Welcome from The Dawn Rehab in Thailand
Here at The Dawn Rehab Centre in Thailand, we meet you with kindness, not judgment. This is a place of safety, care, and real support.
We get to know you and your life as a whole, understanding all of the experiences that got you to where you are now – and create a custom treatment plan based on your personal goals for recovery.
We are here to walk with you, at your pace, every step of the way.

Our Approach to Addiction Treatment
We recognise that drug and alcohol use disorders, behavioural addictions, and mental health challenges all stem from adverse life experiences and unresolved trauma, which needs to be addressed in order to achieve lasting recovery.
Our structured treatment roadmap, informed by decades of clinical work in alcohol rehab and drug rehab settings, guides you through each step of your recovery. Each phase builds on the last to lay a strong foundation for your return to everyday life.
Away from the stressors of daily life, working with your dedicated therapist and supported by our community, you will undergo a deep transformation that targets the source of your struggles – not just the surface symptoms.
Asia’s only CARF-accredited rehab
CARF is a top-tier accreditation from the United States, only awarded to rehabs with the highest levels of treatment. CARF ensures:- Evidence-based treatment methods
- Person-centred approach & trauma-informed care
- International standards of care & safety
We are fully licensed
Our rehab centre is fully licensed by the Thai Health Ministry. This means The Dawn is regulated and undergoes regular inspections to ensure we meet high standards.
Staying at The Dawn Rehab Thailand
Our rehab centre in Thailand provides a healing environment far from the people, places, and situations that contribute to your condition. This distance allows you to focus solely on yourself and your treatment.
Holistic Treatment from World-class Clinicians
The Dawn employs only the most experienced, knowledgeable, and compassionate professionals.
Our clinical team consists of experts educated and trained abroad at institutions in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia. Our client-to-staff ratio is low, ensuring you are always well supported.
Alongside proven Western therapy, your stay will include mindfulness, massage, yoga and physical exercise classes.
Luxury Accommodation and Setting
Our rehab is nestled on the outskirts of the quaint city of Chiang Mai, Thailand, set on sprawling lush green riverfront lawns that are far from the stressors of daily life.
We accommodate a maximum of 30 clients in private, resort-style ensuite rooms. You will have access to a range of luxury facilities including a swimming pool, a fully equipped fitness centre with regular wellness activities like Muay Thai classes, a massage studio, yoga studio, and library.
Throughout your stay, you will experience meaningful offsite adventures such as kayaking, cooking classes, and cultural temple tours that support your healing journey.

The Dawn’s Signature Trauma Programme
Most Thailand rehab centres claim that they deal with underlying mental health conditions, trauma and PTSD. In our opinion, this is difficult to address effectively without the appropriate therapeutic interventions which go beyond traditional counselling. Our specialised Trauma Programme is made up of three key components: Trauma-Focused Individual Therapy, Trauma-Focused Group Work, and Trauma-Focused Somatic Work. It is carefully paced to avoid overwhelming you and reduce the risk of retraumatisation. Learn more.
