Our treatments are outpatient and take place at our centre in Las Palmas. In most cases we treat addictions without hospitalisation, combining therapy with work, studies and family life, at a much lower cost.
Treatment takes place in individual sessions with the therapist, with high levels of effectiveness, flexibility and confidentiality. You are always seen by the same professional: the therapeutic alliance is the cornerstone of our method.
