We are a recognised as a centre of excellence in the provision of drug treatment that supports and enhances the well-being and health of individuals and the communities we are part of.  We aspire to be the leading provider of drug treatment services in the Eastern region and remain at the forefront of innovation and excellence in treating drug addiction today and into the future.

Iceni deliver a range of interventions and therapies to break the cycle of addiction. Whereas many drug treatment centres use drug substitutes (e.g. methadone) to break the addiction cycle, which often maintains psychological dependence, Iceni breaks down its service into three parts and seeks to provide treatment as follows:

1. Physiological interventions (e.g. acupuncture, aromatherapy, reflexology, gym and fitness)

2. Emotional and psychological interventions (counselling, anger management, addiction awareness, aftercare etc)

3. Social and Economic Support (training, employment, benefits, accommodation, etc)

Our approach to treatment for addiction concentrates on the interaction between body and mind; we also take into account a person's current status within society. We call this approach 'holistic' because we believe in addressing the wide range of issues that may be contributing to the need to use susbstances.

Addiction is often underpinned by other issues that may have contributed to the use of substances in the first place.  These issues need to be addressed and reviewed throughout the recovery process.

This service is available for those that have completed the Phase Three element of treatment or those who have received treatment in the past at either Iceni or for example Prison, Residential Rehab etc. Interventions in this phase will include aspects of support rather than ‘therapy’ including brief solution focused work, relapse prevention, acupuncture and mutual support groups. Aftercare provides an environment where individuals can explore obstacles, and day to day issues that confront them in their attempts to move on.
