VETERANS RESET
ALCOHOL & DRUG PROGRAM

Veterans Reset is a private, one-to-one 12-week online program for alcohol and drug use. It’s a structured, non-residential alternative to rehab, designed for veterans who want confidential support and measurable progress.

It’s designed for Australian veterans who are struggling with alcohol or drug use and want private, structured help that fits around work, family, and daily responsibilities.

Over 12 weeks you complete guided online modules and meet one-to-one with a facilitator each week. There are no group sessions unless specifically requested. The program gives you practical strategies and steady support to help you stop drinking or using drugs and build a more fulfilling life.

Yes. All sessions are one-to-one and completely private. We only contact others, such as family, your GP, or DVA, with your consent.

If you drink heavily every day or use drugs regularly, stopping suddenly can be unsafe. In those cases, we recommend speaking with your GP about detox before starting. For most people, this program can be started directly as a non-residential alternative to rehab.

Yes. If you hold a DVA Gold or White Card, you may be eligible for funding under the D9314 prior financial authorisation process. We guide you through this application.

D9314 is the Department of Veterans’ Affairs process for approving non-residential alcohol and drug treatment. We prepare the treatment plan, outcome measures, and reports DVA requires, and submit the application on your behalf.

Approval times vary, but many applications are processed within a few weeks once the required documents are submitted. We handle the paperwork and keep you updated throughout the process.

We use simple, recognised tools such as the K10 assessment before and after the program to measure changes in wellbeing, along with facilitator progress notes.

We recommend abstinence during the 12 weeks to get the most from the program. If moderation is your long-term goal with alcohol, that can be planned for afterwards. For drug use, abstinence is always the target.

Rehab usually means staying away from home for weeks or months in a group setting. Veterans Reset is done online, from home, with one-to-one support. It’s designed for those who want privacy, flexibility, and a program that fits their life.

Yes. Veterans Reset aligns with DVA’s requirements for non-residential AOD (alcohol and other drug) treatment, including structured modules, measurable outcomes, and discharge reporting.

Yes. If you choose, we can involve your partner or family in selected sessions, or provide guidance to help them support your recovery.

Setbacks are part of recovery. If you slip, your facilitator will help you use it as a learning point and adjust your plan so you can get back on track quickly.

Once we’ve confirmed you meet the criteria and your application has been submitted, you can usually begin the program while the funding approval is pending. That way you don’t lose momentum while waiting for DVA to finalise the paperwork.

You can still enrol privately. We’ll explain options at your free consultation.

Yes. We provide treatment plans, progress updates, and discharge summaries as required for DVA reporting.

No. Veterans Reset is designed for Australian veterans and aligns with DVA funding and reporting processes.
