Confidential conversation
We discuss your situation with our coordinating physician and choose the right programme format.
Mental health and addiction
Depression, burnout, anxiety or addiction: residential programmes in the Alps above Lake Geneva, following an individual plan and in complete confidentiality.
About the specialty
Treatment that remains yours alone
Our principal partner in this field is Clinique Les Alpes in Les Avants above Montreux: a clinic licensed by the Swiss health department, with residential care and round-the-clock medical supervision. With just 27 private rooms, every programme remains truly individual, and the mountains, the forest and the view of Lake Geneva do their part as much as the treatment schedule.
The programme begins with a comprehensive assessment, including genetic and nutritional tests, and covers psychiatric care, psychotherapy and behavioural methods, medically supervised detoxification, nutrition and physical fitness. The average stay is 28 days; the exact length is set by the treatment plan. The scope includes depression, anxiety disorders, burnout and eating disorders, dependence on alcohol, opioids, stimulants and medication, as well as behavioural addictions: gambling, gaming, shopping and digital.
Family members can take part in dedicated formats: outpatient and a six-day residential programme. Before discharge, a relapse prevention plan and support for your return home are prepared. In Zurich, we also work with The Kusnacht Practice.
