Plymouth House

Plymouth House offers one of the more complete care continuums available in New Hampshire, taking individuals from medical detox through residential treatment, Partial Hospitalization (PHP), and into an outpatient program — all within the same recovery community. For people who are planning a longer treatment stay rather than a short-term stabilization, that continuity matters. Staying connected to the same staff, peers, and philosophy as you step down through levels of care is very different from being discharged and starting over somewhere new.

The center operates 24 hours a day and treats alcohol addiction, opioid addiction, stimulant addiction, painkiller addiction, trauma and PTSD, and co-occurring disorders. Aftercare addiction treatment programs extend support beyond the formal treatment episode — an important feature for anyone building a durable recovery rather than simply completing a program.

Plymouth House is built around the integration of intensive 12-step work and personal therapy. The therapeutic lineup includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy — methods that address both the behavioral patterns of addiction and the underlying trauma or co-occurring conditions that often accompany it. Life skills training and relapse prevention planning are incorporated throughout the program to prepare residents for life after treatment.

Recreational therapy, yoga, meditation, and fitness and nutrition programming are also part of the daily experience at Plymouth House. The 7-acre campus provides a genuine residential environment — with housing, a dining hall, cafeteria, lounges, and a fitness room — that supports the kind of immersive, community-oriented recovery that longer-term treatment requires.

Plymouth House serves men and women, and specifically includes programming accessible to Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals — a population that is frequently underserved in addiction treatment settings. Conditions treated span alcohol addiction, opioid addiction, stimulant addiction, painkiller addiction, trauma and PTSD, and co-occurring disorders, reflecting the reality that most people entering residential treatment are dealing with more than one clinical issue.

Payment options include private insurance and self-pay. The center draws from across New Hampshire, offering a residential setting that removes individuals from their home environment while keeping them connected to a structured recovery community. Family therapy is part of the program, recognizing that recovery rarely happens in isolation from the people closest to someone in treatment.

Completing a residential treatment or PHP program is a significant milestone — but for most people in recovery, it is not the finish line. Plymouth House offers aftercare addiction treatment programs designed to maintain the momentum built during formal treatment. This kind of structured support after discharge is a core feature for anyone evaluating a recovery center as a long-term partner rather than a short-term fix.

The step-down structure at Plymouth House — from residential treatment to PHP to outpatient — means that many alumni remain connected to the center's community even as their level of clinical support decreases. That ongoing relationship with a recovery community is one of the more practical advantages of choosing a center with a full continuum of care.
