The Wave is unique. We have designed our program to be unlike any other—to make a difference where there seems little hope and nowhere else to go. We do that through fostering a nurturing place where it is safe for young people to find out who they are and who they want to be. We are creative, and we truly take the time to understand our clients and their families. We work with families to provide solutions for the whole family. Our program is offered in English and Arabic.

Exquisite Location

The Wave Clinic offers panoramic terraces and manicured gardens. Our large suites are single or shared, with en-suite bathrooms. We also have an indoor pool, hot tub, yoga deck, art room that includes fashion and textile design, an outdoor basketball court, table tennis, fully-equipped gym, tennis, futsal, badminton, a games terrace and more. We have an onsite chef who works with our dietician to provide fresh and nutritious meals. Our young people regularly participate in choosing, preparing, cooking and serving lunches on the weekends.

Treatment Approach

We provide innovative programs that are dynamic, family oriented and activity based while in recovery. We also provide education and help teens and young adults gain valuable life skills. We bring families back together, build trust and hope through connection. Our treatment approach is known to be a safe space to transform and heal.

Planning for the Future

Our team prioritizes preparing each young person and their family with an ongoing care plan to help ensure sustained recovery. We collaborate with making sure that there is aftercare treatment with preferred professionals. We are on hand to support the transition and are always available to help the family or new treatment team, both during and after discharge. We also offer a Transitions House that is a program providing small structured steps towards independent living.
