A structured, clinically governed approach to cross-border residential treatment

At THE BALANCE, international care is not an add-on or special case. It is a core clinical model, designed to support individuals and families whose lives, responsibilities, and care needs span countries and jurisdictions.

We provide centralised residential treatment, followed by structured continuity of care, for clients who seek privacy, neutrality, and long-term stability beyond their local environment.

WHO THIS IS FOR

International care pathways are designed for:

  • individuals living outside their country of origin
  • UHNW families with cross-border lives
  • professionals and public figures requiring discretion
  • clients whose treatment needs exceed what local outpatient care can provide
  • families seeking a neutral setting for complex situations

Care is always individualised and clinically indicated.

A CENTRALised INTERNATIONAL MODEL

THE BALANCE operates a centralised care model, rather than a network of disconnected local clinics.

This means:

  • residential treatment takes place at a limited number of carefully governed locations
  • clinical standards are consistent across regions
  • treatment philosophy and governance remain unified
  • aftercare is planned globally, not locally improvised

International care is coordinated, not fragmented.

HOW INTERNATIONAL CARE WORKS

1. Confidential Pre-Admission Assessment

Initial discussions are conducted remotely and discreetly. Suitability, timing, and intensity are assessed carefully.

2. Residential Treatment

Clients attend residential treatment at one of our locations in Switzerland, the United Kingdom, or Spain.

3. Transitional & Outpatient Phases

Where clinically indicated, care may continue through:

  • Intensive Outpatient & Transitional Care at a THE BALANCE hub
  • structured international aftercare

4. Long-Term Continuity of Care

Aftercare is adapted to:

  • home country
  • travel patterns
  • professional and family responsibilities

Continuity is prioritised over speed.

GEOGRAPHIC CARE PATHWAYS

International care is organised through regional and country-specific pathways, reflecting how clients actually live and travel. These currently include:

Each pathway provides context-specific guidance while operating within the same clinical framework.

CONFIDENTIALITY & CLINICAL GOVERNANCE

International care at THE BALANCE is delivered within:

  • strict confidentiality protocols
  • informed consent frameworks
  • clear clinical responsibility
  • secure communication systems

We do not operate through brokers or intermediaries.
