Cleanic - Programa Portage – Vila Nova de Gaia
About Cleanic – Programa Portage
Cleanic – Programa Portage is a private therapeutic community in Valadares, Vila Nova de Gaia, that runs the Portage Programme in Portugal. The service supports men, women and adolescents from age 15 with substance use problems and other addictive behaviours, as well as individuals with psychiatric disorders with or without substance use, with a State convention plus ADSE and SAMS arrangements.
Treatment combines the therapeutic community model with cognitive-behavioural therapy, positive psychology and individual case management, in a family-like setting where peer influence and mutual help drive change and a reward system is adapted to each person’s difficulties. Regimes range from inpatient care and a day centre to after-work and after-school hours, outpatient psychology and psychiatry consultations, a reintegration programme with an on-site reintegration house, substance screening and smoking cessation. Horse riding, theatre, yoga, dance and painting sit alongside the clinical work, and the service describes itself as completely confidential.

Cleanic – Programa Portage Reviews
Cleanic – Programa Portage has only limited public reviews from around the web, so there is little independent feedback to weigh alongside the service’s own description of the Portage Programme. RehabSeekers hosts reviews for this service, and anyone who has attended in Valadares, whether as a resident, a day-centre user or a family member, is welcome to share their experience.
First-hand accounts would be especially useful here because the service covers so many regimes, from adolescent and dual-diagnosis tracks to the reintegration house. An honest review of the therapeutic community, the activities and the follow-up consultations would help you or someone you care about judge which programme fits.
The worst I've ever seen.
Those who criticize have their reasons... for me, in terms of conditions like food, football field, gym, etc., there shouldn't be many with these conditions. In terms of staff, I have no reason to complain. You're there… to take care of yourself, so there have to be rules... if there's a vacancy, I'll go again. Pedro Teixeira
He saved my life, I've been sober for almost 3 years!
It's not worth it.
Terrible. HORRIBLE. I do not recommend this therapeutic community. They mistreat patients and take advantage of their insecurity, depression, and despair.
Terrible clinic. There is no empathy in this clinic. Only yelling and humiliation towards patients. Pretentious and arrogant. I do not recommend it.
Hello to the entire Cleanic technical team! In short, my process was full of ups and downs, and I had to correct several wrong behaviors I had within the therapeutic community! Thanks to that, I became more of a man, I… am a more attentive person to myself and those around me. This whole process was hard, but thanks to my resilience, I finished the treatment successfully! I feel happy for myself, but as the slogan says, "Only you can do it, but not alone," I found true friends here. I am grateful to all the friends and technical team of what has become my second family. Thank you very much.
Pleasant space. Well organized. Great staff. Top-notch technical team.
It was here that I found myself, forgave, and was forgiven. Thank you, staff, for always helping me when I needed it most. I am a new person thanks to you and the treatment, safe, confident, and happier than I have ever… been. You gave me back peace and wisdom about myself and others. I will always be attentive and prepared to face life head-on. A big thank you ♥️ Cristina
Get out of here. Terrible staff. All they do is yell and swear. They sleep through the night, and if you knock on the door asking for help, they won't even open it. And the worst part is that they have an alcoholic… staff member who sends a patient with alcohol problems to buy alcohol for himself. Only Dr. Rita and staff member Alberto are any exception.
It saved my life when nobody cared about me anymore. Here I rediscovered my values as a person, here I became part of society again. I am and will be very grateful for everything you have done and continue to do for… me. Thank you all.
