From people who recovered here
Our Sober Living Reviews
Walking through those doors the first day, my hands wouldn't stop shaking. Alcohol destroyed my relationships and left me completely isolated. Thankfully, the counselors here actually listened instead of lecturing. Sitting in these exact group circles changed everything for me. Hearing other people share their raw, real struggles made the loneliness disappear. Celebrating six months sober today. This place gives you your life back.
Coming here felt like a massive leap into the unknown, especially dealing with all that shame I carried around. The team at Ascend Recovery Center didn't treat me like a problem to be solved, but a person worth helping. There were days I wanted to pack my bags and bolt, but the support here kept me grounded. Now, I actually wake up without that weight on my chest. It's hard to put into words, but this place truly changed my trajectory.
Had an amazing experience here, one of the most personable groups of people to come to for recovery and truly helped me with developing the tools necessary to start my recovery. Did the 10 day detox and got exactly what I wanted out of the experience: healthy nutrition, great groups, and even your own personal TV in the rooms to help pass the time. If you're serious about your recovery and want a wholesome, worthwhile and safe place to do it, I recommend coming here.

Treatment timeline
What to Expect in Sober Living at Ascend?
1. Discussing housing options
While a client is in treatment, the admissions or case management team reviews whether a recovery residence fits the situation and how it would work alongside continued outpatient care.
2. Matching with a community partner
As a client steps down, the team helps connect them with a local community housing partner, since these residences are coordinated through partners rather than provided directly by Ascend.
3. Housing alongside outpatient care
A client lives in a substance-free residence with peer accountability while attending intensive outpatient or outpatient treatment, so structure at home and clinical work support one another.
4. Transition to independent living
As recovery stabilizes, the residence serves as a bridge toward independent living, with case management help connecting resources and benefits along the way.

How admissions works
Our Sober Living Admission Process
Call our confidential line
One conversation covers a first screening, insurance verification, and scheduling. Support begins with the first call, and nothing shared is used against the person who reaches out.
Clinical assessment
Evidence-based screenings, including PHQ-9, GAD-7, the Columbia Suicide Screening, and an ASAM level-of-care assessment, match each client to the right program.
The right level of care
If medically supervised detox is needed, the team coordinates a safe arrival with 24/7 nursing. If an outpatient level fits, care starts there instead.
Start treatment
Once a plan and coverage are confirmed, treatment begins, with therapy and medication where appropriate carrying through each level of care.
