(855) 202-2138Levels of Care
Two levels of care, one proven program. PHP is full-time structure; IOP fits around your life. Most people start in one and step down, and we help you choose.
Full treatment days, five days a week. Ideal right after detox or when you need the most support, with housing coordinated if you need it.
A few focused sessions a week, daytime or evening, so you can hold onto work or school while you heal.
Group therapy, 1-on-1 counseling, and fitness therapy through the week, with lighter weekends for rest and real life.
A Different Way to Get Sober
Addiction isn't a character flaw, and you're not weak. The same relentless drive that made it impossible to stop becomes your greatest advantage once it's pointed in the right direction. We don't pile on restrictions. We teach you to harness it and get more out of life.
That obsessive, never-satisfied drive is an evolutionary strength pointed at the wrong thing. We redirect it instead of trying to break you of it, so it works for you in recovery and in life.
Plenty of programs add on "holistic" and exercise. Here the active, physical model is the treatment, every workout, ice bath, sauna and ocean session has real clinical reasoning behind it.
The industry optimizes for billable hours and protocol. We optimize for the life you build after you leave, high-functioning and connected, not restricted. And we measure it.
A different approach, with the results to match:
Based on self-reported surveys of Tree House Recovery graduates. Every recovery is different and individual results vary.
Our Program
Abstinence is just the jumping-off point. To make change last, you have to build a life you're excited to lead, so each person's program draws from eight integrated, evidence-based modalities that rebuild the whole person.
Exercise-saturated training that restores brain chemistry and discipline. Scalable to any fitness level, we meet you where you are.
Process trauma and rewrite the story you tell yourself, turning painful history into a foundation for change.
Beach, boat, and surf work tied to brain science and team dynamic. A differentiator no traditional center can match.
Private, focused sessions with licensed clinicians, built around your history, your goals, and your pace.
Honest conversation inside a trusted circle of peers.
Understand the science so relapse loses its grip.
Regulate the nervous system and quiet the cravings.
Apply new skills to daily life before you ever leave.
