About Us

About Us

Brightside Drug Abuse Rehabilitation & Treatment Centre is a private mental health and addiction recovery facility set in the quiet, leafy neighbourhood of Kitisuru, Nairobi — easily reached from Westlands, Karen, Runda, and across the wider Nairobi area, as well as by families seeking trusted care from elsewhere in Kenya and the East Africa region.

We provide comprehensive, dual-diagnosis care for individuals struggling with substance use disorders, drug-induced psychosis, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and behavioural conditions such as internet addiction and gambling addiction. Whether you're looking for a drug rehabilitation centre in Nairobi, an alcohol rehab in Kenya, or a mental health treatment centre equipped to handle co-occurring disorders, our multidisciplinary team is here to help.

Our treatment approach is holistic and personalised, combining individual and group psychotherapy, psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) to address the root causes of addiction and mental illness, not just the symptoms. Group therapy is central to our programme, helping clients rebuild communication skills, interpersonal relationships, and social confidence alongside others on the same journey.

For clients who need medical detoxification or are managing more complex mental health conditions, our clinical team provides appropriate pharmacotherapy and ongoing psychiatric support in a safe, supervised environment. As one of the best rehabilitation & treatment centres in Kenya , recovery is built into daily life. A structured routine of physical activity, sport, and a modified step-based programme towards sober living unfolds within a supportive therapeutic community, designed to prepare clients for lasting recovery and successful reintegration into family and society.

If you or a loved one is looking for a trusted drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre in Nairobi, Kenya, schedule a confidential appointment with Brightside today. Let us walk with you on the path to recovery — reach out now.
