About Connecticut Center for Recovery
Connecticut Center for Recovery helps clients begin their journey to recovery through outpatient care for addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions. They offer multiple levels of support—including day treatment, intensive outpatient programs (IOP), and extended care—tailored to each client’s needs.
Connecticut Center for Recovery blends the 12-Step model with evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and trauma resolution. Their approach fosters love, peace, patience, and acceptance—helping clients shift focus from addiction to building a positive life. Through individual and group therapy, family counseling, peer support, life-skills training, and, when needed, medication, clients gain healthy coping tools and address the root causes of mental health and substance use challenges.
Connecticut Center for Recovery offers day treatment and IOP programs—including a convenient telehealth IOP—for clients needing structured care without full-time residential support. Through individual and group therapy, family involvement, and holistic services, clients address core mental health and addiction issues while living at home or in sober housing. These programs support steady reintegration and reduce relapse risk—whether beginning recovery or stepping down from higher levels of care.
Connecticut Center for Recovery offers thoughtful aftercare to support long-term healing. Clients can continue weekly one-on-one therapy for up to a year and stay connected through alumni programming that includes peer support and occasional reunions. This ongoing connection helps maintain progress, strengthen community bonds, and ease the transition into independent, sustained recovery.

Connecticut Center for Recovery offers a family program that strengthens healing through education, communication, and shared growth. Families learn about addiction’s impact, how to support recovery, and how to navigate triggers together. Sessions may include both clients and loved ones, fostering connection and accountability while building skills for life after treatment.
A typical day at Connecticut Center for Recovery blends routine with variety. Day treatment includes full-day clinical programming—individual therapy, group sessions, and psychoeducation from morning through early evening. IOP offers the same services in a shorter, 3-hour format, in either the morning or evening. Both options create rhythm, support, and space for growth.
Connecticut Center for Recovery offers limited supportive housing for up to 10 clients in a suburban, pet-friendly setting just minutes from outpatient care. With shared bedrooms, communal meals, and staff onsite, sober living balances structure with independence—ideal for those rejoining the workforce or starting school while staying grounded in treatment and daily recovery practices.
Connecticut Center for Recovery offers extended care for clients needing continued support after day treatment or IOP. Whether due to ongoing physical or mental health challenges or simply not feeling ready to return home, the team works with each client to develop a time frame that is likely to be effective in their situation.
