About the Project

CAMFA supports people in the six counties of North Wales, this being Gwynedd, Ynys Môn, Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire and Wrexham. It’s a service for people who are concerned about their own drug and / or alcohol use and need support in remaining drug and / or alcohol-free. We are also a service to those who have been affected by the substance use of a family member. This service can be delivered either face-to-face, online or by telephone, between Monday and Friday, during the hours of 9am and 5pm. But we do offer some evening appointments also, to meet people’s needs.

Who do we support?

It’s a therapeutic service for people aged 18 and over needing specialist substance use psychological interventions. We offer a wide range of interventions, from one-to-one counselling support, motivational interviewing, and extended brief interventions to cognitive behavioural therapy.

How do we do it?

Clients can be offered up to 12 sessions of psychological interventions to help with their recovery. We have a range of venues for face-to-face delivery in the six counties in which we deliver. As part of the service, people can have inward referrals to the recovery groups which include MOIMR, Nudge and Pathways to Recovery, another form of services to help people in their recovery. We can offer self-help guides and other materials as appropriate whilst waiting for a therapist to become available, and can also signpost to other internal and external services as needed. This service is also offered in both Welsh and English and we have the provision to offer Polish too.

Referral

To access the service you can either self-refer which we recommend or you can be referred from any professional service i.e GP, Probation, Police etc, as long as you reside in one of the 6 counties of North Wales, and have a GP in the same area.
