Who seeks treatment online from Nairobi

Specialist addiction provision of this depth is not always easy to access locally, and for professionals, members of the international and diplomatic community, and others who value discretion, online work removes the problem of visibility entirely. Many people who come to this practice from Nairobi are managing demanding roles and significant responsibility, and need treatment that fits around their lives rather than requiring them to step out of them. The work is the same one-to-one specialist work that takes place in London, only the room is virtual.

The clinical approach

Addiction is not a moral failure. It is a relationship (between a person and a substance or behaviour) that once served a function and has become the problem. The work is to understand the function, address what the addiction has been managing, and build a life that does not require it to sustain it. This is rarely quick: recovery is a long process rather than a single event, and lasting change comes from working with the underlying patterns (often trauma, anxiety, or emotional regulation) that the addiction was holding at bay. Where the difficulty sits alongside depression or trauma, the two are treated together as one connected picture.
