What makes executive rehab different?
- Discretion: one-to-one residences, private transfers, pseudonymous bookings and Swiss medical secrecy.
- Flexibility: supervised, time-limited work contact after the first phase.
- Medical depth: extensive diagnostics, including physical health, sleep and metabolic assessment.
- Return-to-work planning: structured reintegration with boundaries.
Addiction and burnout often come together
Many executives present with both: alcohol, cocaine or sleeping-pill use as a way to cope with chronic stress. Integrated programmes treat burnout and addiction together; Clinic Les Alpes runs a dedicated executive burnout programme.
One-to-one or small clinic?
For total separation from other patients, one-to-one residences such as CALDA Clinic are the standard. Executives who value peers facing similar pressures often prefer a small licensed clinic. Read one-client rehab explained.
