For many of the girls at the clinic, Amy Winehouse’s voice was a soundtrack to their early childhoods. <\/p>\n
Ez, 25, is one of the newer residents and has been at the clinic for eight weeks. <\/p>\n
She said she designed an Amy Winehouse tattoo for herself five years ago, long before she knew of Amy’s Place, adding: “It just seems so strange to have benefited so much from her, it’s great.”<\/p>\n
She said the singer’s battles with addiction, recovery and relapse mirror some of her own experiences. <\/p>\n
“I definitely relate to her getting sober, relapsing, getting sober, relapsing. I myself relapsed a few weeks after I detoxed, and it’s only been since I went to rehab I’ve actually managed to stay clean. So I’m really glad that I did that.”<\/p>\n
For Ez, moving to the centre and meeting other women in a similar situation has been “amazing”. <\/p>\n
“Having people that you know have been through similar things to you and just being able to talk to them,” she said. <\/p>\n
“We also have key work every week, there’s counselling here, there’s art therapy, there’s nutritionists. I’m taking piano lessons now and it’s great, I feel supported.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For many of the girls at the clinic, Amy Winehouse’s voice was a soundtrack to their early childhoods.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":711724,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[6491,96,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-711723","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/711723","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=711723"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/711723\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/711724"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=711723"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=711723"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=711723"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
