Support at every stage of your recovery
There are four phases to our residential recovery program:
1. Orientation
This is the beginning of the recovery program, where you will have an opportunity to get acquainted with the routine and expectations. This phase usually includes medical, psychological, and psycho-social assessments, with a focus on nutrition, health, and well-being. Once you have adjusted well and embraced the program, you will be invited to the next phase.

Testimonial
“Creating a positive routine for myself which promotes increased self-esteem and confidence is one main area of change. Becoming more assertive in my methods of communication is another primary area of change I have gained during my time in Banyan House. My ability to control and be aware of my way of thinking though tools such as cognitive behavioural therapy is more significant change in my time here."

He has secured an accommodation in the city. “I have sorted to rebuild relationships with my partner and family. I have learned how to regulate my emotions in a calm and healthy manner. I have remained focused on my recovery and the program. I have remained punctual and held good respect for other peers and staff and tried to integrate the 5 pillars into my daily routine as much as possible."

“I came from prison and did not want to be here. But I got a lot out of my time. I have participated in the program and put in a 110% and it has helped me learned a lot about myself. It has given me my confidence back. It helped me understand what my triggers are. I have tried to be a good role model for another resident and stay positive. I have had a couple of setbacks and overcome them. But I think it is time to start putting my life back together. I will try go to AA/NA, meetings for support and get any help that I can. I will go back to work. Keep busy so I do not relapse. My main goal in life is to be the best dad I can before my son. For the new residents I know it is not easy to be here but give it time. Put in a 110%and don’t give up. Stay positive. Do the program, you will see it works. Good luck with everything in the future. I will you all the best and thanks to all the staff, for all the support you have given me and helping me with my recovery.”

Hi guys. I didn't know any other way to contact you to just scream out a massive thank you. I've been clean 5 years since leaving Banyan house is 2018... I never touched meth again and I'm forever grateful for the hard work the staff put in and the hard work that I put in.
