About U-center
The start of U-center
Since 2008, in a former hotel in the South Limburg town of Epen (near Maastricht), we have been accommodating clients with multiple mental health disorders.
We offer a 7- or 9-weeks of inpatient treatment. Our short and intensive approach, in a healing environment and with a short waiting time, is unique and effective.
How U-center began. Two entrepreneurs were looking for help for their loved ones. They had an alcohol addiction and personality problems. They tried Internet therapy, support groups, day treatment at a clinic. But everywhere they encountered long waiting lists and everything failed. The help was also not focused on several psychological problems at once.
In desperation, they reported to a German private clinic that was well versed in comorbidity. After a short and intensive therapy, they made a total turnaround and gradually regained control of their lives. From their enthusiasm about this success, the initiators decided to establish U-center. This way more people could benefit from this approach. But closer to home, so that family, friends or employers could also be involved in the recovery process.
Hospitality as part of treatment
The founders bought a hotel in Epen. They also took over the hotel staff. 'Hospitality' is thus in our DNA. Thus, not only the treatment contributes to your recovery. But also the hospitality, service and beautiful, peaceful surroundings. As a client, you should feel safe and comfortable. We also believe in a holistic and multidisciplinary approach.

Our partners
We provide high-quality care and continue to learn. To this end, we cooperate with leading organizations. For example, the academic hospital Maastricht UMC+ and the doctors' federation KNMG.
Treatment effect and results
The best treatment also requires scientific knowledge. Therefore, we measure treatment effects at different times with approved questionnaires, up to a year later. We also survey client satisfaction in various ways.
Over three-quarters of our clients already recover during admission. This is a very high percentage in mental health care. Also, a much smaller number of clients relapse with us.
