A Simple Conversation

Can Change Your DIRECTION

We know, we've been there. Sometimes the hardest part is the simplest.

Who We Serve, What To Bring, What If There Is A Relapse, Our Services, Our Add-Ons 

WHO DO WE SERVE?

  • Early sobriety support for persons who agree with 12-step in-person meetings, are willing to seek support from an individualized "wrap-around" clinical program, are transitioning from treatment or detox, and appreciate a structured, supportive environment that builds recovery routines, self-sustaining stability, and interdependence 

  • We do not serve adolescents, couples, or individuals seeking detox with residential rehab treatment.

SIMPLE and TRANSPARENT INTAKE PROCESS

  • Call 203-339-1191 to discuss with us whether or not we'd be a fit for each other and if yes, great or if not, we'll share some of your options.

  • We accept a non-refundable deposit of $500 to hold the bed and set a date and time for arrival. 

  • If your clinical program has not been arranged by your rehab, we will help you set up your clinical plan.

  • Upon arrival, you will be asked to sign our agreement outlining house responsibilities, financial fees, length of stay expectations, and exit planning.

  • Remember we are NOT a rehab or any kind of medical facility, so controlled substance(s) whether or not prescribed, are not accepted.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE IS A RELAPSE?

  • ​Relapse or rule violations trigger an immediate safety response: staff will prioritize stabilization, clinical and family consultation, and a plan for next steps.

  • Responses range from clinical referrals, a new sober house, or a return to residential. If you are returning to us, together we'll structure your re‑entry plan. The goal is always to keep people engaged in recovery rather than punish.

WHAT SERVICES
CAN I EXPECT FROM OUR SOBER HOUSE?

Why do I need to have a curated experience? Satisfaction of self-direction, vary the level of support when necessary, and honor the "one-size-doesn't fit all."

  • Our average length of stay is 7.1 months

WORK OR SCHOOL

  • Accountability for 12-step meeting attendance and step work

PAYMENTS

Payments are due every month. We use AUTOPAY and also accept Venmo, personal checks, cash, and credit card (with a 3.5% credit card fee). There is a non-refundable $300 administrative fee required for the first month. 

TEST SERVICES

We screen using both a 14-panel with

temperature including 72 hour ETG.

Some, because of travel or legal issues, use breathylizing from "You Are Accountable", or "Soberlink" at their own expense.

PEER DRIVEN ACTIVITIES

  • Biking and hiking

  • Beach and town

  • Join in one of the numerous fun activities-organize one yourself.  We're located in a vacation spot 

  • Bring hiking boots or good sneakers and your own helmet.

Add On Services

Add‑on services are optional, supplemental supports that residents can choose based on their needs, goals, or preferences. They sit on top of the foundational program and create a more tailored, high‑touch experience. They often include things like individualized coaching, transportation, wellness sessions, neurofeedback, family support, or administrative help.

  • They increase stability. Residents can fill gaps that would otherwise derail progress — like transportation, scheduling help, or extra accountability.

  • They create personalization. Not everyone needs the same level of structure; add‑ons let people build the right amount of support.

  • They reinforce dignity. Choosing services gives residents agency rather than forcing a one‑size‑fits‑all model.
