Description
Our Commitment
Since 1988 Prescott House has provided outstanding services to men and their families from across the country and abroad. Throughout the years we have found that long-term recovery is best achieved through long-term treatment in a nurturing and therapeutic environment. Prescott House is committed to providing precisely that: excellent clinical care in a close-knit recovery community. This commitment is founded on a firm belief in recovery of the mind, spirit, and body. Prescott House is a safe environment in which clients may confront their self-destructive behaviors and develop integrity and accountability while nurturing their personal and emotional growth in recovery. We as a staff work tirelessly to consider the whole person and to treat the causes of self-destructive behaviors and not simply the symptoms.
The Program
Prescott House is an Arizona state-licensed extended care treatment facility for men. Primarily, our program provides intensive treatment for addictions and other life problems for men who have completed primary treatment. The foundation of our philosophy is based on the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12-step programs. Length of stay, which varies considerably and is dependent upon client progress, averages between four and seven months as a resident. Each client will participate in over 18 hours of group therapy weekly. Clients will also be assigned a primary therapist with whom they will have weekly individual and group sessions. Later in treatment our clients will secure a part time job, volunteer commitment, or enrollment in school. Our program is community-oriented and clients attend local 12-step meetings on a daily basis. They will also work with a 12-step sponsor and become part of a larger recovery community. Our clients develop strong friendships within the Prescott House program as well, residing in apartment-style living quarters, purchasing their own groceries, and preparing their own meals.
Therapeutic Benefits / ED Program
Prescott House Therapy – Our clinical staff includes our Medical Director, Psychiatrist, two consulting psychologists, primary therapists, an eating disorder therapist, and family therapist, as well as four Certified Sex Addiction Therapists (CSAT). We also have a Ph.D-level spiritual advisor on staff who works with our clients every week. Our therapeutic model is communityâ;¨-based and very eclectic, utilizing experiential group therapy, family-of-origin therapy, and advanced educational groups. Throughout the week clients are encouraged to bring their community interactions and experiences to group sessions in order to receive feedback on practicing recovery skills. Since 2005 we have offered a unique program focused on men with eating disorders. We are collaborating on groundbreaking assessment tools and research for others in the field to utilize. We are grateful for the success we have seen in our clients who seek treatment at Prescott House for eating disorders.
