FAQs about rehab for Marbella and Costa del Sol residents
Is travelling from Marbella to England for rehab realistic?
Yes. Malaga Airport has regular flights to Birmingham, and the full journey to Charterhouse Clinic takes under four hours. A private transfer handles everything from arrivals to the estate. The team coordinates all travel arrangements in advance.
Why does Charterhouse Clinic's lead psychologist have a connection to Marbella?
Leticia, Charterhouse Clinic’s lead psychologist, grew up in Marbella. That background gives her a genuine understanding of the social dynamics of the Costa del Sol expat community, which directly shapes how therapeutic programmes are built for clients from this area.
How does treatment at Charterhouse Clinic stay confidential for Costa del Sol clients?
Nothing about your treatment is shared with anyone in Spain or elsewhere without your explicit written consent. Charterhouse Clinic is a discreet rehab where confidentiality is a standard part of how the clinic operates at every level.
What does a typical day look like at Charterhouse Clinic?
Mornings are structured around individual therapy. Afternoons include holistic therapies such as equine therapy, yoga, and mindfulness. Evenings are quieter and more personal. The programme is tailored to each client individually, so the balance of sessions shifts as treatment progresses.
How long would I need to be away from Marbella?
Most programmes run for 28 days. Longer stays are available where clinically appropriate. The team discusses the right length during your initial assessment so you can plan around your life on the Costa del Sol.
What aftercare support is available when I return to Marbella?
Before you leave, your clinical team prepares a structured aftercare plan built around your return to the Costa del Sol. This includes therapy referrals, relapse prevention strategies, and guidance on local support options. The plan accounts for the specific social environment you’re returning to.
Can family members based on the Costa del Sol be involved in treatment?
Yes. Family involvement is encouraged at the right stage of treatment. The clinical team guides the timing and can facilitate sessions in person or remotely, depending on what is most appropriate for your recovery.
