Daytime substance abuse rehabilitation for families

We offer social guidance and family therapy to families where a parent has a substance abuse problem.

Daytime substance abuse rehabilitation for families (outpatient substance abuse rehabilitation for families) helps families with children under the age of 18 and either or both parents with a substance abuse problem.

We plan the rehabilitation programme together with the family. The aim of the programme is to support parenthood and help the customer abstain from substance abuse. It is also designed to strengthen the family's resources. The programme can include social counselling and family therapy.

Together with the family, a social instructor will consider practical solutions for ensuring that the family's day-to-day life runs as smoothly as possible and look for ways to support abstinence from substance abuse. We can meet the family at home or at our office in Käpylä 1-3 times a week.

A family therapist will discuss with the family, for example, the relationships between the family members and the effects of substance abuse on the family members. Together, we will look for solutions to situations that seem difficult. The family therapist will plan the content, duration and other details of the therapy together with the family.

In addition, the rehabilitation programme can include group activities and peer support.

You can become our customer, for example, through the Substance Abuse Outpatient Clinic or Child Welfare Services. You can also contact the leading social worker, tel. +358 9 310 29977 or +358 50 402 0813. Call or send a text message.

Our services are free of charge to the family.
