Elsden Clinics

Elsden Clinics is a specialist addiction-care provider serving the northern Netherlands, with locations in Assen and Groningen. Its approach emphasizes experienced professionals, timely access to care and effective, up-to-date treatment, while placing each client at the centre of recovery. The organization supports people affected by substance misuse, including alcohol, cocaine and medication dependence, as well as gambling and other compulsive behaviours.

Treatment options include structured two-day and four-day weekly group programmes, each lasting twelve weeks and combining therapy, themed sessions and relapse prevention. Individual treatment is available for clients whose needs are better met through a tailored programme. After day treatment, continuing care offers group meetings and individual conversations to help maintain recovery and reduce the risk of relapse. Elsden Clinics also provides a six-session programme for relatives and other loved ones affected by addiction. For clients whose circumstances make day treatment unsuitable, the clinic offers a six-week residential programme in Portugal.
