About Holina Youth Village Cyprus
Holina Youth Village is an immersive residential program for teens and young adults facing emotional and behavioral health challenges—including addiction, self-harm, anxiety, isolation, and more. With stays ranging from one to six months or longer, their holistic approach blends therapeutic care, personal growth, and education within a safe, English-speaking community. Clients from Europe, the Middle East, and beyond rebuild their lives through structured support and a strong therapeutic culture.
Holina takes a holistic approach that addresses the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs of each young person. Alongside cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), they use a range of evidence-based modalities that support emotional regulation, motivation, and behavior change. Creative therapies—including equine therapy, art, music, and adventure-based challenges—offer additional outlets for healing, connection, and self-expression. Ongoing counseling and check-ins support long-term success.
Set on a therapeutic farm just 30 minutes from Larnaca Airport, Holina offers safe and contained accommodations. En-suite, air-conditioned rooms, fresh farm produce, and animal care support healing in a beautiful, contained environment. Clients enjoy orchards, quad bikes, a pool, and year-round sunshine.

Holina offers family therapy for adolescents and young adults to rebuild trust, improve communication, and strengthen bonds. Held on weekends from the second month, sessions take place in group and private settings. With scheduled visits only, they foster connection while maintaining structure—recognizing that recovery thrives when family is actively engaged in healing.
Adventure-based therapy is integral to Holina’s recovery process, helping clients build emotional resilience, confidence, and teamwork. Through hiking, equine therapy, and team-building challenges, clients reconnect with nature and themselves. These outdoor experiences promote mindfulness, growth, and self-discovery—fostering lifelong skills in a setting that encourages both physical and emotional healing.
Holina’s therapeutic community model creates a supportive environment where clients take responsibility for their recovery while uplifting one another. Through group therapy, shared challenges, and peer accountability, they foster emotional healing, trust, and connection. This community-based approach helps clients overcome addiction and trauma together—building the foundation for lasting personal growth and recovery.
