TREATMENT SERVICE
THE SERVICE
Kedesh Rehabilitation Services runs a residential treatment facility at Berkeley in the Illawarra for adults 18 and over with alcohol and other drug dependence. The roughly nine-week program is delivered by psychologists, counsellors, case managers and support workers using cognitive behaviour therapy alongside group work, individual counselling and case management. Clients must be withdrawn before admission. Aftercare groups, aftercare beds and a lower-cost day program are also offered.
Published as not offered here: detox / withdrawal management.
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.

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.
