About Good Shepherd Recovery House
The recovery house offers a Christ-centered, THOR-approved (Transitional Housing for Offender Reentry) and state-licensed 12-month residential recovery program for men ages 18 to 60 seeking deep, lasting change. Nestled on 36 wooded acres in Jasper, Georgia, about an hour north of Atlanta, the peaceful setting fosters focused healing and personal growth. The program begins with three months of intensive treatment without work, followed by a phase where residents actively seek employment and apply recovery principles in daily life, supported by experienced staff and a strong peer community. The program combines Christ-based 12 Steps, spiritual discipleship, and practical life skills to promote emotional, behavioral, and spiritual healing.
Therapies include certified anger management, trauma therapy using bottom-up and top-down approaches, temperament therapy, life pattern therapy, moral reconation therapy, matrix relapse prevention, matrix early recovery, and codependency recovery. Clients participate in Celebrate Recovery groups, inner healing, spiritual gift discovery, and both individual and family counseling. Educational options such as GED prep, computer skills, financial literacy, and construction training empower men to build a stable future. The program enforces a no smoking, dipping, or vaping policy, allowing gradual nicotine weaning with patches or gum. This comprehensive, faith-based program equips men to overcome addiction and rebuild fulfilling lives rooted in purpose and community.
At Good Shepherd Recovery House, being "THOR approved" means that the facility is officially listed in Georgia’s Transitional Housing for Offender Reentry (THOR) directory. This directory, maintained by the Georgia Department of Community Supervision, includes community-based housing options for individuals transitioning from incarceration or under probation/parole supervision.
