28-Day Outpatient Recovery Programme

An outpatient path to recovery

The 28-day outpatient addiction programme is ideal for clients who cannot go to rehab due to work or family commitments. It provides clients with connection, correction, and direction — supporting people who are seeking to make healthy and responsible life choices.

The programme essentially addresses the client's bottom-line behaviours and vital areas, including relapse prevention, SMART goal setting, trigger management, and the development of a recovery-focused culture. It emphasises stress management, communication, work-life balance, spiritual principles, core values, mindfulness, self-care, and healthy activities and relationships.

How the programme works

The 28-day programme consists of two 1-hour sessions or one 2-hour session per week, delivered through evidence-based modalities at our office in Causeway Bay or via Zoom for clients who are not based in Hong Kong. There is one follow-up aftercare session after the 28-day programme — nine sessions in total.

What's included

• Eight sessions plus one aftercare follow-up session
• Relapse prevention & SMART goal setting
• Trigger management & recovery culture development
• Stress management & effective communication

Evidence-based modalities

Sessions draw from four evidence-based approaches, integrated based on each client's needs:

• Motivational Interviewing (MI) — building intrinsic motivation for change
• Twelve-Step Facilitation (TSF) — engagement with peer recovery communities
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) — restructuring thought and behaviour patterns
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) — psychological flexibility and values-driven action
