Steps Together – George House is an outpatient recovery centre located in the suburb of Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire. Established in 2021, the facility supports adult men and women seeking help with alcohol, drug, and prescription medication addiction. George House operates as a standalone outpatient hub within the wider Steps Together treatment network.
Treatment Approach
George House functions as an extension of the residential services delivered at Bank House, while also accepting individuals who have not completed residential treatment. The centre is intentionally situated away from the residential setting, allowing clients to engage in therapy within a separate environment that supports independence and routine.
Treatment is delivered through structured outpatient programmes typically lasting between one and twelve weeks. Services are arranged to fit alongside personal and professional commitments, with therapy schedules shaped around individual clinical needs. Detox is not provided on-site, although private home detox support may be available for individuals who meet clinical criteria.
Therapy and Clinical Support
Clinical support at George House is centred on structured, individualised therapy. The outpatient model places emphasis on one-to-one sessions, allowing therapy to focus on personal challenges that may arise during or after more intensive treatment. Sessions commonly address relapse risk factors, interpersonal relationships, workplace pressures, and daily coping strategies.
Therapeutic approaches include individual counselling, group-based therapy options, and guided 12-Step work delivered in a one-to-one format. Family intervention services are also available, involving private weekly sessions facilitated by experienced therapists. Clinical input is provided by qualified professionals, with access to additional mental health referrals where appropriate.
