Lifetime Aftercare & Support for Long-Term Recovery

True recovery begins after treatment ends. Our Lifetime Aftercare Programme offers ongoing support to help you stay grounded, connected, and well.

Support That Stays With You

At Sea Recovery, we don’t believe in time-limited care. Healing is not a 30-day process — it’s a lifelong journey. That’s why we offer a dedicated Lifetime Aftercare & Support Programme for every client who completes one of our core treatments. Because how you transition out of treatment is just as important as how you enter it.

Our aftercare is not generic. It’s personal, structured, and emotionally intelligent — designed to help you stay aligned with your values, regulate your nervous system, and navigate the real world with ongoing therapeutic support for addiction, anxiety, depression, and dual diagnosis.

What Is Lifetime Aftercare?

Lifetime Aftercare is a continuation of one-to-one support beyond residential or outpatient treatment. It’s a flexible, client-led service designed to meet your evolving needs — whether that’s monthly coaching calls, emotional check-ins, relapse prevention, or guidance around identity and emotional reintegration.

We stay connected with you after you leave, providing:

• Regular therapeutic check-ins
• Relapse prevention coaching
• Support for burnout and nervous system dysregulation
• Mindfulness, journaling, and reflection tools
• Referrals to trusted specialists in your region
• Ongoing access to your therapist (where possible)

Why Aftercare Is Essential

No matter how strong your treatment experience, returning to the real world comes with new pressures, responsibilities, and emotional triggers. Without ongoing support, clients recovering from addiction, trauma, or depression may slip into old coping mechanisms — not due to failure, but due to isolation and lack of guidance.

Lifetime Aftercare helps you:

• Maintain emotional regulation post-treatment
• Strengthen tools for anxiety and distress tolerance
• Address relational patterns and attachment wounds
• Feel supported through dips, setbacks, or high-risk moments
• Prevent relapse and reduce shame around emotional “slips”

Emotional Setbacks Are Part of Recovery

Many clients experience emotional dips weeks or months after discharge. It’s a normal part of integrating trauma healing, emotional numbness, and nervous system repair. Lifetime Aftercare provides safe space to reflect, regroup, and reconnect to the progress you’ve made — before things escalate.

Personalised, Flexible Support

Whether you’re rebuilding after identity loss, processing grief, or navigating relationships post-treatment, we work with you to create a rhythm that fits. Support may include:

• Weekly or monthly therapy or coaching sessions
• Support for burnout, fatigue, and overperformance patterns
• Check-ins for clients with dual diagnosis or chronic mood instability
• Emotional guidance around life events, career transitions, or family dynamics

Included with All Core Programmes

Lifetime Aftercare is available to clients completing any of our core one-to-one treatment plans:

• Outpatient Programme
• Essential Care Programme
• Deluxe Programme
• Executive Programme
• Premium Tailored Programme
• Ultimate Bespoke Programme

Your plan is built with input from your therapist and wellness team during your final treatment phase to ensure continuity of care and clarity of support.

Coaching, Integration & Identity Work

Our clients often use aftercare to continue working on:

• Self-esteem and identity rebuilding
• Emotional reconnection after trauma or depression
• Integration of tools from ACT and mindfulness therapy
• Boundary-setting in relationships and work

Relapse Prevention Support

We work with you to identify emotional patterns, stressors, and behavioural flags that precede relapse — whether substance-related, behavioural, or emotional. With real-time support, we help you re-anchor before a spiral becomes a setback.

This is especially valuable for clients with chronic relapse cycles or emotional disconnection patterns like dissociation.

Family and Loved Ones

Families often need support too. We offer structured guidance, boundaries coaching, and optional joint sessions to help them:

• Understand what’s changed since treatment
• Respond to triggers or regressions without panic
• Hold emotional space while maintaining self-care

Peer & Local Support

Where helpful, we offer:

• Private, small-scale peer support with vetted clients
• Referrals to in-person therapists in your city or region
• Continued virtual access to the Sea Recovery team
