The Addiction Clinic

The Addiction Clinic is a specialist treatment provider in New Zealand focusing solely on alcohol addiction. Operating both in-person and via telehealth, the Clinic was founded to support individuals—particularly working professionals, parents, tradespeople, farmers, and rural residents—who struggle to access traditional inpatient rehab due to time constraints. They deliver an intensive 6-week outpatient program explicitly tailored to alcohol use disorder. The program integrates weekly 1-on-1 cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) sessions, targeted relapse prevention techniques, and daily phone check-ins. Offering flexible delivery, they serve clients across major centers—including Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga, Wellington, Nelson, and Christchurch—as well as supporting remote participants via Zoom or telephone. The Clinic distinguishes itself with a non–12‑Step model backed by evidence-based CBT and structured accountability. Designed for people juggling work, family, or rural life, their approach brings rehabilitation to the client rather than requiring long-term residential stays. The 6-week program costs NZD 2,995 and begins with a telephone assessment to gauge withdrawal risks and treatment readiness.
