TREATMENT SERVICE
THE SERVICE
The Haymarket Foundation is a Sydney charity founded in 1974 that works with adults over 18 experiencing homelessness. Its alcohol and other drug services run from Level 4, 99 Forbes Street, Woolloomooloo and include a drug and alcohol counselling and psychology service delivered by a clinical psychologist, offering individual and group psychotherapy, relapse prevention, assessment and referral. It also runs a four-bed HIV/AOD stabilisation unit inside its 24-bed crisis accommodation centre at Newtown.

Ask the admissions team how withdrawal would be handled and how a transfer into treatment works.
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.

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.
