Recovery Programmes

No two people experience addiction the same way — and no two recovery journeys should look alike. At Step Away, we offer carefully structured treatment programmes that support clients at different stages of recovery, whether you're just beginning, stabilising, or rebuilding your life.

We treat adults over the age of 18, and we’re one of the few rehabilitation centres in Port Elizabeth offering dedicated care for both men and women. Our facility is fully licensed by the Department of Health and Social Development, and all programmes are delivered by a multidisciplinary team of medical and therapeutic professionals.

Whether you need intensive residential support or a flexible outpatient solution, every programme is guided by the same principle: targeted, personalised treatment that addresses both the addiction and its underlying causes.

Our Addiction Recovery Programmes

Inpatient Treatment

A full-time, residential recovery programme designed for individuals who need consistent support in a structured, professionally supervised environment. Inpatient care removes you from daily triggers and gives you the space to stabilise, reflect, and begin building the foundations of long-term recovery.

Outpatient Treatment

Outpatient care provides support for those who are stable enough to live at home but still benefit from structured therapy and accountability. It’s an ideal option for individuals returning to work or study, or for those stepping down from residential treatment.

21-Day Recovery Programme

This intensive short-term inpatient programme is designed for individuals who need focused intervention and plan to return to daily responsibilities after three weeks. The 21-day programme is structured, outcome-driven, and often used as a foundation for continued recovery or follow-up care.

Aftercare Support

Recovery continues after residential treatment and our aftercare programme offers structured, ongoing support to safeguard the progress you’ve made. You’ll access follow-up counselling, peer support groups, and relapse-prevention strategies designed to help you integrate healthy habits into daily life.

Our aftercare services are tailored to your individual needs, whether you’re returning home, transitioning to outpatient care, or preparing for independent recovery. With regular check-ins and a reliable support network, you won’t face early recovery challenges alone.

Expert, Multidisciplinary Support

All treatment at Step Away is delivered by a clinical team that includes a psychiatrist, medical doctor, psychologist, occupational therapist, nursing staff, and registered counsellors. Our programmes are built on evidence-based methods and tailored to support physical, psychological, and emotional recovery — not just short-term sobriety.
