About The Dawn Rehab
The Dawn Wellness Centre and Rehab Thailand is one of Asia’s leading wellness treatment centres, set within a peaceful riverside sanctuary. The Dawn is currently the only residential treatment centre in Asia with international accreditation by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF).
Progressive Treatment Methods
The Dawn offers comprehensive treatment programmes for substance abuse and mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, using their innovative treatment roadmap, which ensures a holistic and personalised approach to recovery.
Treatment at The Dawn integrates a variety of evidence-based therapies including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy (TF-CBT), and dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT). Additionally, their wellness therapies incorporate activities such as yoga, meditation, massage therapy, and physical exercise, addressing both the psychological and physical aspects of addiction and mental health disorders. Their comprehensive approach provides clients with the tools needed for sustainable recovery and overall well-being.
Holistic, Trauma-Incorporating Approach
The Dawn’s holistic treatment approach addresses all factors contributing to clients’ current struggles, including underlying issues, past experiences, relationships, living environment, and their family dynamics. The Dawn specialises in treating unresolved trauma, an issue often underpinning addiction and mental illness.
A Boutique Rehab Where Big Changes Occur
The Dawn offers a warm, welcoming environment. Their staff are highly attuned to the individual needs of each client, looking not only at the issue that brings them to The Dawn, but who they are and their life as a whole. The Dawn’s multidisciplinary team of Western-trained therapists is fully versed in the most current treatment techniques, and with a low client-to-staff ratio, they’re able to focus their full attention on what works best for each client. A 24-hour on-site nursing team supports clients during detox and their residential care, ensuring safety and comfort.
The Dawn’s Life-Changing Mental Health Retreat in Thailand
The Dawn has a dedicated mental health program that is separate from their addiction program, for those struggling with mental health issues not related to addiction. For co-occurring disorders, The Dawn can move clients seamlessly between the two programs. They also offer transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy for medication-resistant conditions, an FDA approved technology.
The Dawn offers an Addiction Relapse Warranty policy. It ensures that anyone who completes 12 weeks of treatment for drug or alcohol addiction can come back for an additional 28 days of residential treatment, at no additional cost, if they relapse within one year.

Who We Treat
Treatment Services
Detox
Detox fully and safely removes toxic substances from the body, allowing the next steps in treatment to begin with a clean slate.
Residential
In a residential rehab program, patients live onsite, with access to daily treatment and 24-hour care. An average stay is 30-90 days.
Sober Living
These structured living environments help people transition out of rehab. Residents have more freedom than they do during rehab, but still follow certain rules.
Approaches
Evidence-Based
A combination of scientifically rooted therapies and treatments make up evidence-based care, defined by their measured and proven results.
Holistic
A non-medicinal, wellness-focused approach that aims to align the mind, body, and spirit for deep and lasting healing.
Individual Treatment
Individual care meets the needs of each patient, using personalized treatment to provide them the most relevant care and greatest chance of success.
Wellness
Wellness philosophies focus on the physical, mental, and spiritual wellness of each patient, helping them restore purpose with natural remedies.
Therapies
1-on-1 Counseling
Patient and therapist meet 1-on-1 to work through difficult emotions and behavioral challenges in a personal, private setting.
Meditation & Mindfulness
A practiced state of mind that brings patients to the present. It allows them to become fully aware of themselves, their feelings, and the present moment.
Art Therapy
Visual art invites patients to examine the emotions within their work, focusing on the process of creativity and its gentle therapeutic power.
Experiential Therapy
With this approach, patients heal by doing. Therapists help patients process difficult emotions to speak, using guided activities like art or dance.
Eye Movement Therapy (EMDR)
Lateral, guided eye movements help reduce the emotional reactions of retelling and reprocessing trauma, allowing intense feelings to dissipate.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
Combined with behavioral therapy, prescribed medications can enhance treatment by relieving withdrawal symptoms and focus patients on their recovery.
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy
MBCT combines mindfulness practices—like meditation—with cognitive therapy techniques to help patients work through negative thought patterns.
