Troy and Kate were able to do what no one else was able to achieve in Auckland. Through working closely with them and doing their daily program I was able to develop a new way of thinking and reconnect with myself.

My experience here at Raglan Reconnection Retreat being a first time client at a detox, was very intellectual and comforting. I felt I could be myself and more. Troy and Kate are very sweet and patient.
James
Their honesty and the genuine care they gave is second to none and not like other places where it can feel like a prison we were constantly out in the elements, learning to enjoy what our beautiful country has to offer.

The service provided by Raglan Reconnection Retreat isn’t just about sobriety. Its about taking your life back, Reconnection with nature and the good things in life that we often neglect in our active addiction.

When I arrived at the Hamilton Airport, anxious, tired and at rock bottom I was meet by Troy and Kate’s smiling faces. They told me that they would love me until I learned to love myself. And they did just that.
