Shine Bright Recovery Service

Our 1:1 AOD support provides a private, confidential and non-judgemental space to talk about what’s happening and work towards changes that are meaningful to you.

Individual Alcohol & Other Drug Support

We offer free 50-minute individual sessions with an experienced Mental Health Nurse for adults experiencing alcohol or other drug concerns, as well as family members and friends who are supporting someone they care about.

Support is tailored to you and may include:

  • Understanding alcohol or other drug use, patterns and triggers
  • Managing cravings and urges
  • Reducing use, working towards abstinence or maintaining recovery
  • Relapse prevention and planning for difficult situations
  • Mental health and emotional wellbeing
  • Building practical coping and emotional regulation strategies
  • Setting realistic recovery goals
  • Strengthening motivation and confidence for change
  • Relationships, communication and healthy boundaries
  • Supporting a loved one while protecting your own wellbeing
  • Connecting with other services and supports when needed

Our clinicians use evidence-based approaches including Motivational Interviewing, CBT and DBT-informed strategies, with support tailored to each person’s individual circumstances and recovery goals.

You don’t need to be in crisis, have a diagnosis or have already stopped using substances to ask for help. Wherever you are in the process of change, we can start there.
