THE SERVICE
Barwon Therapeutic Community is Windana's 30-bed residential rehabilitation site at Corio, about 10km from central Geelong. It takes adults aged 18 and over who have already completed a withdrawal program, and runs a three-month phased therapeutic community program that can be extended. Days combine therapeutic and educational groups, case management, art and writing, naturopathy and nutrition, exercise and rostered work groups, followed by an aftercare phase.
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.

AFTER THE STAY
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.
