Addictions we treat
At New Life House, we support clients who are recovering from a wide range of addictions. Our sober living program is designed to meet you where you are, providing structure, accountability, and community as you build a healthier, substance free life. We tailor support based on each client’s unique needs. These are the substances we treat in our program:
Alcohol
While alcohol is commonly used to relax or socialize, addiction can develop when drinking begins to interfere with daily life or becomes hard to control.
Opioid
While often prescribed for pain relief, opioid use can lead to unhealthy dependence as the body begins to crave more, making it difficult to function without them.
Stimulant
Used for energy or focus, stimulants can become addictive when the need for increased doses leads to restlessness, disrupted sleep, or difficulty slowing down.
Benzodiazepine
Prescribed for anxiety or sleep, benzodiazepines can cause dependence when tolerance builds, making it hard to relax or feel stable without the medication.
Cannabis
Many assume cannabis is harmless or low risk, but addiction can develop when usage starts interfering with daily life — like neglecting responsibilities, using more than intended, or struggling to quit.
Whippits / inhalant
Using nitrous oxide (“whippits”) may seem like a light, fleeting high — but addiction can take hold when repeated inhalation causes memory problems, coordination issues, or risky behavior.
Methadone
Even though methadone is used for opioid treatment, dependence can emerge when the body begins to rely on it, making tapering or stopping difficult without professional support.
Fentanyl
Often used medically for pain, fentanyl’s extreme potency can lead to rapid dependence. What starts as prescribed use can spiral into compulsive use, cravings, and life disruption.
Kratom
Kratom is sometimes marketed as a “natural” pain reliever, but its compounds act on opioid receptors, meaning long-term use can lead to dependence, tolerance, and withdrawal symptoms like anxiety, muscle aches, and insomnia.
Prescription drugs
Prescription medications — even when taken as directed — can become a source of dependence. Addiction may look like escalating dosages, anxiety about running out, or struggling to stop even when health or relationships suffer.
Gambling
Gambling can start as harmless recreation, but addiction develops when the urge to gamble outweighs financial risk, emotional well-being, or relationships. It often involves chasing losses or constantly thinking about the next bet.
Porn
What begins as occasional viewing can become compulsive when pornography use starts interfering with intimacy, personal goals, or mental health — and resisting urges leads to distress or relapse.
Social media
Social media can begin as a way to connect or relax, but addiction can take root when scrolling becomes compulsive, mood depends on engagement, or time spent online interferes with real-life responsibilities.

Frequently asked questions
How long do clients typically stay in sober living?
Most clients stay between 3–12 months, depending on their goals, progress, and the level of support needed. Some choose a shorter stay to reinforce early recovery skills, while others benefit from a longer, structured environment as they transition back into everyday life. At New Life House, your stay is tailored to what will best support your long term success.
What’s the difference between sober living and rehab?
Rehab focuses on detox and intensive treatment, usually in a clinical or inpatient setting. Sober living, on the other hand, gives you a safe, substance-free home where you can apply what you learned in treatment to real life. It’s about building routines, practicing responsibility, strengthening coping skills, and gaining independence, with support from a sober community.
Do I need to complete treatment before entering a sober living home?
Most clients enter sober living after completing detox or primary treatment, but requirements vary based on your situation and clinical recommendations. If you’re unsure, our team can guide you toward the level of care that fits your needs and ensures a safe, stable transition through our partner organization, Clear Behavioral Health.
Can clients work or go to school while living in sober living?
Yes, and it’s often encouraged. Sober living provides structure and accountability so you can return to work, school, or volunteer activities while still having a strong recovery foundation. You’ll have house expectations and curfews, but plenty of room to build a healthy, independent routine.
What is the environment like inside the house?
You can expect a supportive, community oriented atmosphere where everyone is working toward the same goal: long-term sobriety. There’s structure, daily routines, peer accountability, and a sense of belonging. Clients cook, attend meetings, participate in house activities, and support each other through challenges and wins.
What kind of support does the staff provide?
You’ll benefit from a team of experienced health experts, mentors, and counselors who offer guidance, weekly check ins, life skills support, and recovery focused programming. The goal is to help you stay grounded, motivated, and connected while you build the confidence to thrive on your own.
Is sober living suitable for young adults?
Absolutely. Many sober living programs, including New Life House, are specifically designed for teens and young adults ages 18 and up, and offer age-appropriate support, structure, and community. Clients benefit from being surrounded by peers who understand what they’re going through and who are equally committed to recovery.
Can family members stay involved?
Yes. Family involvement can be a powerful part of recovery, and New Life House encourages ongoing communication, family therapy, and educational resources. The goal is to help loved ones understand the recovery process and support you in healthy, constructive ways.
