Prescott House Recovery Testimonials-Rehab

My P house story. I'm not going to lie, I struggled through The House. I originally landed at the Prescott House due to fear of prison time. I had been arrested again, only this time it wasn't a misdemeanor. In a drunken, drugged up state I robbed the apartment of a person I felt owed me, and along with my drunk friend found myself charged with two felonies. My great enabling parents quickly sent me out to rehab to avoid immediate jail time. Although I did not know until after I graduated, the charges were dropped because the defendant's failure to show in court.

So needless to say I wasn't at the Prescott House because I "was done". It took months for me to see that I did not want the life I had before I got sober. I spent the first few months just trying to skate by on compliance with rules and hoped that I would soon be able to leave and go back to the only thing I knew as life. I think just the amount of time that the long term treatment provided, afforded me a new perspective on life. I ceased craving the dismal existence of oblivion and began to have some kind of hope for my future. I had never given much thought to what I really wanted to do in life.

Men & Eating Disorders...Self Image Issues - Men

Eating disorders are not typically associated with men in our society, but we have encountered several men in our program over the years struggling with body image issues, binge eating issues, and excessive exercising issues.

In more severe cases, we have encountered men with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and other forms of eating disorders as well as men who use steroids. We have found that addressing issues with food and body image, along with balanced nutrition, can be crucial to a healthy recovery.

Prescott House addresses these issues for men with our " Eating Disorders Program "...read more.

Prescott House Addiction Treatment & Extended Care Rehab Program for Men Only

The primary component of the program is the group therapy experience. Clients participate in at least 12 structured therapy groups each week as well as working individually with a primary therapist. Another piece of our program is volunteer service work in the local community until a client is therapeutically ready to get a part time job or take classes at one of our three local colleges. Also, clients are given written assignments that will facilitate an experience in process groups, including personal inventories of past behavior. The clients work together as a therapeutic community to confront unhealthy behavior while providing each other with the primary support group they will need in early recovery.

At Prescott House clients are given a safe environment that will facilitate the process of confronting their self-destructive behaviors while nurturing their personal and emotional growth in recovery. Our program is based primarily on process oriented experiential group therapy. Much of the work done here centers around cognitive behavioral restructuring. The intensive and highly structured environment allows staff the opportunity to look at the whole person and treat the causes of self-destructive behavior and not simply the symptoms.

Prescott House is a unique community that models and educates clients on healthy and supportive interpersonal skills that must be used to foster a new lifestyle in recovery. Clearly the old life style was not working, and changing everything is a frightening and extensive process that we believe takes several months to begin.
