WOMEN’S RESIDENTIAL SERVICES

Affordable, Effective Treatment for Woman Suffering from Addiction


Our Women’s Residential Program for alcohol and drug addiction has two attributes that set it apart from other programs. It’s affordable and it’s effective.


The affordability is reflected by the fact that we offer 3 to 6 months of treatment for no more than and often less than the average 28 day program. And our experience teaches that the longer stays guarantee a more solid basis for sobriety over the long term.


Since opening in 1971 the program has graduated more than 2,000 women. The recovery home is a welcoming place located in a lovely Tudor home where clients live in the 14-bed facility for three to six months and receive compassionate treatment from our experienced, professionally trained staff. When you first enter Clay Street home you sense that it is a place with heart. A safe place. A perfect place for a new beginning.


Clients soon learn to have confidence not only in our certified professional staff’s expertise, but also from the fact that the staff has been there. They have known personally the isolation and despair  of addiction and they have overcome it and moved on to fulfilling lives. 


The Treatment Process


Addiction can become a dark and hopeless place. The first step out of it is a welcoming hand to lead the client through intake, followed by assessment and treatment planning. Individualized planning is the hallmark of our treatment. It determines what elements of the program are most needed for the individual client.


The program builds the basis for sobriety after completion through relapse prevention counseling, education, individual counseling and personal offerings such as stress and anger management, plus emphasis on 12-Step principles and practices.


Our staff includes addiction counselors, therapists, family counselors, and experts in various fields including parenting, stress, anger and mood management, and trauma and grief resolution. Psychological counseling is also available for clients with mental health problems.
