LifeHouse

At LifeHouse, we ensure that everyone can receive the care they need, and we do not turn anyone away because of their inability to pay. Most clients use Medicaid or state funding. If you have commercial insurance, you would just have to pay the deductible. Our Sliding Fee Discount Program provides help based on income guidelines so that all patients can access our services.

Yes, LifeHouse accepts Medicaid, most major commercial insurance plans, and offers state funding for most uninsured individuals.

Please arrive by 11:00 a.m. or earlier to start the intake process.

If you anticipate arriving after 12:00 p.m., you must inform us in advance. Failure to do so may result in the denial of your admission, requiring you to reschedule.

You must be clean and sober for at least 72 hours before admission. Failure to pass the admission urinalysis and breathalyzer tests may result in withheld admission or transfer to our detox program.

Please bring your driver’s license or photo ID, Social Security card, and insurance cards. Ensure you’ve sent us your insurance information in advance. We can also assist with applying for state assistance if you’re uninsured.

Please ensure all medical and legal matters are resolved before your admission date to allow you to focus fully on your recovery.

Bring a 30-day supply of your currently prescribed medications (no controlled substances). They must be in their original, properly labeled bottles. Ensure they have available refills to avoid any complications during your stay.

Yes, controlled substances and medications with high potential for abuse such as Xanax and Vicodin are not permitted. While Suboxone is used in our MAT program, outside prescriptions are not allowed. Please consult with your doctor about safely discontinuing these medications before starting treatment.

Residential and sober living clients live in comfortable, gender-specific houses. Rooms and bathrooms are shared with roommates to encourage peer support and community. Private rooms are not available.

It is not a lockdown facility, but it is a structured program. Clients have freedom on the property but cannot leave without being discharged. The detox unit is a more secure clinical environment for safety, while residential and sober living are more home-like.

The campus settings are tailored to the level of care. Detox takes place in a clinical facility, residential and sober living programs are in separate houses, and outpatient services are conducted in an office setting.

No, personal electronic or entertainment devices such as cell phones, music players, cameras, laptops, or tablets are not permitted. This policy helps clients focus completely on their recovery.

You are allowed one five-minute phone call upon admission to notify loved ones of your safe arrival. Afterward, you may make two 15-minute phone calls per week. Visitors are permitted twice, pending clinical staff approval. Please see the "Family Involvement" question for detailed visitor rules.

Yes, but in compliance with federal law, smoking within our facility is restricted to those OVER 21 YEARS OLD. You may bring a 30-day supply of unopened, regular cigarettes.

We offer a full continuum of care, including Medically Assisted Detox, Residential Treatment, Sober Living, Intensive Outpatient (IOP), and various weekly Counseling groups.

Our inpatient/residential program provides a 24/7 structured living environment for intensive care. Our outpatient programs (IOP and counseling) offer flexible, structured therapy while allowing you to live at home and maintain daily responsibilities.

Length of stay varies by program: detox is typically 5-10 days, residential is 30 days, our IOP is a 16-week (4-month) program, and sober living requires a minimum six-month commitment.

Our treatment model integrates a variety of approaches, including evidence-based behavioral therapy methods, dual diagnosis treatment, 12-step programs, trauma therapy, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and practical life skills development.

Yes, 12-Step programs and principles are a key component of our comprehensive treatment approach, integrated alongside other evidence-based clinical therapies.

Yes, we provide integrated treatment for dual diagnosis. Our clinical team addresses both substance use and any co-occurring mental health conditions like depression or anxiety simultaneously within your personalized care plan.

Yes, Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), which may include medications like Suboxone, is an available and integrated part of our treatment services to support recovery.
