Admission

The admissions process at Serenity House is simple and supportive. Our team is here to guide you every step of the way, ensuring a smooth and welcoming transition into our recovery community.

Needs Assessment

When you reach out for help, a specialist from our clinical team will conduct a confidential assessment to determine the best treatment options based on your needs. You'll then be paired with a counselor who will support you throughout your journey at Serenity House.

Your Treatment Plan

In collaboration with the clinical team, your counselor will create a personalised recovery plan. This will serve as the road map for your recovery, outlining the goals, strategies, and support systems that will guide you through every step of your journey toward lasting sobriety.

What Next?

Aftercare Treatment

Family Support Group

Addiction can leave individuals feeling isolated, unable to connect with loved ones, while their actions deeply affect those around them. Active addiction often reduces empathy, making it harder to understand the pain caused to family and friends.

As a trusted drug rehab in Cape Town, Serenity House believes true healing includes the whole family. While many focus on "fixing" the addict, we recognise that family members also experience trauma and need support on their own healing journey.

Through our Family Support Group, Serenity House provides guidance, education, and practical tools to help families rebuild trust and reconnect. Weekly online sessions foster open communication and long-term recovery for everyone affected.
