WHY SOBER LIVING AT RIGHT PATH?

Come and build your best life ever.

Coming from a 30 -120 day residential care or in-home care, we're suitable for those who are ready to gain the depth of recovery while living and loving life, getting back to work, and spending time with friends and family. Surrounded by a community of like-minded women (instant feedback), we know recovery is exciting, full of laughter, compassion, meaning, responsibilities, and challenges. Most of all, we'll help you begin living a fully present, sober life. It's how we support you that sets us apart from other sober houses. Our philosophy is to wrap clinical, 12-step and individual coaching support around you while in a home-like community where you build your dreams. We're offering recovery workshops, shared dinners and fun activities on the weekend.

Horses can Help

How Equine Works

  • We travel to the horse farm to groom and bond with the horses. We don't ride, we do what is know as "ground" work. You'll learn what the horse thinks about on our visits. The horse is unencumbered by ego. He doesn't play games or have power trips. He just wants to know if he can trust you.  

  • People often take riding lessons at their own cost at Westbrook Hunt Club and Rivendell Farm.

  • Equine Therapy offered the Stable Ground

How Share Dinners Work

Every evening we gather for a family-like dinner that one of us prepares with love and care. If you have dietary restrictions, we try to handle them like a family would and make accommodations. Because we take turns cooking every night, it reduces your food budget. Please also note that residents who have work or therapy may miss dinner, but we'll save you a plate to heat up later. ​
