Mental Health Treatment in Spain: Private One-to-One Care at Oasis

Mental Health Treatment in Spain: Private, One-to-One Care With Depth

Oasis Premium Recovery provides private, one-to-one mental health treatment inside a calm residence in Southern Spain. We stabilise first, then sequence targeted therapies with senior-led continuity. This guide explains our approach in depth, with detailed sections on anxiety and depression, and how our therapies are delivered so change holds when you return home.

Who This Helps

Adults who want senior attention, privacy, and precise pacing. It suits clients who do not benefit from groups, need private meals for anxiety or eating work, hold public roles, or have complex presentations where exposure to busy environments is counterproductive. If substance use overlaps with mental health symptoms, we integrate both inside one plan. See Dual Diagnosis Treatment and our Addiction Treatment hub.

Our Clinical Approach

We use a simple order of operations that reduces overwhelm and improves outcomes:

  1. Stabilise sleep, meals, hydration, and device boundaries so capacity rises.
  2. Formulate the problem together in plain language. What maintains it, what blocks change, what to target first.
  3. Sequence therapy. Begin with skills that unlock the most change safely. Add depth only when you have the bandwidth.
  4. Generalise skills into daily life. We write decisions in advance and rehearse high risk moments.
  5. Protect gains with scheduled Lifetime Aftercare and ongoing support.

Care is delivered one-to-one by a senior-led team. Compare settings and privacy on One-to-One Therapy Spain, Why Private Therapy Spain, and Spain treatment centres.


Anxiety Treatment In Detail

We treat the real patterns that make anxiety stick: threat scanning, avoidance, reassurance seeking, and sleep loss. Anxiety reduces when your brain learns that approach is safe and workable, not when you win every argument with worry. We combine exposure with skills that make approach tolerable.

Common Presentations

  • Generalised anxiety: persistent worry, mental rehearsal, muscle tension, irritability, and fatigue.
  • Social anxiety: fear of scrutiny, safety behaviours, over-preparation, and post-event rumination.
  • Panic: rapid spikes of fear with bodily sensations misread as danger, leading to avoidance of triggers.
  • Health anxiety: checking, reassurance cycles, and internet spirals that amplify fear.
  • Phobias: discrete triggers such as flying, heights, or injections that restrict life and work.

How We Treat Anxiety

Stabilise first, then teach your brain new predictions through safe, targeted approach.

  • CBT for anxiety (CBT): map triggers, predictions, and behaviours. Replace reassurance and avoidance with exposure tasks that are achievable and repeated.
  • Exposure: graded, frequent, and brief to begin with. We focus on inhibitory learning so your brain updates danger beliefs through experience.
  • DBT skills (DBT): emotion regulation and distress tolerance so you can stay with discomfort without quitting.
  • ACT (ACT): values-led actions on days when anxiety is loud. We separate willingness from liking, so progress is possible even when comfort is not guaranteed.
  • Breathing and body work: slow exhale emphasis, functional breathing, gentle movement, and TRE to lower baseline arousal.

What Exposure Looks Like Here

Exposure is not pushing you into the deep end. It is a series of small, repeatable experiments:

  1. Choose a specific feared cue and a measurable action.
  2. Agree a short duration and a clear stop point.
  3. Drop safety behaviours during the task so the learning is clean.
  4. Repeat until anxiety halves and confidence grows.

We apply the same structure for social events, presentations, flights, or medical procedures. Results are recorded so you can see progress and carry it home.


Depression Treatment In Detail

Depression narrows life, drains energy, and disrupts sleep and decision making. It is maintained by reduced activity, reduced reward, rumination, and isolation. We treat the whole loop: rhythm, behaviour, thinking traps, and meaning. The aim is not constant positivity. It is a week that reliably contains purpose, connection, and recovery.

Common Presentations

  • Low mood with loss of interest, fatigue, and reduced concentration.
  • Sleep disruption with early waking or oversleeping that still feels unrefreshing.
  • Appetite and weight changes, slowed movement, or restlessness.
  • Self-criticism and rumination that masquerade as problem solving.
  • Co-occurring anxiety or substance use that complicates recovery.

How We Treat Depression

  • Behavioural activation within your energy budget. We design a week that mixes mastery, pleasure, and connection. Tasks are small, specific, and logged so momentum is visible.
  • CBT for depression (CBT): identify thinking styles like all or nothing or mind reading. Test predictions with brief experiments rather than long debates with your thoughts.
  • ACT (ACT): strengthen values and make room for difficult feelings so action is possible. We use simple, repeatable defusion techniques.
  • IPT (IPT): address role transitions, grief, or conflict patterns that maintain low mood. We practise skills you can use in live conversations.
  • Sleep restoration: fixed wake time, morning light, caffeine windows, and an evening wind-down you can keep at home. See Insomnia Treatment.
  • Body-based regulation: TRE, mindful mobility, and gentle aerobic work to lift energy without crash cycles.

Rumination Versus Problem Solving

We teach clear tests to spot unhelpful thinking loops. If you are going over the same ground, predicting disaster, or arguing with yourself without new information, that is rumination. We move to a five minute problem definition, list options, choose the next helpful step, and schedule a review rather than keeping the conversation open all day.


Therapies We Use In Depth

Every programme is one-to-one. We combine targeted modalities with body-based and creative work so learning sticks.

  • CBT: collaborative maps of triggers, thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. Behavioural experiments replace assumptions. For anxiety we prioritise exposure and dropping safety behaviours. For depression we emphasise activation and rumination control.
  • DBT skills: emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. We build a short, personalised skills set you can deploy within minutes, not hours.
  • ACT: values clarification, defusion, willingness, and committed action. You practise acting like the person you want to be for five minutes at a time, not waiting until you feel different.
  • IPT: structure for grief, role changes, and relationship strain. We prepare for real conversations and follow up on outcomes.
  • ERP for OCD: exposure with response prevention and an inhibitory learning focus. Mental compulsions are addressed directly. See OCD Treatment.
  • Body-based regulation: TRE, functional breathing, yoga therapy, and outdoor integration to reduce baseline arousal.
  • Creative and relational: art therapy, dance and movement, and family therapy where appropriate.

If substance patterns are present we integrate MET to resolve ambivalence and add specific relapse prevention skills. Optional private 12-Step counselling can be blended without group exposure.


Related Conditions We Often Treat Alongside


Sleep And Nervous System Regulation

Sleep is treatment. We follow a simple, evidence-aligned protocol you can keep at home:

  • Fixed wake time every day. Light within 30 minutes of waking. Gentle morning movement.
  • Caffeine window closed by early afternoon. Consistent meal timing that supports mood and energy.
  • Evening routine with staged lighting, device rules, and audio-only wind-down.

See Insomnia Treatment for details.

Daily Rhythm And Example Day

  • Morning: individual therapy and a short implementation block.
  • Midday: psychoeducation, calm outdoor time, and regulated meals.
  • Afternoon: targeted session such as CBT, DBT skills, ACT, IPT, or ERP. Exposure or behavioural experiments when ready.
  • Evening: wind-down routine, device boundaries, and sleep support.
