If you’ve been searching for a “drug rehab program near me” and landed here, welcome—you’re in the right place. At Recovery From Home we know how overwhelming it can feel to take this step. You might be wondering how to get help without turning your world upside down or if there’s a program that truly understands the South African experience. We’re here to tell you: yes, there is, and it’s us.

A Local Solution for a Local Struggle

Living in South Africa, you’ve likely seen or felt the impact of addiction—whether it’s the pull of “tik” in the Western Cape, the quiet grip of prescription meds, or the widespread reach of alcohol and cannabis. The stats back it up: SACENDU reports show cannabis topping treatment admissions, with kids as young as 12 already battling dependency. It’s a tough reality, made harder by the pressures of life here—jobs, family, and just keeping it all together.

Maybe you’ve hesitated to seek help because leaving home for weeks isn’t an option. Or maybe the idea of a sterile rehab center feels too far from the real you. That’s why we built Recovery From Home: a drug rehab program that’s as close as your phone or laptop, designed for South Africans like you who need a practical, personal way to heal.

What You’ll Get with Us

You didn’t come here for a generic pitch, so we won’t give you one. At Recovery From Home, we’re all about meeting you where you are—literally and figuratively. Here’s what you can expect when you choose us:

  • Recovery on Your Terms: No need to pack a bag or explain a long absence. Our online outpatient program lets you heal from home, keeping your job, family, and routine intact. After a short detox (if needed), you’re back to your life—with us by your side.
  • Digging Deeper: Addiction isn’t just about the substance; it’s about what’s driving it. Maybe it’s stress, trauma, or something you can’t quite name. With tools like neuropsychological testing, we figure out the “why” fast and build a plan that’s all about you.
  • Real-Life Ready: Forget the bubble of inpatient rehab. We help you practice sobriety in your actual world—whether you’re in Joburg, Cape Town, or anywhere else. That way, when triggers hit, you’ve already got the skills to handle them.
  • A Team That Gets It: Leading us is Gideon de Wit, a South African expert with over 20 years of turning lives around. He’s worked with everyone from CEOs to everyday folks, and he’s here to guide you with zero judgment.

Why This Feels Right for South Africa

We get it: South Africa isn’t a one-size-fits-all place. From the hustle of Gauteng to the laid-back coast of KZN, our lives are diverse—and so are our struggles. That’s why an online rehab like ours makes sense. It’s private, affordable, and lets you stay connected to what matters. Plus, you’re not just a number here—you’re someone we’re rooting for.

TESTIMONIALS
Our clients success stories:

I was extremely impressed by the experience of completing the assessment and seeing the wealth of clinical material that is generated when you explained my results. This was even more powerfully demonstrated in your presentation of Recovery neuropsychological assessments before and after scores. It clearly has a robust scientific base but, by addressing the underlying dynamic processes, it gives an easily understood model of the focus driving all that is within. I will be extremely excited to be involved in this.

Dr Richard O'Flynn, Psychologist, Burt St Edmunds

I entrust my entire family in Gideon’s therapeutic care. He is a breath of fresh air in the stale world of traditional therapy. No wonder that after only 6 months in the UK he was already interviewed by BBC News. Brilliant!

Lara Grylis, Fawcett

I have been in and out of Rehabs many times, once for an entire year. Recovery From Home has helped me more in 23 days than a year in a Rehab. Finally, I am free!

Anonymous Patient

I could not believe that such a simple test could reveal so much of my inner workings. At first, I thought that the councilors cheated by telling Gideon my life story beforehand, but he deduced massive amounts of information even before being introduced to me. I recommend him and Recovery From Home with the greatest confidence.

Anonymous Patient

The Recovery From Home assessment gave me a comprehensive framework and strategy for understanding myself and the things that motivates me. Gideon possesses the unique ability to create a space where someone can truly discover themselves.

Schalck van der Merwe, Head of Group Change management for Shoprite Checkers

I undertook the evaluation process with Gideon to understand the complex interaction with others, myself, and the environment. I found it provided an analytical insight into our unique thought process and would highly recommend him as a caring and competent therapist to aid people in self-awareness and strategy advancement to reach their full potential.

Dr Wendy Dicks, General Practitioner

Bloody marvelous! I cannot wait for our weekly sessions.

Toby Roldt, Actor/Director

I was the worst of the worst and never thought I’d have the chance to change my ways. Dr Gideon De Wit truly saved my life in more than one way. Not only a true gem of a person but also fantastic at teaching you the necessary skill set to avoid future mistakes. The journey I have been on with Dr Gideon has helped me better understand myself, better my ability to improve my relationships and also gave me a fresh start on life. I owe all my future success to you. Thank you for your help, without you I’d still be the druggie that couldn’t go a day without her fix. I highly recommend his services, worth every moment and penny.
