I learned about Prescott House about 5 years ago when looking into treatment options for my son, who had been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for about 10 years. My son opted against P-House at the time due to the lengthy program duration, and ended up at another treatment center in Prescott. He did get and stay sober for a good length of time, but many of his underlying issues – particularly unresolved trauma – continued to fester and he struggled to remain sober, and cycled through several periods of dangerous, life-threating relapse and recovery before landing at Prescott House about 6 months ago. He felt hopeless and angry and was very resistant to entering the program, but with help and support from the Prescott House staff we were able to convince him to enter. I remember overhearing a conversation between him and a staff member who said “Come here and let us help you put this sh*! Behind you!” Not eloquent, but for someone who had lost hope, it resonated. Thus began the difficult work of recovery.
I can’t say enough about the program and staff at Prescott House. The staff is comprised almost entirely of former clients who have turned their lives around; not only do they “walk the walk”, they are living, breathing examples of how to live a satisfying and sober life (not a perfect life or a life without problems, mind you). I can’t overemphasize the importance of this unique aspect of the P-House program. Another important part of the program is the strong emphasis on evidence-based treatment modalities, including individual and group counseling, education, life skills, community engagement, work and volunteer activities. The counselors are absolutely top-notch, with decades of experience working in the field; most of them have been at P-House for many years (in some cases decades), so are very skilled at navigating the multitude of challenges that the clients bring. The final element of P-House that is so beneficial to recovery is the strong sense of community that is at the heart of everything. In particular, the all-male environment fosters strong and lasting relationships that provide the framework and support at the heart of any good therapeutic environment.
Prescott House has given my son the gift (very literally) of life. He just celebrated his 6-month sobriety anniversary last week. Although we never know what the future might bring, the Prescott House has helped him develop the tools he will need as he continues on the path of recovery.
I strongly encourage anyone looking at addiction treatment programs for themselves or for loved ones to choose Prescott House.
We are forever grateful that our son made the decision to go to Prescott House. The staff has been nothing but professional, knowledgable and supportive from day 1. We appreciate the community of support both within Prescott House as well as the entire Prescott community. This was not his first treatment program, but by far the most influential in his recovery.
Prescott House and the skilled and compassionate staff and therapists there helped save my life. A google review is an inadequate forum for expressing what happens in their program and how it works. The best I can say is that I had been unable to achieve recovery and wellness in 5 previous residential treatment programs, and that Prescott House provided the context, community, and astute clinical treatment I needed in order to heal. Thank you.
Prescott House is a very impressive rehabilitation center in Prescott, Arizona. My 44 year old son was a patient there for over a year. It was a life changing experience and successful for him. He remains in the town of Prescott as after graduation, there is such a strong support system throughout the town. The staff, directors, and office personnel are terrific, personable and very professional. I was especially impressed with therapist Chris and Jeff, my son's leaders. They helped us both negotiate the "minefields of life" as my son reached sobriety. I strongly recommend Prescott House.
We are so grateful 7 years plus (2019) that our beautiful son has completed the entire program, remained sober and made the facility and helping others his focus. From the third month into this program he said, "Mom I'm so into my recovery! This is what I want to do with my life."(See attached photo I took from that day). He is now a staff member for the past several years working with other men there! So proud of him and so grateful Prescott House was introduced to us by friends. The referring friend told us "GET THEM THE HELP THEY NEED OR GO TO THEIR FUNERAL." This is an investment well worth the amazing outcome. You can't put a price on life! Because of Prescott House our beautiful handsome son is alive and successful and giving back to all who meet him. Thanks P House! 5 stars is not nearly enough. I tell folks all the time that the person I admire the most in my life is my son, for completing this tough program and becoming the fantastic young man I always knew he was. Prescott House gave him the focus and the push he needed to succeed in daily life. He now has a beautiful fiance as well!
