In addition, worldwide,  from the United Kingdom (UK) and other countries throughout Europe.  Interventionists, private practice clinicians, behavioral health care facilities , EAP’s, Union health and welfare funds and other professionals find the gender separate services for women, pregnant women and women with children to be unique, holistic, spiritually centered and effective in achieving long term responsible addiction recovery.
