For many high-profile individuals, the decision to seek treatment is not the hardest part. The hardest part is believing it can be done without exposure.
The Banyans is a private residential facility set in the calm of the Brisbane hinterland. There are no shared treatment spaces, no group sessions, and no other guests involved in your care at any point. The residence accommodates a small number of guests at any one time, each in their own private suite, each unknown to the others.
Your program is built entirely around your needs, your history, and your goals. Nothing generic. From your first conversation with our Intake team, every aspect of your time here is managed with discretion and clinical precision.
Public life creates specific pressures that standard residential treatment is not designed to accommodate. The environment is too exposed, the logistics are unmanaged, and the group model is incompatible with the level of privacy required.
The Banyans is built differently.
There are no group therapy sessions at any stage, for any program. Treatment is one-on-one throughout: psychology, psychiatry, medical care, dietetics, and exercise physiology, delivered individually by a fully qualified multidisciplinary team.
The physical setting is private by design. The residence sits within a secure, secluded property in the Brisbane hinterland. It is not a hospital. It is not a clinic. It does not present publicly as a treatment facility. For guests requiring enhanced privacy logistics , including private confidential transfers, additional confidentiality protocols, or companion inclusion, The Banyans Bespoke program offers exclusive use of the entire Estate Luxury Residence.
We understand that a one-size-fits-all approach to treating complex conditions is ineffective.
From your initial enquiry, our experienced team partners with you to create and continually refine a personalised treatment pathway supported by a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach for sustained recovery.

Some situations require more than a private suite. They require an entirely private residence.
The Banyans Bespoke reserves the full Estate exclusively for you. No other guests on the property at any point. Your clinical team, your household, your rhythm. Structured integration of a partner, family members, or trusted companions is available within the therapeutic framework. Unbranded logistics, visitor management, and enhanced confidentiality protocols can be arranged on request.
The clinical model is identical to the Comprehensive Program: one-on-one, multidisciplinary, and fully individualised throughout. What Bespoke adds is exclusivity of place, companion inclusion, and a service layer built entirely around your household.
Enhance your stay with a curated selection of program upgrades allowing you to target specific needs and deepen your recovery experience – because no journey is the same.
Up to two years of structured aftercare support is available following any residential program, including continued sessions with your treating clinicians.
For guests returning to their home city, that continuity is built in. The Banyans Health Plus day programs are available via telehealth, meaning the clinical foundation built during your residential stay can continue to support you wherever you are based.
Our Day Programs offer focused, weekly care within our purpose-built recovery facility in Brisbane’s inner city. Benefit from private, tailored one-on-one sessions in a tranquil environment, where practical tools and expert guidance are provided to help you navigate the transition back to daily life.
Building upon your program progress, our aftercare service provides personalised, ongoing support and maintained connection. Through regular Telehealth sessions, we gain a deeper understanding of your evolving needs and tailor guidance accordingly. This collaborative approach to reintegration, ensures you receive the right support for each stage of your journey.

These testimonials, shared with utmost confidentiality, reflect the very real journeys of individuals navigating recovery. Whilst each guest’s journey is unique, these stories offer insights into the transformative potential of The Banyans’ leading mental health and addiction treatment programs.
Can I be confident my treatment will remain private?
Discretion is central to how The Banyans operates, not an add-on. From your first contact with the intake team through to discharge and aftercare, your privacy is protected at every stage.
There are no shared treatment spaces and no group sessions. Each guest has their own private suite and ensuite. Staff operate under strict confidentiality obligations. For guests requiring enhanced privacy protocols, including unbranded transfers and additional security arrangements, these can be discussed confidentially with the Intake team.
Do you treat alcohol and drug dependency for people in public life?
Yes. The Banyans treats alcohol dependence, drug use, prescription medication dependency, and co-occurring mental health conditions. The clinical model is designed for presentations of genuine complexity, and for people who need treatment delivered with a level of discretion that standard facilities cannot provide.
All treatment is one-on-one. No aspect of your program involves other guests.
Can my partner be involved in my program?
Partner involvement is possible in several ways, depending on your clinical needs and program structure. Within the standard residential programs, relationship therapy can be incorporated where clinically appropriate using the evidence-based Gottman Method. A dedicated Relationship Retreat is also available for program graduates and their partner, focused on reconnection and sustained recovery following discharge. For those who require a partner or family member to be present throughout the residential stay, The Banyans Bespoke program offers exclusive use of the Estate Luxury Residence with structured companion integration built into the clinical framework.
The Intake team can discuss which option best fits your situation in confidence.
How do I arrange transfer to The Banyans without public exposure?
Private transfer can be arranged from any Australian city, including by private aircraft where required. The Intake team manages the logistics of arrival and departure with the same level of discretion as every other aspect of your program. For guests with specific security or logistical requirements, these are discussed confidentially during the admissions process.
Is gambling disorder treated at The Banyans?
Gambling disorder is treated within The Banyans’ addiction programs. Treatment addresses the psychological drivers of the behaviour using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, delivered one-on-one by a qualified multidisciplinary team. A co-occurring mental health condition, such as anxiety, depression, or trauma is common in this presentation and is assessed and treated concurrently where clinically indicated.
