Provider's Policy

At Lantana Recovery Connecticut, treatment for Substance Use Disorder is covered by most commercial insurance policies both in and out of network. Lantana Recovery does not accept Medicare or Medicaid, but can work with most ObamaCare or HealthCare.gov policies.

Lantana Recovery is a Connecticut-based program for anyone struggling with drug or alcohol addiction. They offer different levels of support, like partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient care with sober living, depending on how much help someone needs. And they help clients navigate the real world and local culture while pursuing sobriety at the same time.

Practice Real Life without Doing it Alone

Rather than hiding people away in their room, Lantana gets them out into the community so they can practice living while they still have support in their corner. The team looks at the specific chaos addiction has caused, addressing family issues or work stress, and helps clients work through those triggers as they happen. Clients also get to hit a local meeting and try out new hobbies, so they can build a life they can manage once they’re on their own.

Find One’s Spark Again

At the New Milford center, the environment is meant to feel like a supportive home base. Clients aren't cut off from their lives; they can keep their phones to stay in touch with family or handle work, making the transition into treatment feel much less jarring. For those coming from out of town or who need extra support, there are comfortable sober living options that offer a safe, stable place to land while navigating the program.

Transition Back into Life with a Team in One’s Corner

Finishing a program is a win, but the real test happens once someone is back in their daily routine. Lantana stays involved with aftercare so nobody has to figure it out solo. With alumni meetups and a constant safety net of support, they help turn those first few months of sobriety into a way of life.

Build a Home Environment that Supports Healing
Build a Home Environment that Supports Healing
Addiction can leave families feeling exhausted and disconnected, but Lantana brings everyone into the healing process. Through workshops and group meetups, loved ones get to trade their anxiety for tools and a shared language of recovery. Lantana helps families mend trust at home so the whole family can repair.
Stop Carrying the Weight Alone
Stop Carrying the Weight Alone
Recovery can feel incredibly lonely, but it’s a lot easier when people are surrounded by those who get it. At Lantana, the community clients find is the real deal. By plugging into a group that shares the same struggles, clients trade that feeling of isolation for a built-in support system that keeps them going.
Experience a Dramatic Shift in How One Feels
Experience a Dramatic Shift in How One Feels
Lantana uses hard data to prove that their approach works. Most clients arrive feeling terrible, but those who stick with the program see their symptoms of depression and anxiety drop by over 60% by the time they leave. With satisfaction rates hitting 82%, it’s clear this is a place where people start feeling like themselves.
Heal in a Place Designed to Feel Like Home
Heal in a Place Designed to Feel Like Home
Lantana started back in 2018 because the founders realized Charleston, the founding city, had plenty of meetings, but nowhere safe to actually live and recover. It began as a single sober living house and grew into a full program that helps people bridge the gap between treatment and real life. Their history is built on the idea that healing should feel like coming home.
