Who is residential treatment for?
Many people come to us after trying to control their drinking or drug use on their own for a long time. If alcohol or drugs are affecting your stability, your relationships or your mental health, and past attempts haven’t worked, a residential setting offers the structure and support you need to break the cycle.

What your stay includes
Supervised detox
When needed, withdrawal takes place under medical supervision so it is safe and as comfortable as possible.
Individual and group therapy
The heart of treatment. Sessions with psychologists to understand triggers, work through emotions and build the tools for a life free of substance use.
Minnesota Model approach
A comprehensive, multidisciplinary therapeutic approach that defines addiction as a primary, chronic and multifaceted disease, not simply a vice or a moral failing.
Spiritual support
Sessions that explore the deepest dimension of being human: the search for meaning, purpose and connection with yourself, with others and with a Higher Power, as each person understands it. This is not about religion; it’s about rediscovering what gives life meaning.
Dual diagnosis
Addiction rarely comes alone. We treat the depression, anxiety and trauma that are often at the root of substance use at the same time.
Certified nutrition
Balanced meals backed by the Distintivo H, the food-safety certification from Mexico’s Ministries of Tourism and Health, because restoring the body is also part of the process.
Families heal, too
Treatment includes the people around you
Addiction affects the whole family. That’s why we offer a specialized codependency program that supports family members during and after treatment.
Family programFrequently asked questions
How long does treatment last?
We offer 3- and 7-month residential programs, as well as outpatient therapy. After the initial assessment, we recommend the program that best fits the person based on the substance, length of use, physical and emotional health, and any history of previous treatment.
Can I visit my loved one?
Yes. Visits are part of the process and are scheduled according to the stage of treatment. Families also take part in their own program.
Do you treat people with anxiety, depression or trauma?
Yes. We take a dual diagnosis approach, treating mental health at the same time as the addiction.
Is my information confidential?
Absolutely. From the very first call, everything you share with us is handled in strict confidence.
Confidential consultation
Need to talk to someone?
