Services Overview
Services
Two stages of care. One continuous plan.
Safeways runs a full outpatient practice today, and is building the residential programme that will complete it.
Three parts of one plan
Available now
Outpatient Consulting
Assessment, counselling, and routine check-ins for clients who don’t (yet) need residential care.
In development
Residential Care
A structured 90-day residential pathway for clients whose recovery needs more than outpatient visits can give — pending the physical facility.
Ongoing
Community Outreach
Sensitisation forums, school outreach, mobile engagement, and a peer recovery network — meeting people where they already are.
What we treat
Most common
Alcohol Use Disorder
From risky drinking through to severe dependence requiring supervised withdrawal.
Widespread locally
Drug & Substance Addiction
Cannabis, heroin, inhalants (glue sniffing), and poly-substance use.
Often missed
Dual Diagnosis
Substance use alongside conditions like depression, anxiety, or trauma — treated together, not separately.
Early intervention
