Serving Marbella and the Costa del Sol

Most of our residential clients fly into Malaga or Gibraltar and many are based in Marbella, Puerto Banus or the Golden Mile. Sotogrande is around fifty minutes by car from Marbella, close enough for seamless travel and far enough to reduce social pressure, triggers and public visibility. If you are searching for a rehab in Spain near Marbella that is private and humane, our Sotogrande setting is designed precisely for that.

• Discreet door to door transfers from Marbella hotels, villas and private residences
• Quiet, unbranded environment away from Marbella’s social circuit
• Optional family sessions available online to reduce unnecessary travel

Why choose Sotogrande instead of staying in Marbella

Many clients first look for a luxury rehab in Spain near Marbella and then realise they need distance to settle their nervous system. Sotogrande provides separation without inconvenience. Fewer distractions. Less exposure. More capacity for honest work. You can still access one-to-one therapy near Marbella while keeping your privacy intact.

Clinical intake and assessment (Marbella clients welcome)

Your stay begins with a private assessment that reviews history, risks, goals and practical constraints. We clarify what has been tried before and what actually helped. We also discuss device boundaries, confidentiality needs and any coordination with your existing clinicians. With consent we can liaise with your GP, psychiatrist or therapist to align the plan and ensure safe continuity. See our approach to confidentiality and technology policy.

• Personalised formulation (not a template diagnosis)
• Clear aims for the first 72 hours, then weekly review points
• Risk planning and sleep protection from day one
• Outcome tracking with simple measures so you can feel change

Therapeutic model: depth with stability

Therapy is one-to-one only unless you ask for a group element. We combine skills for immediate stability with deeper work for durable change. Sessions are paced to your capacity and integrated with body based regulation so you do not feel flooded. Core modalities include:

CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)

CBT helps surface the beliefs that drive avoidance, perfectionism or escalation. We map triggers, test predictions and build graded exposure where appropriate. CBT is often combined with sleep interventions from Sleep & Insomnia treatment so your system can recover between sessions.

DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy)

DBT is used for emotional regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal boundaries. We build a small “carry kit” of DBT skills that you can actually use in Marbella or at home, not a long list you will forget.

ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy)

ACT helps you move toward what you value even when anxiety or cravings are present. We translate values into tiny daily actions and review them in aftercare.

MET (Motivational Enhancement Therapy)

MET helps resolve ambivalence around change. We use MET widely for alcohol, stimulant and painkiller recovery, and for decision fatigue in burnout.

IPT (Interpersonal Therapy)

IPT supports grief, role transitions and attachment injuries. It pairs well with family therapy when relationships need repair.

Somatic and expressive work

Body based therapies help the nervous system release stored tension and learn safety again. Options include TRE, functional breathing, yoga therapy, sound therapy, art therapy, and dance & movement therapy. Where indicated, clients may also access Gestalt therapy, hypnotherapy, or energy work as supportive adjuncts.

Specialist and bilingual support

We can provide bilingual therapy and culturally sensitive work where needed. For clients who prefer minimal verbal processing, we can emphasise body led, creative and behavioural approaches.

Condition pathways (near Marbella)

Addiction recovery

We treat alcohol, stimulant and prescription medication use with privacy and clinical care. Pathways may include MET for motivation, CBT for triggers, DBT for urges, and relapse prevention mapped to your real risk windows in Marbella or at home. Detox can be coordinated privately when indicated (see detoxification).

• Alcohol addiction, cocaine, cannabis
• Painkillers and opioids: painkiller addiction, opioids, oxycodone, fentanyl, valium, xanax, ativan
• Stimulants and others: adderall, amphetamines, MDMA, ketamine, heroin
• Behavioural: behavioural addictions (gambling, sex & love, internet, gaming, shopping, nicotine, food)

Relapse prevention is designed around your real life in Marbella or at home: social venues, seasonal rhythms, travel patterns and public visibility. We write a simple safety plan you will actually use, not a binder of theory.

Eating disorder and disordered eating

Eating disorder treatment focuses on the emotional drivers beneath control, restriction, binge cycles or purge patterns. DBT skills reduce crisis spikes. Identity and self worth work rebuilds choice. Body based therapies help reconnect with signals safely. Nutritional support and holistic nutritional therapy can be coordinated where indicated.

Anxiety, depression and OCD

We treat anxiety, depression, and OCD with a blend of CBT, exposure planning (where appropriate), sleep repair and body based regulation. We also work with OCD in young adults and help families understand helpful vs unhelpful accommodation.

Trauma and PTSD

For trauma & PTSD we build safety first. We use TRE, mindful breath, paced processing and stabilising routines. We do not force disclosure. You decide what is ready. We pair trauma work with gentle creative expression when words are difficult.

ADHD and nervous system dysregulation

ADHD treatment focuses on regulation, structure and self compassion. We streamline your commitments, introduce friction to high risk behaviours and create a weekly cadence you can maintain in Marbella or at home.

Dual diagnosis and complex pictures

Dual diagnosis care integrates trauma, mood and use patterns rather than treating them in silos. We coordinate with medical providers when medication reviews are needed and keep communication tight so the plan remains coherent.

Holistic and medical coordination

• Bespoke therapies blended with core psychotherapy
• In-house amenities including ice baths, sauna and movement
• Cold exposure & breathwork with clear safety protocols
• Equine therapy by arrangement
• Michelin-style cuisine and personalised nutrition
• Medical coordination and clinical oversight where required
