Common questions
Who is Haven for?
Haven is for adults aged 17 and over who are working through trauma, anxiety, depression, dependency or behaviour that is holding them back. Every programme is shaped around the person, and there are never more than six clients in the house.
Where is Haven?
Programmes take place at a private villa in the mountains near Frigiliana, in Málaga province, about 45 minutes from Málaga Airport. The exact address is shared in person after your assessment.
Why are the assessments in Limerick?
We meet you twice in person in Limerick, Ireland, before you travel. This lets us get to know you, plan your programme together and make sure Haven is right for you before you go to Spain.
How long are the programmes?
Programmes run for 7 days, 14 days, 1 month or 3 months. We help you decide which length suits you at your assessment.
How much does a programme cost?
Programmes start at €1,250 for 7 days in a shared room, or €1,700 with a private ensuite. The first assessment is €350 and the second is €250. Full prices are on our programmes page.
What is included?
Accommodation in the villa, breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper, airport transfer from Málaga, counsellor sessions, trauma therapy twice a week, and individual and group psychotherapy including CBT, DBT, ACT and Motivational Interviewing. Flights are not included.
How do I pay?
All payments are by bank transfer. Half of the programme fee is paid at your second assessment, and the balance is paid the day before your flight to Málaga.
Can my family be involved?
Yes. A family member can be present at your first assessment, and family involvement with regular updates is part of how we work.
When does the first programme start?
The first programme begins on 7 February 2027. Places are limited to six.
