Stories of Recovery


Cherrywood House

“The team at Cherrywood House treated me with dignity and respect from the very first moment. The three one-on-one counselling sessions per week made all the difference. The intimate setting with only a handful of other clients meant I could focus entirely on my recovery without feeling lost in a crowd.” Anonymous Client

“I was terrified to ask for help, but from the moment I arrived, the team made me feel safe. The combination of world-class therapy and the beautiful Constantia surroundings created a space where I could finally begin to heal. I am now 18 months into my recovery, and I owe so much to this incredible team.” Anonymous Client


Anker Huis

“Peter and the team at Anker Huis helped me understand why I was in pain, not just what I was doing to cope with it. The root-cause approach changed everything for me. For the first time, I understood the why behind my addiction, and that understanding has been the foundation of my recovery.” Anonymous Client

“As a Dutch client, I was nervous about receiving treatment so far from home. But the Dutch-speaking clinicians at Anker Huis immediately put me at ease, and the standard of care exceeded anything I had experienced in Europe. The concierge team handled every detail of my travel, and my family were kept informed throughout.” Anonymous European Client


Villa Consano & International Clients

  • Villa Consano: “I never thought of myself as someone with an addiction. Villa Consano’s specialist approach to prescription medication dependency helped me understand what had happened and gave me a safe, structured path to freedom. The therapists were compassionate, knowledgeable, and never once made me feel judged.” Anonymous Client
  • Villa Consano: “The trauma-focused therapy at Villa Consano was life-changing. I had carried my trauma for decades, and the clinical team helped me process it in a way that felt safe and supported. The facility itself is beautiful and calm, exactly the environment I needed.” Anonymous Client
  • International Client: “The decision to travel to South Africa for treatment was the best choice I ever made. The combination of world-class clinical care, stunning natural beauty, and genuine warmth from the staff created an environment where healing felt natural and hopeful.” Anonymous International Client
  • International Client: “As a business executive, I needed treatment that respected my privacy while providing the flexibility to manage essential responsibilities.
