Healing happens from the inside out – and sometimes from the outside in, too. We encourage gentle physical activity as part of recovery, because movement rejuvenates the spirit. Clients might take an evening stroll under our estate’s old oak trees, join an afternoon yoga class, or enjoy a refreshing swim in the pool. Simple exercise helps relieve stress and rebuild confidence in one’s body, perfectly complementing the emotional work done in therapy.

“The question is not why the addiction, but why the pain.” – Dr. Gabor Maté. This insight guides our approach at Anker Huis. We know that overcoming addiction isn’t just about stopping a behavior; it’s about healing the hurt beneath it. By compassionately helping clients address the underlying pain and trauma driving their addiction, we set the stage for true and lasting recovery.

Sometimes art speaks when words fail. In our art therapy sessions, clients use painting, drawing, and other creative outlets to express feelings they struggle to put into conversation. We’ve watched someone turn turmoil into a beautiful painting – a breakthrough moment in understanding their emotions. Creative expression can unlock insights and bring relief, making it a powerful complement to traditional talk therapy at Anker Huis.

Daily structure is a cornerstone of our program. Each day at Anker Huis follows a gentle rhythm: mornings might begin with guided meditation or light yoga stretches, followed by therapy sessions and workshops; afternoons include time for reflection, exercise, or a quiet nature walk on our grounds. This consistent routine creates a sense of safety and normalcy for clients. Within the structure we remain flexible to individual needs – a balance that helps people gradually regain confidence and stability in their lives.
