ABOUT US


WHAT WE DO

Urban Recovery is an innovative strategy addressing substance dependence, compulsive disorders, and pornography addiction through unique methods. The team comprises individuals with similar life experiences, aiming to create a paradigm shift and ensure inclusivity. 

No one decides to become an addict. There are normally very complex and deep personal reasons for falling prey to such a debilitating disorder. At Urban Recovery  we see addiction as a symptom of a larger illness, almost as an attempt to self medicate and keep that illness at bay. Here, our philosophy is different. We believe that treating an addiction is only part of the healing process. We look to rehabilitate the whole, or at least identify where the greater problem lies.

At our treatment facility, we use our own unique program in association with Project Exodus and practice in a safe and warm environment of mutual understanding. We aim to give you control of your life back, help you reconcile with your past and empower you to embrace the future so that you are able to reach your FULL POTENTIAL.

OUR MISSION

We provide fresh, effective, affordable and sustainable solutions for everyone impacted by the slavery of addiction. Our mission is to make expert recovery resources readily available for all individuals, families, organisations, churches and communities who need them. Starting today, Urban Recovery is your recovery partner.

Meet Steven

Meet Steven, Founder of Urban Recovery. A leadership strategist, personal coach and recovery specialist with more than 20 years of experience leading people, building high-performance teams and managing complex operations. 
His career began in hospitality, where he spent 12 years overseeing large-scale operations, major events and multidifacited hotel teams. He later moved into corporate and pharmaceutical sales before taking on a pastoral role and community leader, managing substantial teams, addressing complex personal and organisational challenges. 
His pharmaceutical background also sparked a lasting interest in brain health, supplementation and nutraceutical science, including their relationship with cognitive performance, focus, mood, stress, sleep and overall wellbeing. He has explored evidence-based approaches to nutrition and supplementation as part of broader strategies for improving human performance and quality of life. 
Since 2019, Steven has specialised in recovery and personal transformation. He rebuilt an established inpatient recovery model into a comprehensive outpatient programme that has operated continuously since February 2020. The programme addresses the entire operating system of a person — mindset, physical and brain health, relationships, performance, purpose, spirituality and habits. 
Today, Steven works with business owners, executives, leaders and high-performing individuals (and those who have lost their way a little)to prevent personal challenges from undermining professional performance — or professional success from damaging health, relationships and purpose. 
His approach is direct, strategic and results-driven, helping clients identify blind spots, eliminate destructive patterns, raise standards and build sustainable results across every area of life. 
The objective is simple: BUILD A LIFE THAT YOU DON’T NEED TO ESCAPE FROM.
