Welcome to Tharagay House addiction secondary care centre
Tharagay House is an addictions extended
care facility specialising in the treatment of drug addiction*, alcoholism, anorexia, bulimia and compulsive overeating. Our approach
is holistic and thus meets the needs of all subsidiary addictions
including gambling and sex addiction.
We are a residential facility focusing on clients
who have already detoxified and are needing longer care to facilitate
the transition from early recovery to long term
changes. Our addiction treatment programme is
unique in that it caters for residents who are both employed and
for those still needing direction.
We provide the opportunity to practise new skills in a safe and nurturing environment.
Tharagay House was established in 1995 and
was named in memory of a young woman who died from her addiction. We are the oldest and most experienced secondary care treatment facility in Cape Town.
Our African clients come from as far as Johannesburg and Nairobi. The Rand's low currency exchange rate – as well as a solid reputation – has made Tharagay House the popular choice for addicts in the UK and Netherlands.
We are situated in Kenilworth,
Cape Town in South Africa, a minute's walk from the station with
easy access to all areas. A 20 bed facility, our emphasis is on
creating an environment which simulates life as
closely as possible and one in which our clients can practise healthy ways of dealing with their feelings and experiences.
We have a proven track record maintaining an above average recovery rate.
