The Life Recovery House

The Life Recovery House caters women ages 21 and up who are battling substance use disorders. They are a licensed, faith-based halfway house offering 3.1 inpatient, non-hospital residential care. With a 6-month program, they guide each woman through recovery with structure, community, and spiritual support. They also have a 28-bed capacity and a 24/7 staff available.

Balance of Science and Spirituality

Their approach blends evidence-based therapy and spiritual care. Women take part in individual counseling, 12-Step and Christ-centered groups, relapse prevention, temperament therapy, and trauma-informed models. Daily prayer, Bible study, and meditation are also part of the program that they offer. Classes in life skills, nutrition, art, yoga, and drumming are also offered.

Meaningful Activities that Inspire Growth

Residents live in a home with shared rooms, clean bathrooms, and healthy meals. Outdoor views of the Appalachian Mountains bring peace, and nearby places like Ohiopyle and Falling Water offer fun, sober outings. Transportation is provided for off-site meetings, appointments, and activities. They are a faith-filled community that helps women grow, find purpose, and experience the joy of recovery.
