Your journey with Likewise
At your first appointment, you’ll meet with a worker to assess your needs and establish the best support for you. Your key worker will help you to develop clear goals.
During your time with Likewise, you will work with us to achieve those agreed goals.
To support your in your journey with us we encourage you to attend appointments and take advantage of the range of group work and other activities that take place daily.
We will be led by you, as you’re the one that will be putting in much of the hard work. You will already have many coping skills and know from past experience what works and what doesn’t for you. Remember though, we have a great deal of experience of what works and many of our staff have had alcohol or drug issues themselves.
When you are ready to leave Likewise you will be introduced to the sustained recovery team. If needed, you can get further one-to-one support from them, where you will be with like-minded people, get a real feel for the recovery community in Sheffield and be more equipped to sustain your recovery.
Likewise wish you all the best in your journey with us.
