At Connection Mental Healthcare, we strive to provide the highest quality of care for people suffering from different types of addiction. Unfortunately, this also means there are certain scenarios where our treatment may not be suitable – these indications are known as 'contraindications' and must be taken into account before commencing any form of therapy with us.
