Meeting Unique Needs

Sometimes individuals who suffer from mental illness develop dependence on chemical substances as well—in these cases, treatment must address the underlying medical issue as well as the addiction.

Mental illnesses can cause mood swings, hormonal imbalances, and other issues from which a person seeks relief. When people find temporary emotional relief through narcotics or alcohol, addiction can set in. In our program, clients requiring medical and/or psychiatric attention can also find what they need with Cognitive Behavior and other therapeutic treatment programs.

We have a serious commitment to helping find the root causes behind drug addiction and alcoholism.

Watershed acknowledges the traditional custodians of country and their continuing connection to land, culture and community. We pay our respects to elders past, present and future.

Watershed holds accreditation with the Australian Council on Health Care Standards (ACHS).
