Treatment centres for addictions, dependent and codependent issues and childhood abuse

The Meadows at Wickenburg  in S.W.Arizona  USA

The Meadows in Wickenburg Arizona is one of the world's top treatment centres for addictions, both substance(alcohol, drugs, food etc) and process (gambling, work, sex, internet etc) and childhood abuse. The Institute is conducted byPat Mellody and  Pia Mellody (author of bestsellers "Facing Codependency" and "Facing Love Addiction". The Meadows places a strong emphasis on successful twelve step programs. Their website often carries many excellent articles on addictions and relationships.  Staff include Dr John Bradshaw, Patrick Carnes and Claudia Black who all contribute articles to The Meadows web site. Carnes'   page on Nicotine addiction is a 'must'    If you have the money for the air fare this is one of the greatest gifts you could give yourself.

South Pacific Hospital - Harbord Sydney NSW Australia

Australia's best treatment centre in my opinion, because the staff follow the same methods as at The Meadows (above) and have been trained by Meadows staff. Specialising in treatment of  addictions, both substance(alcohol, drugs, food) and process (gambling, work, sex, internet) and codependency and childhood abuse. I know many people whose lives have been changed permanently (and positively) after going to South Pacific.  For more details see website.  Major rebates if you are on high scale private health cover.  Other problems that South Pacific Private hospital also specialise in treating  include
