Aftercare for Life at Metamorphosis Centre for Change
Planning for Continued Recovery
Recovery continues beyond the time spent in treatment. Returning to work, home and relationships brings opportunities to use new skills, along with situations you may want support to navigate.
After the two-year Continuation of Care period, eligible former clients receive lifetime alumni aftercare within applicable purchased treatment packages, including two email invitations weekly to online aftercare and an ongoing connection to a recovery community. It provides space to discuss daily life, reflect on progress and seek support when circumstances change.
Introducing Aftercare for Life
The program is designed to support people continuing their recovery from substance use or behavioural concerns. Regular group contact offers a way to stay connected while building routines outside the treatment setting.
Lifetime alumni aftercare is included at no separate charge for eligible former clients after the two-year Continuation of Care period, with two email invitations weekly to online aftercare. Before your treatment ends, confirm eligibility, how to join, the timetable and participation requirements. Ask which individual counselling is included in your written package and whether any additional treatment is separately purchased.
Why Continued Support Matters
Aftercare gives you opportunities to bring everyday questions back into a supportive setting. You may want to discuss changes in relationships, work pressures, coping strategies or how to keep making time for recovery.
Your aftercare plan can sit alongside other agreed services, such as individual appointments, community support or family sessions. Discuss how these parts fit together and who to contact if your needs change.
Community and Continued Growth
Explore our information on behavioural addiction as you discuss the support and ongoing goals relevant to your situation.
Online Aftercare Invitations
Eligible former clients receive two email invitations weekly to online aftercare. Groups provide a place to talk about progress and challenges with others who are also working on recovery. Confirm the session day, time zone, duration and joining instructions with the team.
Ask about group expectations, confidentiality, whether sessions are recorded and what to do if your internet connection fails. Choose a space where you can participate without being overheard.
Individual Support
The program also describes access to individual counselling when more personal guidance is needed. Ask how these appointments are arranged, whether a referral or assessment is required and which sessions are included in your plan.
Support for Loved Ones
A client’s designated loved one may receive one weekly email invitation for family aftercare for life, subject to appropriate participation preferences and permissions. Applicable packages also include an eight-lesson online course for the chosen loved one to complete at home while the client is in treatment. Explore the Family Support Program and confirm consent, invitation details and course access with the team.
Responding to Challenges and Setbacks
If things become difficult, speak with your treatment team about what has changed and what support you need. An aftercare conversation can help identify next steps, including whether your current plan needs to be reviewed.
Do not wait for the next group if you need more immediate help. Agree in advance on contact arrangements between sessions. Aftercare groups are not an emergency service; call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department in an emergency.
Build Your Plan Before Leaving Treatment
Before your program ends, confirm:
- Your eligibility and first aftercare group date.
- The online platform, joining link and any setup instructions.
- The services included in your treatment package and any additional fees.
- Who to contact about missed sessions or changes in your needs.
- How aftercare fits with counselling, medical appointments and other support.
If you are finishing a virtual outpatient program, a Hybrid Program or a detox-only stay, ask which aftercare arrangements apply to that specific program. Eligibility should be confirmed as part of your plan.
Aftercare and Continuation of Care
These services offer different forms of ongoing contact. Applicable purchased packages include two years of Continuation of Care, with weekly counsellor check-ins during the first two months and regular contact through the remainder of the two-year period. Eligible former clients then receive lifetime alumni aftercare, including two email invitations weekly to online aftercare.
Ask the team which services are included for you and how to access each one. Lifelong group access does not mean unlimited individual appointments or an immediately available counsellor at all hours. Enhanced Aftercare Options A and B are separately purchasable treatment packages; they are not miscellaneous wellness extras and are distinct from the included support described here.
Ask About Your Aftercare Arrangements
Whether you are preparing to leave treatment or want to reconnect, contact our team to confirm the next steps.
Request a written outline of eligibility, group access, individual sessions and any additional treatment outside your package. The unaltered 2026 information and pricing package is available to download immediately after the website confirms a successful information or callback request. Use the aftercare enquiry form for information about your ongoing support.
