Confidential Residential Mental Health & Trauma-Informed Care Abroad
This page is intended for individuals, families, and professional referrers connected to Israel who are considering confidential residential mental health or addiction care abroad, followed by structured aftercare and long-term continuity of care.
At THE BALANCE, we support clients from Israel who are seeking a neutral, private, and clinically governed treatment environment, often outside their immediate social, professional, or cultural context. Care is delivered through international residential treatment, combined with structured continuity of care adapted to complex and highly demanding lives.
WHY SOME CLIENTS CONNECTED TO ISRAEL SEEK CARE ABROAD
Israel has a highly developed medical and mental health system. However, individuals and families may seek residential care abroad when they require greater discretion, distance, and therapeutic containment than is possible within their immediate environment.
Common reasons include:
- high personal, professional, or public visibility
- cumulative stress and long-term nervous system overload
- trauma-related or stress-related conditions requiring intensive containment
- co-occurring mental health and addiction presentations
- the need for privacy when engaging in residential care
- preference for a neutral, non-local setting to support deeper therapeutic work
For many, travelling abroad allows for psychological distance and emotional safety, enabling more effective engagement in treatment.
A STRUCTURED INTERNATIONAL CARE MODEL
THE BALANCE operates a centralised international care model, designed to support clients across borders while maintaining strict clinical governance and confidentiality. Care pathways for clients connected to Israel typically include:
1. Confidential Pre-Admission Assessment
Initial conversations are conducted remotely and discreetly. These discussions focus on clinical suitability, personal context, and whether residential treatment abroad is appropriate.
2. Residential Treatment at THE BALANCE
Residential care is delivered at one of our European locations through individualised or small-group programs, supported by multidisciplinary clinical teams.
3. Planned Aftercare & Continuity of Care
Aftercare is structured from the outset and may include online psychotherapy, psychiatric follow-up, family work, and coordination with trusted professionals. Care is adapted to:
- international travel and mobility
- professional and family responsibilities
- time-zone considerations
- long-term stability rather than short-term symptom relief
RESIDENTIAL CARE LOCATIONS
Clients connected to Israel typically attend residential treatment at one of the following THE BALANCE locations:
- Switzerland
- United Kingdom
- Spain (Mallorca or Marbella)
Location selection is guided by clinical needs, discretion requirements, and individual or family preferences. All locations provide non-institutional, residential environments designed to support safety, privacy, and recovery.
TRAUMA-INFORMED & COMPLEX CARE
Many clients connected to Israel present with complex, layered, or long-standing stress and trauma-related patterns, often alongside high functional capacity. Our clinical approach is:
- trauma-informed
- nervous-system-focused
- integrative and multidisciplinary
- paced to respect resilience and autonomy
Treatment focuses on regulation, integration, and long-term stability, rather than crisis management alone.
FAMILY, SYSTEMIC & PROFESSIONAL CONTEXTS
Clients and families connected to Israel often navigate:
- strong family systems and intergenerational dynamics
- leadership or responsibility-heavy roles
- high expectations of performance and resilience
- international mobility
Our teams work with sensitivity to:
- family involvement where appropriate
- systemic stressors
- professional reintegration
- clear therapeutic boundaries
Care is delivered with discretion, respect, and clarity.
AFTERCARE & CONTINUITY OF CARE
Continuity of care is a central component of treatment. Aftercare for clients returning to Israel or continuing international travel may include:
- ongoing online psychotherapy or psychiatric support
- structured nervous system regulation and stress management
- family or couples sessions conducted remotely
- coordination with existing clinicians or trusted professionals
Aftercare intensity is adjusted over time, supporting sustainable reintegration.
CONFIDENTIALITY, PRIVACY & CLINICAL GOVERNANCE
THE BALANCE operates with:
- strict confidentiality protocols

Client identities are never disclosed publicly. THE BALANCE does not operate local clinics or representative offices in Israel.
