Our Birmingham Clinic
Outpatient Drug & Alcohol Rehab in Birmingham
Situated in the heart of Birmingham on Bradford Street, Step By Step Recovery brings first-class addiction treatment to the West Midlands.
Our dedicated outpatient clinic gives people the space to confront drug and alcohol addiction head-on, with access to expert therapists, evidence-based programmes and genuine round-the-clock support, all without having to put their lives on hold.
Private Outpatient Drug & Alcohol Rehab in Birmingham
Flexible, expert and entirely person-centred, our Birmingham outpatient programme is built for people who need real clinical support without a residential stay. Life doesn’t pause for recovery, and we don’t ask you to pause it either. Whether work, family or other responsibilities keep you at home, we’ll design a treatment programme that works around your schedule and still delivers meaningful, lasting results.
Treatment can extend across up to six months and draws on a broad range of proven therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT), individual counselling, group work and family therapy. For clients who require a medically supervised detox before outpatient therapy begins, we can arrange a seamless referral to The Lighthouse, our purpose-built residential clinic in Essex.

Facilities & Environment
Every detail of The Lighthouse has been designed to support your recovery
One-to-One Counselling
Dedicated private sessions with a specialist addiction counsellor give you a confidential space to examine what lies beneath your addiction and map out a recovery journey that reflects your individual circumstances and aspirations.
Group Therapy
Guided group sessions create a genuinely supportive space where clients draw strength from shared experience, form meaningful peer connections and develop the practical coping skills that make recovery stick.
Holistic Therapy
Addiction takes a toll on the whole person. Our holistic therapies work in tandem with clinical treatment to restore emotional balance and psychological wellbeing, addressing the full picture rather than the surface symptoms alone.
Family Therapy
The damage addiction does rarely stops with the individual. Our family therapy sessions create a safe, structured environment for clients and their loved ones to rebuild trust, restore honest communication and move forward together.
Aftercare & Mentoring
Leaving treatment marks a beginning, not an end. Every client is matched with a mentor who has lived experience of recovery, providing an ongoing source of practical wisdom, solidarity and encouragement as they navigate life beyond our clinic.
24/7 Availability
Whatever hour it is, our Birmingham team is reachable by phone, email or live chat. When difficult moments arise, you will never have to face them without access to someone who can help.
Treatment & Support Offered
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
A cornerstone of modern addiction treatment, CBT works by helping you examine the links between your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. By learning to recognise and interrupt the patterns that feed substance use, you begin to build genuinely different ways of responding to the world.
Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
Originally developed for emotional dysregulation, DBT has proved highly effective in addiction treatment. It gives clients a concrete toolkit for sitting with distress, managing intense emotions and making healthier choices in the moments that matter most.
One-to-One Counselling
The heart of our approach. Regular private sessions give you dedicated time with an experienced counsellor to work through the deeper drivers of your addiction at a depth and pace that feels right for you, without any audience.
Group Therapy
There is a particular kind of healing that only happens in community. Our facilitated group sessions harness that, bringing clients together to share honestly, challenge each other constructively and discover that recovery is far less isolating than addiction made it feel.
Family Therapy
Addiction rewrites family dynamics in ways that persist long after substance use stops. Our family therapy sessions address those dynamics directly, helping clients and their loved ones develop new ways of relating that actively support recovery rather than inadvertently undermining it.
Relapse Prevention
Sobriety built on insight is far more durable than sobriety built on willpower alone. Our relapse prevention work helps you understand your personal triggers at a deep level, develop responses that hold under pressure and face the future with a genuine sense of preparedness.
FOR FAMILIES
Family and visitor information
When someone is struggling with addiction, the people closest to them are struggling too. Our Birmingham clinic actively involves families in the recovery process, because we know the difference it makes when a client’s home environment supports the work they’re doing in treatment.
Keeping Families Informed
Subject to your consent, we can maintain regular communication with nominated family members, reassuring them of knowing you are safe, supported and making progress, without encroaching on your right to privacy.
Visiting Policy
We actively encourage family involvement at the right stages of treatment. Our team will always be present to help frame visits constructively, ensuring they strengthen your recovery rather than add to the pressures you’re working through.
Family Therapy
Our dedicated family therapy sessions go beyond updates and visits. They provide a professionally facilitated space where the real work of repairing relationships can take place honestly, safely and with proper therapeutic support on hand.
Guidance Before Admission
If family members have questions or concerns before treatment begins, perhaps about what to expect, how to help or what not to do, we are very happy to speak with them directly. A well-informed family is one of the most powerful assets any client can have.
Clinical Team & Safety
The people delivering your care at our Birmingham clinic are among the most experienced and committed in the field. Qualifications matter to us, but so does character; we look for practitioners who bring both clinical rigour and genuine human warmth to their work.
Experienced
Clinicians
Our therapists, counsellors and support staff hold advanced qualifications across psychology, counselling, social work and addiction medicine. A significant number have personal experience of recovery, which deepens their understanding of what clients are going through in ways that training alone cannot replicate.
Evidence-Based Treatment
We do not offer treatments that are unproven or fashionable. Every modality we use has a substantial evidence base behind it, and our team stays current with developments in the field to ensure we are always delivering care that reflects best practice.
Confidentiality & Safeguarding
The trust clients place in us is something we guard carefully. All personal information is handled under strict confidentiality protocols in full compliance with UK GDPR and safeguarding legislation, and staff receive regular training to ensure those standards are consistently upheld.
24/7
Clinical Support
Our clinical team does not keep office hours. Whether it is the middle of the night or a difficult Sunday afternoon, support is available because the moments when you most need help rarely arrive at convenient times.
Personalised Care Planning
Cookie-cutter treatment plans do not produce lasting recovery. At our Birmingham clinic, every programme is built from scratch around the individual, taking account of their history, their strengths, their specific vulnerabilities and their personal vision of what a life beyond addiction looks like.

I was lucky enough to find this amazing team over one and a half years ago now. They literally saved my life, which I will be grateful for the rest of my life. The team and the treatment were professional and very friendly. I can’t recommend them enough.
