Changes II Program

South Pacific Private are the pioneers in the treatment of trauma and co-occurring addiction and mental health issues.

Changes II is South Pacific Private’s follow-up bespoke workshop to their signature workshop Changes I. This trauma-informed program assists clients to examine unresolved trauma and how they relate to current concerns through Pia Mellody’s Model of Developmental Immaturity. This occurs through exploring an individual’s current issues in the context of underlying developmental trauma – it is a continuation of the deep and transformative work completed in the Changes I Program.

The Changes II Program is facilitated by our renowned and exclusively-trained clinicians.  This unique program has been designed for participants to learn how to manage present-day relational difficulties, behaviours and explore the underlying causes that have fuelled addictions and mental health conditions.

The program is specifically tailored to individuals who have early childhood and development trauma related to abuse, neglect and growing up in a less than nurturing environment and have completed the Changes I Program.

Most major health funds will cover the Changes II Program. Clients can claim via their private health fund, if sufficient hospital cover is held. Please note all funds have different rules. We accept self-funded payments.

The full cost of the program for self-funded clients is $350 per session and includes morning tea and lunch. 

For more information please contact our Intake Team here. They can arrange a health fund check and determine any out-of-pocket excess or gap fees.

The workshop is a five-day intensive group running Monday through Friday from 9 am to 3:45 pm.

Clients completing their inpatient treatment at South Pacific will be referred into the Changes II Workshop.
