it means nobody has written one.
