Luxury dual ministry-licensed residential rehab in Kfar Shmaryahu, 10 min from Tel Aviv. CBT, sea therapy, nutrition, psychodrama, and dual-diagnosis treatment.
Villa Matrix is a private residential addiction treatment centre in Herzliya Pituach, in the greater Tel Aviv metropolitan area. The centre operates from a small luxury villa and provides personalised rehabilitation for both Israeli and international clients.
The centre has been operating since 2009 — over fifteen years. It treats a broad range of addictive and compulsive conditions including alcohol dependence, drug addiction, gambling, eating disorders, internet addiction, and dual diagnosis. According to Villa Matrix’s own description, the programme is built on the conviction that each person is a unique individual, and that personalised therapeutic work is the core of effective treatment. The small scale of the centre — a private villa rather than a large institution — is central to this model.
Villa Matrix has served clients from Israel, Russia, the United Kingdom, North and South America, Europe, South Africa, and Australia. The centre collaborates with the Israeli Ministry of Defense Rehabilitation Department and works with the Meuhedet Health Fund.
Villa Matrix describes its approach as combining individual and group psychotherapy with experiential modalities in a residential setting. Therapies include art therapy and sea therapy — the latter using the proximity of the Mediterranean coast as part of the therapeutic environment. The programme integrates 12-Step facilitation alongside individual counselling, group work, and life skills development.
The centre emphasises that its small size allows a high ratio of staff attention to each client. Clients step away from daily routines and environmental triggers and focus on recovery within a structured, supportive setting. The villa accommodates a small number of residents at any one time.
“Finding the right environment — one that feels safe, private, and adapted to who you are — is not a luxury in recovery. It is often what makes the difference between returning and staying.”
The following is based on information published on the Villa Matrix website. Recovery Compass has not independently audited programme content or clinical methodology.
Villa Matrix runs a residential programme in which clients live on-site for the duration of treatment. The programme is described as individually tailored — treatment plans are adapted to each person’s substance use history, presenting conditions, and therapeutic needs. Therapeutic modalities described by the centre include:
Villa Matrix treats both substance use disorders and behavioural addictions:
Villa Matrix has treated clients from multiple countries and regions and provides support for those arriving from outside Israel. The centre’s website materials are available in multiple languages. Contact Villa Matrix to discuss language support, travel logistics, and whether a language-specific clinical match is available for your situation.
This is a general guide based on how Villa Matrix describes its programme and services. Eligibility and fit should be confirmed through a direct consultation with the centre.
Villa Matrix is located at Yasmin 8, Herzliya Pituach — in the northern Tel Aviv metropolitan area, approximately 10 minutes by car from Tel Aviv city centre. The Herzliya Pituach area is a quiet, upscale residential neighbourhood close to the Mediterranean coast.
The centre operates from a private villa described on its website as providing a discreet, secluded, and fully luxurious environment. Accommodation includes deluxe rooms, suites, and shared rooms. The small villa-scale setting is a deliberate part of the therapeutic model — clients are not in a large institutional facility but in an intimate residential environment designed to feel supportive rather than clinical.
For specific questions about room types, what to bring, visiting arrangements, and current availability, contact Villa Matrix directly before admission.
Villa Matrix accepts clients directly. No referral from a welfare service or social worker is required for private-pay admission.
Villa Matrix collaborates with the Israeli Ministry of Defense Rehabilitation Department. If you are a veteran or active-duty IDF service member, contact Villa Matrix to discuss whether a MoD referral pathway applies to your situation.
The centre works with the Meuhedet Health Fund. Contact Villa Matrix directly to confirm current coverage terms and what portion of treatment costs may be covered under your specific Meuhedet plan.
Villa Matrix has treated clients arriving from Russia, the UK, the United States, Latin America, Europe, South Africa, and Australia. Contact the centre to discuss travel arrangements, language support, and any practical logistics for arriving from abroad.
Villa Matrix is a private-pay facility. Standard public rehabilitation funding through Bituach Leumi is not available here.
The following funding pathways may apply in specific circumstances — confirm eligibility directly with the centre:
Programme fees are not published on the centre’s website. Cost depends on room type (suite, deluxe, or shared), programme duration, and individual clinical needs. Contact Villa Matrix directly for current pricing.
Villa Matrix is listed on Recovery Compass as a LISTED PROVIDER. This means the centre appears in publicly available sources and its basic factual information — address, phone, and described services — has been confirmed across multiple sources. It does not mean Recovery Compass has conducted an on-site visit, independently audited the clinical programme, or verified regulatory licensing.
VILLA MATRIX DOES NOT PUBLISH MINISTRY OF HEALTH OR OTHER REGULATORY LICENSING INFORMATION THAT RECOVERY COMPASS COULD INDEPENDENTLY VERIFY. The centre’s website contains no mention of a Ministry of Health license, a registration number, or a regulatory body that supervises the facility. The website does describe a collaboration with the Ministry of Defense Rehabilitation Department and a working relationship with the Meuhedet Health Fund — these are referral and funding partnerships, not Ministry of Health or Ministry of Social Affairs licensing.
This is a significant distinction from centres in our directory listed as MoH Licensed or MoH Supervised. It does not necessarily mean Villa Matrix is operating without appropriate licences — it means Recovery Compass cannot confirm its regulatory status from public information. We recommend asking Villa Matrix directly about their licensing status before making a treatment decision.
The Villa Matrix website describes its location inconsistently — body text in two separate places refers to “Kfar Shmaryahu” and “Hertzliya” respectively, while the contact footer lists the address as “Yasmin 8, Herzliya Pituach.” Herzliya Pituach and Kfar Shmaryahu are adjacent municipalities in the same area; their boundary runs near this location, which may explain the variation. Recovery Compass uses the address published in the centre’s own contact footer: Yasmin 8, Herzliya Pituach. Confirm the exact address and travel directions with Villa Matrix before visiting.

Villa Matrix treats both. Alongside alcohol and drug addiction, the centre explicitly treats gambling addiction, eating disorders, internet addiction, and other compulsive and destructive behaviours. Dual diagnosis — co-occurring addiction and mental health conditions — is also within scope. If you are unsure whether your specific situation is addressed by the programme, contact Villa Matrix for an initial consultation.
Villa Matrix does not publish Ministry of Health licensing information on its website, and Recovery Compass was unable to find a regulatory licensing claim in any publicly available source. The website describes a collaboration with the Ministry of Defense Rehabilitation Department and a relationship with the Meuhedet Health Fund — these are funding and referral partnerships, not Ministry of Health regulatory licensing. We recommend asking Villa Matrix directly about their licensing and regulatory status before committing to treatment.
Yes. Villa Matrix has treated clients from Russia, the UK, North and Latin America, Europe, South Africa, and Australia, and describes itself as experienced with overseas arrivals. The centre’s website is available in multiple languages. Contact Villa Matrix to discuss language support, travel arrangements, and practical logistics for arriving from abroad.
Possibly, in specific circumstances. Villa Matrix states on its website that it collaborates with the Israeli Ministry of Defense Rehabilitation Department — if you are a veteran or active-duty IDF service member, contact the centre to discuss whether a MoD referral pathway applies. The centre also works with the Meuhedet Health Fund; contact Villa Matrix directly to confirm current coverage terms under your plan. Standard Bituach Leumi public rehabilitation funding is not available.
Both names appear in different places on the Villa Matrix website. The contact footer of the website lists the address as Yasmin 8, Herzliya Pituach, which is what Recovery Compass uses. Herzliya Pituach and Kfar Shmaryahu are adjacent municipalities in the same area, and the boundary between them runs near this location — which explains why both names appear. Confirm the exact address and travel directions with Villa Matrix directly before visiting.
