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 center, 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.
