In North America, it's a very common approach. It's much less so in Europe. In Switzerland, a clinic has been practicing it for about forty years and attracts addicts from all over the world: the Métairie Clinic in Nyon. The Minnesota program combines abstinence and group therapy. Those who are ill—for that is indeed how they are considered—must accept confronting their demons to recover. Pierre Morath was able to follow their daily lives for several months. Léa, Kévin, and Michel agreed to share their stories candidly. Their are poignant journeys, marked by both pain and courage.
