Providing a range of support for children, individuals and families impacted by a loved one’s alcohol or drug use, problem gambling, and associated mental health challenges.
Family Recovery provides support to individuals impacted by a loved one's dependency concerns, regardless of whether or not the person using alcohol, drugs or problem gambling seeks help.
We recognise the significant impact alcohol, drugs and gambling can have on individual family members and the family as a system. Therefore, our range of group programs, education, and individual counselling can provide you with the support you need.
Who can we support?
Family Recovery provides support to a range of individuals impacted by their loved one's dependency concerns, including:
- Partners/spouses
- Siblings
- Children (from 5-18 years) whose parents or siblings have a drug, alcohol or gambling dependency
- Parents whose adolescent or adult children are using alcohol, drugs or experiencing mental health concerns
- Adults who grew up in a family affected by alcohol or drug use
- Adolescents who are using alcohol and drugs or who have problem gambling behaviours.
