Alcohol Help

Scarborough: Ark House Treatment Centre
The Aim of Ark House is to ‘Enable Recovery’ from Alcohol / Drug dependency

About us:

Ark House is a residential Treatment Centre for Alcohol/ drug dependant clients.

The treatment supplied at Ark House is a comprehensive program known as 12 Step’s Therapy.

The 12 Step Therapy is a program of instructional and self help materials, relying on following the original 12 steps of Alcoholic anonymous. Hence 12 Step Therapy is not a new form of treatment. It is a clear concise and sequenced explanation of the 12 Step’s. The service user (with help of structured lectures and groups) will with his/her assigned counsellor be guided through the steps to reach specified goals. This facilitates an understanding of the problem, the solution to the problem, and the plan of action to change that leads to recovery.

Ark House helps Service Users to get clean and sober from alcohol and drugs byusing a proven program that is readily available to them for continuing support after they leave Ark House. No new theories. No changes in direction. A continuous recovery through the 12 steps, pure and simple.
