About Sapphire Recovery

At Sapphire Recovery, healing is both a process and a transformation, just like the sapphire itself. Specialising in substance and behavioural addictions—including gambling, pornography, and technology overuse— their dual-diagnosis approach supports clients in addressing the emotional pain beneath the symptoms. With residential care ranging from 28-90 days—with flexibility for longer stays when needed. With a maximum of just 5 guests at a time, each person receives highly personalised attention in a luxurious setting that allows space to reflect and rebuild.
At Sapphire, treatment is not just about abstinence. Their approach meets each client exactly where they are, honouring the full complexity of addiction and mental health with precision and compassion. Every individual receives deeply personalised care addressing the root cause of their suffering. Therapies include one-on-one and group psychotherapy, trauma-informed care, yoga, meditation, massages, and equine therapy. Days are grounded in routine and reflection, blending structure with space for joy and connection.
The surroundings at Sapphire are as restorative as the care clients receive. Each guest enjoys the privacy and peace of their own room. Their boutique setting, limited to just 5 guests, creates a sense of safety and personalised care. Beyond their rooms, clients find tranquil gardens, inviting communal spaces, and nourishing chef-prepared meals. Weekends offer more than rest, with group outings to beaches, nature trails, or even Movie World and paragliding adventures.
