Our Approach to Treating Sex Addiction
To give you the strongest foundation for lasting recovery, we help you overcome both your immediate symptoms and the underlying issues contributing to your addiction.
Our person-centred, trauma-informed approach recognises that compulsive sexual behaviour rarely exists in isolation and often masks underlying trauma, anxiety, depression, or relationship wounds.
When you arrive, you will receive a personalised treatment plan structured around our Treatment Roadmap, which guides you through progressive phases that stabilise your emotional health and prepare you for a confident return to everyday life with healthy boundaries and coping strategies.
In our safe, non-judgmental therapeutic environment, you will find the intensive support and supervision necessary to overcome compulsive sexual behavior and reclaim your future.
Personalised Sex Addiction Treatment at The Dawn Thailand
At The Dawn, you will receive a personalised treatment plan tailored to your recovery needs and guided by our Treatment Roadmap. This paced, structured process helps you understand your compulsive patterns, addresses co-occurring mental health conditions, and prepares you for a successful return to everyday life.
Assessment and Stabilisation
(Weeks 1 to 2)
Your stay begins with a comprehensive psychological assessment to understand your specific patterns and triggers so we can customise your treatment plan.
This initial phase focuses on creating safety and stability, allowing you to step away from compulsive behaviours in a supportive environment.
You will begin building trust with your clinical team while your mind and body stabilise before starting deeper therapeutic work.
Understanding Patterns and Managing Triggers
(Weeks 2 to 5)
Next, we focus on helping you understand your addiction patterns and equipping you with practical tools to manage triggers.
Therapies include:
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to change thought patterns that drive compulsive behaviour
- Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MCBT) to develop present-moment awareness
- Individual therapy sessions to explore your personal issues and relationship patterns
You will also participate in group sessions to build connection and receive peer support.
Addressing Underlying Causes
(Weeks 5 to 12)
This phase is critical for preventing relapse and achieving lasting recovery.
We explore and resolve the underlying trauma, mental health conditions, and life experiences that led to your sex addiction.
Therapies include:
- Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT) to safely process traumatic experiences
- Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) to reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic memories
How long is sex addiction treatment?
−The average stay is around 60 days, though your treatment duration will depend on several factors, including the severity of your addiction and how you respond to treatment.
If you are struggling with co-occurring mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, or trauma, a longer stay of approximately 90 days allows us to provide more thorough care that better prepares you for lasting recovery.
Once we complete your assessment, we will work together to determine the ideal length for your hypersexuality treatment.
What is the best treatment for sex addiction?
+Our trauma-informed treatment recognises that how to help a sex addict acknowledges that people often develop compulsive sexual behaviour as a way to cope with deeper psychological struggles like anxiety, depression, attachment wounds, or unresolved trauma.
To ensure sustainable recovery, we address these root causes while helping you develop healthier coping strategies and relationship patterns. Our treatment combines evidence-based Western therapies like CBT and MCBT with holistic Eastern practices like mindfulness, yoga, and massage. This multifaceted approach addresses your mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing, leading to profound transformation on every level.
Your personalised treatment plan follows our Treatment Roadmap, which guides you through carefully structured phases tailored to your individual needs. Each phase progresses at a pace that works for you, so you are never overwhelmed as you lay the groundwork for a return to everyday life.
How is The Dawn's sex rehab different from others?
+Several factors set The Dawn apart from other sex addiction treatment centres:

Our Treatment Roadmap then guides you through carefully paced phases that support lasting healing without overwhelming you.
- Comprehensive treatment: We combine evidence-based Western psychotherapy with scientifically-backed Eastern wellness practices to address your wellbeing on every level.
- Expert clinical team: You will work with compassionate clinicians trained in the UK, US, and Australia. Our low client-to-staff ratio also ensures you receive dedicated attention throughout your entire recovery journey.
- Therapeutic environment: Your treatment occurs in a setting far away from everyday stresses and triggers, allowing you to concentrate fully on recovery without the pressures of daily obligations.
- Ongoing support: Our Free Lifetime Aftercare Programme provides ongoing support to help you maintain your recovery long after you return home.
- Exceptional value: All of this is available at significantly lower costs than comparable Western facilities while maintaining the same clinical standards.

How does the quality of care compare to rehabs in the US or UK?
−You can trust that your care meets the same rigorous standards as high-quality treatment facilities in the US and UK.
As Asia's only CARF-accredited rehab, we adhere to the strict guidelines for clinical care and safety that govern top-tier treatment centres in the US. This means we use evidence-based treatment methods tailored to your individual needs rather than the 12 Step one-size-fits-all model.
We maintain a 90% programme completion rate, with 96% of our clients recommending The Dawn to others.
This exceptional standard of care comes at significantly lower costs than comparable Western facilities, allowing you to invest in longer, more comprehensive treatment without compromising on quality.
Is sex addiction treatment in Thailand covered by insurance?
+Yes, The Dawn accepts insurance from leading healthcare providers worldwide for sex addiction treatment.
Coverage varies depending on your specific insurance plan and provider, so we recommend consulting directly with your insurance company about their coverage for international addiction treatment to ensure all your questions are answered prior to beginning treatment.
Many clients find that even with partial coverage, the significantly lower costs of treatment in Thailand compared to Western facilities can make comprehensive sex addiction treatment more accessible and affordable than local options.
Is language a barrier in Thai rehabs?
+Not at The Dawn. All therapy sessions, medical care, and daily activities are provided in English. Our team speaks fluent English and includes licensed professionals trained in the US, UK, and Australia, so you will never have to worry about being misunderstood or lost in translation. Most of our clients are from the US, UK, and Australia, creating a familiar cultural environment for your recovery journey.
Inpatient vs Outpatient Sex Addiction Treatment
Inpatient sex addiction treatment removes you from everyday triggers and offers intensive support that outpatient programmes cannot match. At The Dawn, every aspect of your treatment, from therapeutic sessions and clinical oversight to wellness practices and community support, is coordinated within one facility. This integrated approach lets you focus fully on your healing journey.
Inpatient – Creates the perfect environment for deep healing and lasting recovery by removing you from the people, places, and circumstances that contribute to your sex addiction.
Outpatient – Increases relapse risk by keeping you exposed to triggers like stress, social situations, and digital access, while you are also trying to manage treatment alongside daily responsibilities.
Inpatient – Provides uninterrupted care with intensive daily therapy and 24/7 support when you need it most.
Outpatient – Leaves you vulnerable between weekly or bi-weekly sessions, with limited access to support during difficult moments.
Inpatient – Accelerates your progress through intensive daily treatment that combines individual counselling, group therapy, and holistic practices.
Outpatient – Slows your recovery progress through limited sessions that require exceptional self-discipline during your most vulnerable recovery periods.
Inpatient – Eliminates logistical stress by offering all services in one convenient location far from daily obligations.
Outpatient – Adds logistical complexity as you juggle multiple appointments across different locations and manage care from various treatment professionals.
Inpatient – Facilitates peer connection and mutual support through group sessions where you share experiences with others overcoming similar struggles.
Outpatient – Limits peer support by typically providing only individual sessions without opportunities to connect with others navigating similar recovery journeys.
