Natalie or Parice will help guide and support you through the process of getting to Hope. Important reading when “Choosing a Rehab in Thailand”
We are offering discounts on longer treatment packages due to financial issues caused by the Covid crisis for many of our clients – This offer will only last until we are at maximum capacity. Our admissions team will help you get here. Use the contact form on this page and Natalie or Parice will be in touch. Thailand has reopened to international visitors now and can be organized easily online before traveling. Our location in Thailand on the coast is an ideal, healthy, safe and secluded place to be due to our tropical sunny climate.
Doctors and Therapists referring clients should contact [email protected] with client details to confirm eligibility criteria. NOTE: To keep our rates as low as possible we do not pay referral fees to third party agencies or referral websites. Read more here….
To join Hope Rehab some clients start with online support and preparation until they can get to Hope Rehab in Thailand. Don’t be afraid the technology is simple, and the counsellors will guide you all the way. If you have any questions about how online counselling works, don’t hesitate to get in touch. You will look forward and enjoy the sessions and build a relationship with your counsellor before you get to Hope. Go to our online Services page here…
Please Note: Using our latest online help that we are providing is not meant to replace or substitute actually being at Hope Rehab itself for detox and treatment. Hope Rehab is where you experience the powerful realizations and unity working together as a group, learning to work as a team, or the face-to-face intimate relationship with your counsellor. Part of what makes Hope one of the best treatment centers is our secure environment and unique atmosphere, the Thai culture, the diverse team, the facility and accommodation, the food, sharing the everyday lessons learned by living in our community, also all our many recourses and much much more…we do understand this! — However, our online program that we have (initially used for aftercare) now also used for pre-Rehab preparation due to delays in getting here is working very well and is now part of our package.
To request treatment rates please fill in the Contact Form on this page. The cost of treatment is calculated according to length of stay. We understand cost is a significant factor for our clients and families, so we keep our rates as low as we can without compromising quality and clinical safety. Once we arrange your booking you pay a deposit to secure your place. After you arrive you will then have three days to decide if you are comfortable before paying the balance. Typically, Hope costs less than a third of the cost of rehabs in western countries. We have no hidden costs, only a little spending money for personal effects. For more details about our rates and treatment options read our what’s included page.
Yes we are currently offering all-inclusive 8 and 12 week discounted packages. This is to encourage the longest possible commitment for your success in recovery. In addition, we have recently built new rooms in our advanced facility so will offer special rates for longer term 3-month programs. Let us know if no detox or medication supervision is required as we may be able to reduce the cost further.
Unfortunately, we have no information regarding public funding, or charitable scholarships that will pay for addiction treatment in Thailand for foreigners. However, we would encourage you to seek funding for treatment in your home country.
Hope has a clear Refund policy that we suggest you read via the link below. The booking deposit/Fee is non-refundable to cover our costs (except cancelation due to current global health issues). Rehabs must have strong boundaries regarding easy-refunds as clients could create chaos by leaving treatment every time they have a strong craving. Read our fair but strict refund policy here
Hope offers 30-day intensive treatment programs as well as long-stay options; that is to say we pack a lot of activities into each month. We recommend that you stay as long as possible for the best chance of long-term recovery. Some drugs, such as opiates and benzo’s, require a minimum 2-month commitment due to a longer Detox period. This is why Hope has developed an Advanced Program. Addiction isn’t conquered overnight. For most, it took time to develop the habits and behaviours that feed addiction, so it stands to reason that it will take time to change. A simple detox or quick fix is a “flight to health” and rarely achieves lasting results. Hope Rehab Stats and info….
Yes, Hope Rehab has a minimum commitment requirement of 30 days so most clients start with a month but many decide to stay longer. The typical length of primary treatment programs are traditionally between 4 and 8 weeks depending on your motivation. Many of our clients stay at Hope for 3 months which is an optimal period to embed new behaviours in place of old behaviours. Read more about treatment timeframes here
Once you have completed the two-month primary treatment at Hope Rehab, it is then possible to join our advanced rehab program. The advanced program has its own 15 bed cosy facility by the sea opposite the main centre. Here you build upon the foundation of basic treatment. Some ex-clients may get to volunteer at Hope Rehab depending on availability and suitability.
If you wish to remain in Thailand long-term, there is also the option of joining our 10 bed Third-stage Sober house in Bang Saray not far away from our main facility. This is where you can begin to experience a more normal life while still having the full support of a recovery community. Clients in third-stage sober-house treatment can choose options such as doing a TEFL course to teach English or volunteer work. email [email protected]
After you have decided to join the Hope program, and you have paid the deposit to secure your place, it is time to arrange your flight. Fly to Bangkok’s international airport ‘Suvarnabhumi’ airport code BKK, and we will meet you in the arrivals hall. Hope Rehab is situated one hour from Bangkok airport on the coast. Long haul international flights are reasonably priced today, especially to Bangkok. Research shows flights are cheaper on weekdays. We recommend taking a direct flight if possible. Once you have booked the flights, forward the confirmation email to our admissions team. Our staff will meet you at ‘Meeting point one’ in the arrivals hall and drive you straight to Hope.
Our program is all inclusive and we do not have any hidden costs, however, you will need a little spending money (a few dollars per week for personal effects, cigarettes and maybe shopping on a local market). Pocket money can be transferred via Hope’s account as we do not recommend bringing significant amounts of cash with you.
Thailand is a country that can be visited all year round, particularly in our area. We have the most number of sunny and dry days with the occasional refreshing tropical shower that keeps a healthy balance. So bring your swimwear and a personal beach towel for weekend Island trips.
Thailand is a safe country to visit and has wonderful cheap local healthcare. Our location ‘Sriracha’ is unaffected by current global health scares and an ideal safe secluded alternative place to be until it calms down. Most clients take out tourist & travel health insurance which is inexpensive and wise should you get ill or have an accident while in Thailand (Hope Rehab does not cover these eventualities) Otherwise you will need to bring all medications that you are prescribed, fitness and gym clothing, swim wear and beach towel, and light clothing for a hot climate. Go to our What to Bring page this will help you plan your trip. All rooms and accommodation are designed for single occupancy with shower and internet access. Hope is restricted as regards the physically impaired, disabled and with Mobility issues. The facility is on a mountain side and we have an emphasis on offsite fitness activities.
Most visitors to Thailand get a 30 day visa-on-arrival at the immigration desk in the airport. This can be automatically extended for another 30 days at our local immigration office. Thereafter clients take a drive to the land boarder to get a new 30 day visa-on-arrival that can also be extended.
Watching a family member, loved one or friend struggle with addiction is painful and can feel overwhelming at times. Substance abuse might be the toughest challenge your family ever faces. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that a lot of the phone calls we receive at Hope Rehab are on behalf of a dear one. Our team is experienced in offering you advice and guidance on how best help your son/daughter/mother/father/husband/wife or friend. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us for a free consultation. We also created a FAMILY GUIDE with comprehensive information on addiction in general and why it’s a family disease, how to spot symptoms, what you can do, things to avoid and where to get help & support.

Hope is a safe place for everyone including women. Hope’s clients come from all walks of life, sexuality, gender, culture and age groups. This is important for a realistic environment. Think of the group as an extended family where you can learn from each other. However we understand some women face unique challenges in overcoming addiction issues. At Hope we have many female counsellors and provide Woman’s recovery groups and activities. Research indicates that women are especially vulnerable to victimization and trauma especially as part of the consequences of addiction.

There are many good reasons to choose Hope Rehab in Thailand, indeed we are widely acknowledged to be one of the best rehabs in the world, and the best value rehab to be found anywhere. It is important to note that Hope Rehab is not only fully licensed by the Thai Ministry of Health but also an affiliate member of FDAP (Federation of Drug and Alcohol practitioners UK) and NAADAC (association of addiction professionals US) and accredited by APCB (Asia Pacific certification board) and our therapeutic team are FDAP registered practitioners.

At Hope many clients report some sort of traumatic experience or significant painful event in their lives. These events tend to affect and influence their lives and addictions or self-medicating. At Hope we validate all traumatic experiences. We treat veterans, abuse victims, clients with troubling childhoods, grief, physical injury, and anything that has a lasting impact. Customizing your rehab treatment to include specific trauma therapy sessions is proven to help. Even simply living in our community and socializing rather than isolating and feeling alone with these issues. Trauma usually triggers a human’s natural defense mechanisms known as the fight or flight response. We then lock on to the threat or our escape route and/or survival method. This can cause long term changes in behavior that need addressing or they become self defeating. Read our post on Trauma and Addiction in Women here…
Hope is uniquely situated with beautiful quiet beaches all around us. We take full advantage of our special location and spend weekends either at Secret beach or on the island of Koh Srichang for recovery meetings, lunch and fun. This wonderful island is a short ferry ride in the middle of the Bay of Thailand. It has a slow pace taking you back to old Thailand with its rustic charm and lack of development. We visit Temples as well as the Beaches. The multi-level cave temple perched high on the cliff with breathtaking views with a cute funicular train taking you to the top if you don’t fancy the walk. The local monks will be happy to show you around and offer you a blessing. Follow this link for more information about Activities and Excursions follow and follow this link for information about Koh Si Chang beach excursions and things to see on the Island.
Residential Rehab is proven to be the best way to manage alcohol or drug problems. Whether you want to stop drinking, or stop anything, whether you identify as an addict or not, or you are experiencing difficulty’s coping with issues such as stress, depression and anxiety. Residential Rehab gives you the breathing space and support needed to heal and to learn the skills necessary to remain sober. In-patient Detox is the safest way to stop using alcohol while avoiding being overwhelmed with triggers and cravings while at your most vulnerable. Alcohol affects the central nervous system and acts as a depressant like many sedative medications. It releases Endorphins in the brain with an opiate like effect, triggering a pain response and a euphoric buzz. So when detoxing surges of anxiety and emotional turbulence are common, this is why residential treatment is preferable to home detox.
Welcome to Hope Rehab’s Alcohol Addiction program in Thailand. Many clients who attend Hope’s program come due to their alcohol or drinking issues. The clients come from all over the world and from all age groups. Hope offers a safe and comfortable environment to address this issue and overcome the challenges associated with alcoholism. Recognising and accepting you have an alcohol problem is the first step to the solution, so well done and we hope this website about alcohol rehab treatment in Thailand will help.
Alcoholism, or alcohol addiction and alcohol-use-disorder, are all terms used by Doctors, whether binge-drinking or alcohol dependence. Alcohol problems can sneak up on you and can develop progressively in response to difficult life events. The most successful program known to treat all levels of alcohol addiction is the holistic approach incorporating many elements and therapies which you will find listed on our program page. One tip to ensure alcoholism and alcohol addiction treatment is successful is to put all worries about the future aside, especially about whether or not you can drink ever again, as it gets in the way of treatment. Major decisions like these can be dealt with later. Read more!
Welcome to Hope Rehabs Drug addiction program. At Hope we have created the optimal program to address all the various elements of this destructive condition, giving you the best chance for recovery. You know you are addicted when you cannot stop doing something that is hurting you. For an addict using drugs is like “going back to the problem for the solution” again and again. Destructive and unhealthy behaviours of drug addiction are symptoms of the condition not the disease itself. The state of addiction is not the same as the state of intoxication or even physical dependency from self-medicating. Addiction is a disease of compulsion and reward and best treated as such. The healing process starts at the point of accepting this and that serious help is required.
When searching for a Rehab for drug addiction, it is important to understand that rehabs differ in what they are capable of offering you. It is also important when considering any program that you figure out if the right support is available. Coming to Thailand is surprisingly practical, it is relatively easy to arrange with air travel cost at an all time low, getting to Bangkok is very cheap. Also, you are likely to get a bed when you need it. Thailand is the obvious choice for an international rehab because of our high-quality rehab program available at an affordable price. Read more!
Yes, we provide and include medication assisted alcohol detox and opiate replacement & reduction detox, however Benzo detox takes much longer is offered at an addition cost due to multiple doctor visits. Senior team member Paul Garrigan is a registered nurse specializing in addiction working in partnership with our local private Hospital who provide all medical services which is only a few minutes away from Hope’s facility. We keep you comfortable and safe with 24/7 care and support while achieving recovery. The Hope facility is staffed 24 hours a day. More medical and detox information can be obtained during your telephone assessment before enrolling in the program.
The safety and well-being of clients is our top priority. New arrivals who are at risk of serious withdrawal symptoms are closely monitored in our detox unit located in the main house. There is a high-quality hospital opposite just 5 minutes away by car in case of emergency. We work in partnership with the medical team at Samitivej Hospital to ensure that withdrawal symptoms are managed so that clients are not only kept safe but also as comfortable as possible.
Mobility issues: Hope is restricted as regards the physically impaired, disabled or acute physical health issues that make moving around difficult. The Hope facility is located on a mountain side and we focus a lot on fitness activities and weekend off-site excusions.
At Hope we do not offer a Detox only service because Just a detox, also known as the acute phase of treatment, is unlikely to be a lasting answer for anyone, in fact it can often create more harm than good. It can lead to disappointment, denial and physical punishment. Medical Detox is helpful, but it needs to be combined with talk therapy and lifestyle change. Also, humans become tolerant to all drugs/medication so a sustainable long-term solution must be found. Read more!
Most of the clients who attend Hope Rehab suffer from depression and/or anxiety. Both are common experiences for most human beings at some point in their lives. Anxiety and stress are common feelings shared by addicts and alcoholics. Stress can suck all the joy out of living. It creates a feeling of apprehension and it can lead to depression, hopelessness, and despair. Some of us turned to alcohol or drugs in an attempt to deal with this discomfort, but this only made things worse. At Hope, we use the combined powers of our skilled counsellors and the healing therapeutic community as well as the tools available through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and our mindfulness program to help individuals manage this more effectively.
At Hope we practice a holistic approach. That means we look at the whole person and that often also includes Depression, Anxiety issues, Trauma, PTSD, ADHD, dyslexia, self-medication, childhood struggles alongside the addiction. Doctors often refer to this as ‘concurrent disorders’ or ‘dual diagnosis’.
We do not have a Psychiatrist onsite at Hope and we are not a substitute for a Psychiatric clinic. However psychiatric support is offered in partnership with Samitivej Hospital opposite the rehab (mainly used for medication prescriptions) which is just 5 minutes away by car. Hope Rehab Thailand would not be an appropriate choice for anyone who requires 24-hour on-site monitoring by a psychiatrist. To understand what we can treat and what we cannot treat and why, see our Dual diagnosis page
Our clients come from UK, Hong Kong, New York, London, Singapore, Asia, Australia, USA, Canada, Europe, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Denmark – just to name a few. Read our Testimonial page – they all share the same common goal: to recover and find a solution to their difficulties. We also get a mix of all age groups, sexes, cultures, professions, and substances which make for a realistic and interesting experience and therapeutic community.
Most of our guests choose the one month option to begin with. However, the majority decide to stay longer. It took time, to develop the habits that feed your dependence, and it will take time to change. A simple detox or quick fix cannot achieve lasting results. If you decide to stay longer you will be able to move into our Advance program and Sober House. Options include teaching English locally (TEFL) to Thai children and voluntary work. We have found that this is a profound way to grow and change.
At Hope we believe rehab aftercare is important. Our Rehab aftercare is designed to keep you connected to both Hope Rehab Thailand and your Counsellor after leaving treatment. Our program will introduce all clients to different types of support groups that exist in most parts of the world. This will help prevent relapse.
