Rehab for UK Clients: A Private, One-to-One Alternative in Spain
Private rehab in the UK often feels impersonal, clinical, or crowded. At Sea Recovery, we offer something completely different — a one-to-one, emotionally intelligent model of recovery in a peaceful villa near Marbella, Spain. Many of our clients come from the UK, seeking discreet, high-quality therapy with no waiting lists, no group exposure, and no pressure to perform.
Why More People in the UK Are Choosing Rehab Abroad
In the UK, mental health and addiction care can feel like a numbers game — rushed sessions, waiting lists, group therapy formats, and generic pathways that don’t reflect your reality. Even private UK rehabs often rely on shared treatment plans, standardised routines, and institutional settings.
Sea Recovery offers a reset. Here, your care is entirely private. You work with a small team of highly trained therapists, in a discreet setting where your story is heard, your pace is respected, and your healing is fully supported. No group therapy. No exposure. Just space to feel again.
Rehab UK vs Spain: What’s the Difference?
We support many UK clients who first tried rehab or therapy in the UK but didn’t feel seen. Here’s how our approach compares:
- Privacy: UK rehabs often include group therapy and shared housing. At Sea Recovery, you receive private therapy and your own suite — always.
- Cost: Many high-end UK rehabs cost £20,000–£45,000/month. Our bespoke care typically costs 30–50% less, without compromising quality.
- Environment: Spain offers sea air, sunshine, and tranquillity — ideal for burnout, trauma, and emotional shutdown. Our unbranded villa protects your peace from the moment you arrive.
- Waitlists: The NHS system is often overwhelmed. We offer immediate admission, without delay or referral.
Why UK Clients Come to Sea Recovery
Clients from London, Manchester, Bristol, Birmingham, Edinburgh, and across the UK travel to Sea Recovery for one reason: they want something that goes deeper.
They’ve often tried traditional clinics, seen therapists who didn’t quite land, or gone through systems that treated symptoms but never touched the core. At Sea Recovery, we support your healing emotionally, behaviourally, and somatically — rebuilding the nervous system and restoring a grounded connection to yourself.
What We Treat
We work with UK clients facing a wide range of emotional and behavioural issues — often in complex or overlapping ways. Many are high-functioning but internally struggling, emotionally numb, or carrying unresolved trauma.

- Drug addiction — including cocaine, heroin, oxycodone, ketamine, MDMA
- Behavioural addictions — such as gambling, sex & love, shopping, internet use, workaholism
- Anxiety, social panic, and chronic worry

- PTSD and developmental trauma
- Self-worth, shame, and identity struggles

Therapies Tailored to You
At Sea Recovery, therapy is always private. There are no groups, no rotating practitioners, and no one-size-fits-all models. You receive consistent care from skilled professionals who understand emotional nuance and complex healing.

Arrival From the UK: What to Expect
Flights from the UK to Malaga or Gibraltar are short and accessible. Our team assists with all logistics — from airport transfers to personalised arrival scheduling. No referral is needed, and confidentiality is maintained at every stage.
We support clients from across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Many are referred informally by therapists, family members, or friends who recognise a need for something deeper.

FAQs for UK-Based Clients
Do I need a GP or NHS referral?
No. We are fully private and you can self-refer. Many of our UK clients prefer this route for discretion and speed.
Can I get immediate admission?
Yes. We regularly accommodate urgent arrivals and can welcome new clients within 24–72 hours depending on availability.
Is rehab really more affordable in Spain?
Yes — most high-end UK centres cost significantly more, often with shared therapy or lower one-to-one contact time. Sea Recovery is both more private and better value.
What if I’ve relapsed or feel like I’ve failed?
You are welcome here. Shame and judgement have no place at Sea Recovery. Many of our most successful clients came after one or more relapses.
Can I access ongoing therapy once I return to the UK?
Yes — we offer remote support, lifetime aftercare, and structured integration sessions to continue your progress back home.
