The patient is seated opposite, slightly blurred and facing the therapist. The setting is warm and professional — with neutral tones, natural light, and minimal visual clutter. The body language appears open and attentive.

Inpatient and residential care gives you space, structure, and full support so you can focus completely on getting better.
