Comunidade Terapêutica Quinta das Lapas – Torres Vedras
About Comunidade Terapêutica Quinta das Lapas
Comunidade Terapêutica Quinta das Lapas is Dianova Portugal‘s residential treatment centre on a farm in Monte Redondo, Torres Vedras. Dianova has worked in Portugal since 1984 as a charitable association within the Dianova International network, and the community treats adults dependent on heroin, cocaine, cannabis, alcohol, prescription drugs and new psychoactive substances, admitting national and international clients.
The model is abstinence-oriented and cognitive-behavioural within a biopsychosocial approach, combining individual and group psychotherapy, occupational and psycho-educational workshops, sport and body expression, leisure management and relapse prevention, with medical and psychiatric follow-up and pharmacological support where needed. An intensive programme for problematic internet use, covering online gambling, gaming, cybersex and social media, is open to young people and adults. Admission begins with an assessment phase gathering substance history, severity, medical reports and family context, from which an individualised treatment plan is drawn up; contact is by online form, phone, email or Skype, and the team spans general medicine, psychiatry, psychology, social work and social education.

How Much Does Treatment at Comunidade Terapêutica Quinta das Lapas Cost?
Comunidade Terapêutica Quinta das Lapas has 40 of its 100 licensed beds contracted with the State under an ICAD convention, so a place through the public referral route carries a client contribution rather than the full fee. Remaining beds take privately funded, self-pay clients from Portugal and abroad, typically €6,000 to €16,500 a month, and Dianova quotes on request.
No fees were published on the pages read, in Portuguese or English, and the private rate for an international client may differ from the contribution asked of someone referred by a public treatment team. Contact the admissions team for a quote tailored to the programme, whether substance treatment or the intensive internet-use programme, and ask what medical and psychiatric follow-up is included.

Comunidade Terapêutica Quinta das Lapas Reviews
Reviews of Comunidade Terapêutica Quinta das Lapas from around the web are limited, although Dianova publishes its own satisfaction and retention figures, which are the organisation’s claims rather than independent feedback. RehabSeekers hosts reviews for this community, and former residents from Portugal or abroad, and anyone who completed the internet-use programme, are welcome to share their experience.
Useful accounts would describe the assessment phase, the workshops and sports on the farm, how English-speaking clients were supported and what reintegration help followed discharge. Comments about Dianova found online may refer to its training, prevention or international work rather than to the Torres Vedras community itself.
I spent 8 months at the Dianova Association undergoing treatment for an addiction that greatly harmed my life, but with effort and dedication, along with the excellent team at this Association, I am now in an excellent… phase of my life. The daily routine within the institution is not easy for those seeking treatment; sometimes, and in my case many times, I questioned and didn't understand certain rules and the way they said no or didn't immediately fulfill my requests. But now, in my new beginning, I understand very well everything they made us go through. For anyone reading this testimony and truly wanting treatment, don't hesitate to contact this association because you will find hope here. Finally, I want to publicly thank all the monitors, Dr. Rodolfo, and the rest of the staff for all the dedication they gave me during my treatment... forever in my heart. Thank you.
Some incomprehensible rules! Beware of the contracts, there are no clauses protecting the client, there are no refunds even for short stays! In my case, the person stayed only 4 days and left, they didn't return a… penny, 1580 euros disappeared! Although promised, there is no support after leaving! I do not recommend it!
glitch working (2024)
My experience with Dianova after 7 months was pure disappointment. In the beginning we were supervised with good coaching. But this changed after some supervisors and even 2 directors left this institute. We had no… mental coaching anymore and had to work every day at least like in a boot camp for 5 hours because the management thought this was the real solution to our addiction problem.... ridiculous
Do you need help with your problem? If you can't do it alone, don't choose Dianova. Bad professionals!!! But if you can manage on your own, the space is fantastic, just don't expect help from anyone.
Eduardo Cachim, it's good to know what happened to you, as I was about to start at this institution, so for me it's forgotten, I'll move on to another. Thank you very much for the information, I only regret what… happened to you. Don't be discouraged, God is great.
