Thai Rehabs Extend Their Online Counselling Services

Leading drug and alcohol rehab centres in Thailand move beyond traditional online aftercare services to provide remote rehabilitation programmes.

As Thailand’s rehab clinics face challenging times during the coronavirus lockdown, many are trying to stay in business by offering online counselling services and remote support.

Using internet based platforms like WhatsApp and Skype means they can still offer limited services to existing clients and those unable to travel to Thailand for addiction recovery.

The reality is that most will not succeed as there is no good reason to choose a rehab centre in Thailand to deliver online services as location isn’t important for remote care.

While it does seem like an obvious path to take during difficult times, the majority of treatment providers do not have to necessary technology to deliver effective alternatives to existing online counselling services that are well established and have technology developed over many years.
