Inside One-to-One Addiction Treatment (Therapy Model Explained)

Why Marbella proximity + Sotogrande privacy works

Marbella has energy — and scrutiny. Our private estate in Sotogrande (≈50 minutes from Marbella) lets you step back from noise without leaving your world. Sea air, Mediterranean light and gardens calm the body; unbranded surroundings protect your anonymity. We arrange discreet transfers from Marbella, Puerto Banús, Málaga and Gibraltar, and we can schedule device windows for essential work. Explore the experience on Life at Sea Recovery and our ethos on the Sea Recovery homepage.

How one-to-one treatment actually works here

Every plan blends targeted psychotherapy with regulation and creative work so mind and body move together. You’re never pushed faster than your system can hold — which is why the work sticks. Explore our one-to-one therapy model and why many choose the private route over groups.

• CBT — map triggers/beliefs; run experiments that loosen rigid loops
• DBT — emotion regulation, distress tolerance, boundaries
• ACT — values-based action when urge/anxiety flares
• 12-Step counselling — integrated, non-dogmatic, one-to-one
• IPT — grief, role transitions, relational repair
• IFS/attachment work — parts that over-protect, perform or punish
• MET Therapy — resolve ambivalence & process trauma at your pace
• TRE & functional breathing — down-train threat; restore interoception
• Yoga therapy & mindfulness — safety in the body
• Art, sound, movement — express when words won’t
• Hypnotherapy & Gestalt (when indicated)
• Equine-assisted therapy & bespoke therapies

Detox & medical liaison (safety without drama)

If you require stabilisation before deeper work, we coordinate private medical detox with licensed partners — quietly and safely — then fold you into daily one-to-one care. With consent, we liaise with your prescribers to review medications (especially opioids, benzos, stimulants). See our medical liaison & safety standards.

Addictions in depth — what you may feel, and how this changes here

Alcohol

You might be feeling: “I’m always ‘on’, then I need wine to turn ‘off’.” Mornings are foggy; evenings are a negotiation with yourself. You promise to cut back, then social or stress cues steamroll your plan.

How we help: We stabilise sleep/light to reduce physiological craving windows, use DBT for urge surfing, CBT to dismantle “permission thoughts”, and ACT to reconnect effort to values that matter. Medical detox available when indicated. See Alcohol addiction treatment.

Cocaine & stimulants (incl. Adderall/Ritalin/amphetamines)

You might be feeling: Brilliant in bursts — then flat, anxious or irritable. Sleep crashes, appetite skews, relationships strain. Weekends expand into weekdays.

How we help: We rebuild circadian rhythm first (sleep–energy–mood), then target habit loops with CBT. MET and IPT address identity and relational triggers (status, conflict, shame). Explore Cocaine, Adderall, Ritalin, amphetamines.

Opioids (heroin, fentanyl, oxycodone & painkillers)

You might be feeling: Relief followed by narrowing of life. You chase normal, not euphoria. Fear of withdrawal runs the day.

How we help: Quiet, coordinated detox when appropriate, pain/recovery education, somatic regulation (TRE, breathwork) for cravings, plus DBT skills to ride waves. See Opioids, Oxycodone, Fentanyl, Painkillers, Heroin.

Benzodiazepines (Xanax, Valium, Ativan)

You might be feeling: Anxiety rebound between doses, memory fog, shrinking comfort zone.

How we help: Prescriber-led taper planning when needed, sleep & nervous-system retraining, ACT for anxious thoughts you can notice without obeying. See Xanax, Valium, Ativan, Prescription medication misuse.

Cannabis & nicotine/vaping

You might be feeling: “It’s just to take the edge off.” Motivation dips, sleep fragments, anxiety creeps back when you try to stop.

How we help: Body-first regulation, cue mapping, replacement routines and values anchors — so you don’t swap one crutch for another. See Cannabis, Nicotine.

Psychedelics & club drugs (ketamine, MDMA, LSD/psilocybin)

You might be feeling: Comedown lows, derealisation, chasing insight that never lands, increased risk-taking.

How we help: Integration work (not shame), stabilisation of sleep and mood, trauma-informed psychotherapy for what you were trying to treat alone. See Ketamine, MDMA, LSD/psilocybin.

Behavioural addictions (gambling, sex & love, internet/gaming, shopping, work)

You might be feeling: Time disappears, relationships strain, finances wobble, shame grows — yet stopping feels impossible.

How we help: Habit-loop mapping, DBT for urges, healthy-dopamine planning (movement, sunlight, social repair), boundaries and IPT where closeness/criticism are triggers. See Behavioural addictions, Gambling, Sex & love, Internet, Gaming, Shopping, Work.

Dual diagnosis — when mood and use intertwine

Anxiety, depression, ADHD or trauma often ride with alcohol, stimulants or prescriptions. Integrated care is safer and more durable. We combine DBT for urges, ACT for values under pressure, IPT for relational triggers and medical liaison when indicated. Explore Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, OCD, BPD, plus our Mental Health & Eating Disorders hub and Food Addiction. Insomnia is treated clinically via sleep repair.

The setting: villa, cuisine & nervous-system design

This is a healing space, not a hospital. Suites are private, quiet and sun-lit; therapy rooms face gardens and sea-blue sky. Chef-prepared menus stabilise energy and mood (Michelin-style cuisine); optional holistic nutritional therapy supports the gut-brain axis. Wellness amenities include massage, acupuncture and lymphatic drainage (bespoke services), ice baths and a yoga deck (in-house amenities), with optional regulated cold exposure. See private accommodations, our location & travel, and pet-friendly stays.

• Midday: chef-prepared lunch; integration; optional bodywork (massage/acupuncture)
• Afternoon: creative/identity work, skills drill, nature walk
• Evening: journaling, sleep protection protocols

What “results” look like here (and how we measure them)

We track sleep continuity, baseline anxiety, urge frequency, cognitive flexibility, boundary follow-through, compassion vs self-attack and social re-entry. You leave with a written plan mapped to Marbella routines, scheduled remote sessions and a relapse-prevention playbook (Life Skills & Relapse Prevention, Lifetime Aftercare (support), Lifetime Aftercare (overview)). Recovery is possible and non-linear; our role is to keep you safe, seen and steadily resourced.
