QIP Rainbow Tick Accredited

At South Pacific Private we believe every client is a precious, valuable and unique human being.  We provide treatment pathways that are respectful, inclusive and tailored to individual needs. This includes offering caring and tailored services that are inclusive of LGBTIQ+ people and embrace diversity. Whatever your gender or sexual preferences, we will do our utmost to ensure you receive safe, respectful and quality care.  

Addiction and mental health disorders often co-occur, with many relying on multiple addictive behaviours to medicate uncomfortable feelings. At South Pacific Private we treat all addictive processes and the underlying causes. 

Sex, love and intimacy disorders have affected people in treatment for years, undermining the recovery process. Intimacy and Sex Addiction Recovery Program is specifically tailored to examine the impact these behaviours can have on developing and maintaining healthy relationships while teaching the skills of recovery that lead to a life free from addiction. 

The program is facilitated by dedicated and experienced therapists that understand the complexity of these co-occurring conditions and provide a safe place for you to heal and feel. 

Childhood and sexual trauma often lay the foundation for many  addictive processes in sex and intimacy-related addictions. The program is facilitated by dedicated and experienced therapists who understand the complexity of these co-occurring conditions and provide a safe place for you to heal and feel.

South Pacific Private is looking forward to helping you make sense of your sexual history, to understand your behaviours, and to face the chaos and unmanageability that has been created in your life.
