Private Anxiety Rehab & Mental Health Support in Spain | Sea Recovery

One-to-one support for anxiety, panic, and chronic overwhelm — delivered in a luxury, non-clinical setting designed for emotional grounding, nervous system healing, and long-term regulation.

Sea Recovery offers fully private, highly personalised anxiety treatment in Spain. We support clients facing chronic stress, panic, trauma-based fear responses, or emotional exhaustion — guiding you toward sustainable emotional safety. This is not group therapy or a medicalised clinic. It’s discreet, emotionally intelligent support — tailored exclusively to your needs and nervous system capacity.

Understanding Anxiety: More Than Overthinking

Anxiety isn’t just excessive worry. It can present as chronic physical tension, insomnia, emotional overwhelm, fear of failure, or dissociation. Some clients appear high-functioning externally but are battling internal chaos. Others feel paralysed — unable to function under daily pressure. Whether your symptoms are loud or quiet, physical or emotional, we treat them with precision and care.

Many clients feel anxious every day without realising their nervous system is dysregulated. Others experience anxiety through the body — including physical symptoms like heart racing, digestive issues, or shallow breathing. These symptoms often appear alongside other mental health conditions, yet are frequently misdiagnosed or dismissed by general therapists or the NHS talking therapies service.

We support clients living with:

• Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
• Social or performance anxiety
• Health anxiety or panic disorders
• Hypervigilance and nervous system dysregulation
• Burnout and emotional collapse linked to chronic stress

Anxiety and Addiction: A Complex, Interwoven Cycle

Anxiety and addiction frequently co-occur, creating a challenging cycle where each exacerbates the other. Substances or behaviours are often used as a way to self-medicate anxious feelings, but this can worsen overall mental health.

For example, cocaine use can initially feel energising or confidence-boosting, but it often leads to heightened anxiety during and after use. This might include racing thoughts, panic, or sleep disruption. Similarly, gambling losses can trigger acute anxiety, financial stress, and feelings of hopelessness — reinforcing compulsive behaviours.

Conversely, withdrawal from substances like cocaine or alcohol often increases anxiety symptoms, creating a difficult feedback loop where not using triggers heightened nervous system sensitivity and panic. This makes maintaining sobriety emotionally challenging without the right support.

At Sea Recovery, we understand this interconnection deeply. Our dual diagnosis programme (dual diagnosis treatment) is specifically designed to address both anxiety disorders and substance use or behavioural addictions simultaneously, breaking this cycle and fostering sustainable recovery.

We support clients struggling with anxiety alongside addictions such as:

• Alcohol addiction
• Drug addiction
• Cocaine addiction
• Gambling addiction
• Sex and love addiction
• Other behavioural addictions

Private Anxiety Recovery — 100% One-to-One

Every part of your programme is designed around your story, symptoms, and emotional readiness. There are no groups, no public exposure, and no pressure to perform. Just calm, expert-led support in a safe and luxurious environment.

We understand that anxiety often requires more than a clinical setting or group therapy. That’s why our private therapy retreat for UK clients offers emotional depth and calm surroundings in Spain.

Your personalised anxiety recovery plan may include the following treatment options:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) — one of the most widely recommended evidence-based interventions for anxiety across the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) spectrum.
• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) — excellent for reducing anxiety symptoms linked to emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
• Family Systems / IFS-style therapy — helpful for identity loss, inner conflict, and trauma-driven anxiety.
• TRE (Trauma Release Exercises) — for chronic physical anxiety and fight-or-flight patterns, releasing stored tension in the body.
• Mindfulness and grounding practices — shown to promote reduced anxiety and emotional resilience through present-moment awareness.
• Creative therapy and emotional externalisation — using art, movement, and expression to process difficult emotions safely.

Who We Support

We work with individuals who need more than just coping tools. Our clients include:

• Professionals in burnout or breakdown
• Those navigating grief, trauma, or identity loss
• Clients with dual diagnosis — anxiety paired with substance use or depression
• Those experiencing disordered eating driven by emotional dysregulation
• Individuals struggling with self-worth and perfectionism

Therapies for Anxiety at Sea Recovery

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Reframes anxious thought loops and builds cognitive distance from triggers. Helps regulate reaction patterns, experience anxiety differently, and interrupt spirals. Widely endorsed as a first-line intervention across mental health problems by the NHS and international bodies.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

Blends acceptance and change strategies — ideal for those struggling with emotional overwhelm, panic, or dissociation. Particularly effective for clients who feel anxious in relational or internal conflict.

Family Systems Therapy (IFS-aligned)

Helps clients explore their internal landscape — recognising protective parts and healing trauma-linked inner narratives. A key component for clients who feel anxious about change or independence.

Trauma Release Exercises (TRE)

Body-based therapy that safely discharges stored tension. Essential for clients with chronic stress, nervous system freezing, or somatic symptoms such as muscle tightness, restlessness, or feeling physically overwhelmed.

Mindfulness & Somatic Awareness

Gently reconnects clients to the present — using breathwork, guided practices, and sensory safety to rewire fear-based patterns. Suitable for those who want to feel anxious less frequently and build emotional resilience.

Luxury Recovery Meets Emotional Safety

Unlike institutional clinics, our luxury rehab in Spain offers complete privacy. Our villa in Sotogrande blends high-end comfort with clinical excellence. Every moment of your stay is built to restore nervous system safety — from gourmet meals and ocean walks to curated holistic care.

Daily Structure May Include:

• Private therapy session (CBT, DBT, TRE)
• Mindful movement or journaling — even gentle ways of being physically active help reduce anxiety
• Holistic support — sound therapy, reiki, IV infusions, and massage
• Creative or silent integration time

Beyond Talk Therapy — Holistic Support for Anxiety

Our therapies extend far beyond talking. We help you regulate physically, emotionally, and energetically.

• Yoga therapy for calming the vagus nerve and improving mind-body connection
• Wim Hof Method & cold therapy for resilience, nervous system strengthening, and mental clarity
• Sound and frequency work for deep emotional and energetic release
• Gourmet, anti-inflammatory meals to support recovery and ease potential side effects of medication or chronic anxiety

Who Travels to Sea Recovery

• Clients from the UK — often seeking more discretion than offered at home
• Expats, business owners, or high-pressure performers needing full privacy
• Those coming from across Europe to escape daily triggers and reset

Aftercare & Long-Term Support

• Weekly virtual therapy or coaching to maintain emotional stability
• Guided breathwork and somatic tracking routines for ongoing nervous system care

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a formal diagnosis to attend?

No. You only need to feel like anxiety is affecting your quality of life. We support you from there.

Can you help with panic attacks?

Yes — we work extensively with clients experiencing panic, shutdown, or dysregulation. You’ll learn tools to prevent and navigate episodes.

Will I be asked to join group therapy?

No. All care is one-to-one, unless you request otherwise. Your privacy is our priority.

Can you help if I’ve already tried therapy before?

Yes. Many of our clients come to us after trying CBT or general therapy without lasting results. Our method is deeper, safer, and more holistic.
