About this facility
The Orchid Recovery provides personalised recovery programs for substance use, mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as process addictions such as gambling. They offer detox and residential programs lasting 4, 8, or 12 weeks. By addressing the root causes of addiction and incorporating evidence-based and holistic therapies, The Orchid empowers clients to reclaim their lives in a supportive and serene environment in Thailand.
Under the leadership of The Orchid’s founder and full-time psychiatrist—a pioneer in addiction treatment who brings over 30 years of experience—clients receive a comprehensive blend of leading treatment methods. The Orchid uses evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), and trauma therapy to help clients address the root causes of addiction and build healthy coping mechanisms. The team incorporates daily holistic practices like yoga, sound baths, meditation, and mindfulness so that clients can reconnect with themselves. Additionally, IV therapy is used to promote faster physical recovery and protect the brain and body from long-term damage.
The Orchid Recovery recognizes the vital role loved ones play in the recovery journey and offers family therapy, both in-person and online, during the latter stages of treatment. Their counselling services help repair strained relationships, fostering understanding and unity within the family system. Additionally, family members who participate in therapy can enjoy the relaxing surroundings of The Orchid during their visit, creating a supportive and rejuvenating experience for everyone involved.
At The Orchid, recovery doesn’t stop when the client completes their residential rehab program. Their team provides two months of complimentary aftercare to help clients transition back to daily life. Through weekly Zoom sessions, clients focus on relapse prevention so that they can live a more fulfilling, substance-free lifestyle after treatment.
Located in a former hotel, The Orchid provides an intimate environment for residential treatment. With a maximum capacity of 20 clients, this small community fosters connection and ensures each client feels seen. Every client stays in a private room and enjoys access to tranquil gardens, a pool, a fitness centre, and the serene beauty of the surrounding mountains. Clients are served 3 chef-prepared meals per day, with a focus on healthy nutrition as in the Mediterranean diet; vegetarian options are possible.
