Banyan House (Darwin, N.T)

Banyan House (Darwin, N.T) is a therapeutic community, which is a group of people working together to overcome their common problem of alcohol and/or other drug addiction.

At Banyan House, recovery means regaining lost or diminished capability, health or previous level of functioning. In other words, returning to a state of physical and mental health.

Our view of recovery extends beyond achieving and maintaining abstinence to encompass lifestyle and identity change.

At Banyan House, recovery involves residents taking an active role in your own recovery by following a structured program that incorporates a system of trust, individual responsibility & community participation.

The community structure provides the opportunity for people to reflect upon their previous lifestyle that has led them along a path of alcohol and other drug misuse.

Within the therapeutic community, residents learn new behaviours and gain new perspectives on life and it is with the support of other recovering addicts and the guidance of staff at Banyan House that positive changes can be made.

  1. I was impressed by the level of care and support I received at the drug and alcohol rehab. The staff was amazing and always available to help, and the facilities were top-notch and provided a comfortable and safe environment. I would recommend this facility to anyone seeking help with addiction

  2. Before entering rehab, the relapses were a constant source of fear and anxiety, causing me to feel like I was losing my mind and my grip on reality. The staff here were instrumental in my recovery journey. Their knowledge and expertise helped me understand the root causes of my addiction and provided me with the tools I needed to overcome it.
