How we treat depression
We understand that living with depression can feel overwhelming and isolating, and while we can’t predict exactly what your four-week stay will involve, we ensure that every step of your treatment journey is uniquely tailored to your needs. At Paracelsus Recovery, no two patients follow the same path. Each client receives a bespoke treatment plan, designed specifically for them, with each day carefully structured to incorporate a range of therapies.
These therapies work in harmony to address all aspects of your health, from physical to emotional and psychological, offering you the best chance for recovery. While the process can be challenging, our holistic approach provides the support and tools needed to help you navigate through it.
We also provide support for treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Learn more about TRD treatment.
Our approach considers the whole person: mind, body and soul
At Paracelsus Recovery, we reject the ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Instead, we create a personalised treatment programme tailored to your specific needs. While we integrate cutting-edge therapies and holistic care, it is your individual experience with depression and any co-occurring conditions that guide our work together.
Our 360-degree approach combines advanced medical interventions and intensive psychotherapy. Each treatment plan is developed through extensive testing to uncover the underlying causes of your depression. We offer a range of treatments, including medication when appropriate, and incorporate innovative therapies such as rTMS (repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) and psychedelic-assisted therapy, which have shown promising results in treating depression. Additionally, psychotherapeutic approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) address the emotional and psychological dimensions of your condition.
With your unique needs at the forefront, we ensure a comprehensive, personalised treatment plan that addresses all aspects of your well-being, supporting your recovery and long-term mental health.
15+ team members, all dedicated to your health and well-being
Our team is made up of world-renowned doctors, therapists, and specialists, including a Nobel Prize-winning board member. This dedicated team of more than 15 professionals will support you during your entire stay with us. A live-in therapist will also be available for emotional support 24/7 from when you arrive to when you leave.
From the moment you arrive until your departure, your live-in therapist will be by your side, providing guidance, reassurance, and a consistent presence to help you navigate through the challenges of depression. In addition, you will have a dedicated psychiatrist who will manage your psychotherapeutic and medical care, ensuring the right balance of medication and treatment. Intensive psychotherapy, including personalised sessions with both specialist therapists and your psychiatrist, will address the emotional and psychological aspects of your depression, empowering you to make meaningful progress on your path to recovery.
Comprehensive programmes as unique as you are
Each of our treatment programmes is carefully curated to each client’s specific set of needs. Those needs may be physical and psychological, e.g. if our team identifies nutritional deficiencies or signs of addiction during the assessment period, your programme would be shaped with these in mind. However, those needs can be practical too, such as when a client needs to work or travel during their stay at our rehab for depression.
We can provide treatment for depression & any co-occurring mental health conditions at our private treatment centre in Zurich.
