Our Methodology

The Lifeline Signature Addiction Treatment Model

Pakistan’s most comprehensive private addiction treatment programme, a five-phase, 120-day residential recovery journey delivered within a confidential luxury retreat in Bani Gala, Islamabad.
Phase 01.
Detoxification & Compliance Induction
(21 Days)

Medical stabilisation & withdrawal management under qualified psychiatric supervision, the foundation of every serious private addiction recovery journey.

Phase 02.
Insight & Awareness
(39 Days)

Cognitive understanding, personal pattern recognition, & emotional awareness, building the motivation essential for lasting recovery within our confidential healing environment.

Phase 03.
Skill Building & Relapse Prevention
(42 Days)

Dual-track development of relapse prevention and life skills, culminating in each patient’s personalised Private Relapse Prevention Plan.

Phase 04.
Deep Healing
(30–45 Days)

Trauma processing, shame healing, & identity reconstruction are the clinical depth that separates serious executive addiction recovery from standard short-term treatment.

Phase 05.
Reintegration & Aftercare
(21–28 Days + 3 Months)

Graduated reintegration into community life, followed by three months of structured aftercare, because discharge is a transition, not a conclusion.
