In Sikh families, alcohol dependency often affects the whole household quietly, behind closed doors. Many families live with silence to protect izzat, worry that never leaves, tension children can feel, and love mixed with frustration.
Through our partnership with Sikh Warriors Project, we want to offer Sikh families something different: understanding first, treatment second.
Reported success rate when TSM is followed correctly*
There are many Sikh-focused programmes. Most are well-intentioned. But families often come to us after trying them because traditional approaches rely on willpower or abstinence alone, shame, lectures or pressure, and methods that ignore how the brain becomes dependent on alcohol.
Short-term change followed by relapse. This is not a failure of faith or character. It is a failure of the approach itself.
The Sinclair Method works by helping the brain gradually unlearn alcohol dependency, reducing cravings and compulsion over time.
For Sikh families, the goal is not labels. It is peace, stability, health and dignity for everyone in the household.
Sinclair Method UK provides a private, paid, medically supervised programme using The Sinclair Method. Published research reports success rates of up to 80 percent when the method is followed correctly. Results vary between individuals.
Unlike traditional approaches, there is no requirement to stop drinking immediately and no forced abstinence or public exposure. The treatment works gradually, helping reduce the desire for alcohol over time.
Medically supervised by UK doctors
Completely confidential and discreet
No labels, no judgement
For Sikh families, the goal is not labels. It is peace, stability, health and dignity. The Sinclair Method offers a path to lasting change without shame or public exposure.
Often, it is not the person drinking who reaches out first. It is a daughter, son, wife, husband, sibling, mother, father or other relative. That is completely okay.
Confidential conversations for concerned family members
Punjabi speaking support available
No judgement, no pressure
Support even if the person drinking is not yet ready
This is a private, paid programme with no obligation after an initial chat. If alcohol is affecting your family, especially if other approaches have not worked, we are here to listen.
Punjabi speaking conversations available.
No shame. Just understanding. Sometimes one conversation is enough to start real change.
