Send us Fan Mail Rehab in the UK is out of reach for most people. Short stays. High costs. Not enough time to actually recover. So what’s the alternative? In this episode, we sit down with Michelle Morphetis, psychotherapist at White River in South Africa, to talk about the truth about addiction—and why the current system isn’t working for so many people in the UK. We explore: – Why short-term rehab often isn’t enough – The real role of environment in recovery – Why people relapse after returning home – What actually gives someone a real chance at long-term change White River offers a different approach: ✔️ 3-month programmes (not just a few weeks) ✔️ A peaceful, natural environment in South Africa ✔️ Experienced, hands-on professionals ✔️ A cost that’s often far lower than UK options For many, it’s not just an alternative—it’s the first real opportunity to recover properly. If you or someone you know is struggling, there are other options. 🌍 Learn more about White River: https://whiteriverrecovery.com Or reach out privately if you want to talk through it. 🎙️ Hosted by Cullan Mais Guest Michelle Morphitis 📍 In partnership with White River Support the show Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVjOe4UwNRZx89uBXojoPcw/join You can also listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & Google Podcasts!

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we speak with a man who survived homelessness, domestic violence, and a moment at absolute rock bottom where life nearly ended.
