New England’s
Premier Addiction Treatment Program

Since 2002, The Plymouth House has been providing individuals and their families hope for a better life, free from addiction. We are not a treatment center in the traditional sense of the term. We are a 12-Step retreat, nestled in the gorgeous foothills of the White Mountains, where individuals come to disconnect and dive deep into working the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous.

Our founder, Tom S., believed wholeheartedly in the power of the 12 Steps to transform lives. The Steps give individuals the spiritual and emotional tools necessary to lead fulfilling, joyful, meaningful, love-filled lives. The Steps are a pathway leading to true, lifelong recovery.

In 2021, The Plymouth House joined Guardian Recovery Network, a leader in substance use disorder treatment with two decades of experience providing a full continuum of care for clients and their families throughout the recovery process. By joining Guardian Recovery Network, The Plymouth House was able to combine its expertise as a 12-Step retreat with Guardian’s world-class excellence in medical and clinical care.

Being a part of Guardian Recovery Network has allowed The Plymouth House to expand its medical and clinical staff to include primary care physicians, licensed psychiatrists, and experienced clinicians. This has opened the door for individuals wishing to cover the cost of treatment with health insurance. Now The Plymouth House excels in all areas — medical, clinical and the 12-Step recovery process.

About The Plymouth House Program

The Plymouth House has been a pioneer in utilizing the power of the 12 Steps to help individuals change. Many individuals seeking recovery when they land at The Plymouth House may have previously attempted some, or all, of the 12 Steps with little success. This is understandable. Trying to work the steps in the world-at-large while battling an addicted mind and the stressors of daily life can be very difficult.

The Plymouth House gives individuals the time, support and focus they need to complete the work on a new level, with professional guidance. While in our primary care program, guests at The Plymouth House work directly with both a dedicated therapist and 12-Step Contact to rigorously work the first seven of the 12 Steps. If a guest decides to continue in our extended care program, they will complete all 12 Steps.

In addition to working the Steps, Guests at the Plymouth House take part in a wide range of recovery-related activites, including:

The entire Plymouth House Program is geared toward catalyzing real, lasting personal change.

Excellent
Tatyana A.
I had an amazing experience at the Plymouth House. I did their detox, residential and PHP programs. I've been to many treatment centers and nothing had stuck until the Plymouth house. The staff are amazing--so knowledgeable and caring, many of them having gone through the Plymouth house themselves--the food is great, the facility is clean and well-run. However, what really makes the Plymouth house stand out is the way they take you through the 12 steps.

At the Plymouth house, they don't just get you sober. They go above and beyond by showing you how to live a fulfilling life in recovery, and that, to me, is what really sets the Plymouth house apart from other treatment centers. I would recommend the Plymouth house to anyone struggling with addiction.

To start. Plymouth House saved my life and my marriage. I was on path of destruction. Until I came here and had the best experience of my life. This place is like no other. Its unique teaching and program style is above any I’ve seen. The staff is amazing involved in every step. The personal team care each guest gets it’s an experience of its own. This place can and will change many more lives to come. I’m grateful to Plymouth house and the entire staff from the higher ups in the offices to the chefs in the kitchen. By the time you half way through it’s like you with family. This place is my second home. I will not forget this place or the people who make it as special as it is. Thank you Plymouth House.

As someone who fought like hell to “be normal”, I finally faced my reality that alcohol is my nemesis. I talked to therapists, read books, attended AA meetings but it wasn’t enough. I searched high and low for a “quick fix” but I kept hitting a wall. After speaking with a friend, it was recommended that I check out the Plymouth House in New Hampshire. Honestly, I was a bit afraid of taking this step but so glad I did. Little did I know, it would be the first of many steps.

I arrived on the beautiful scenic campus and was welcomed by some incredibly supportive staff. I was quickly scheduled with a provider, a therapist and a 12 step clinician and I was off to the races. The community was great and offered ongoing support for me and my peers. The work was hard but necessary to be on a solid road to recovery.

If you want it, I mean really want it….this is just the place for you. If you are struggling, I hope you have courage to pick up the phone and start an incredible journey of hope. You will be glad you did!

I would highly recommend The Plymouth House in terms of recovery needs. The Residential program is absolutely amazing, focusing on the 12 Step Program unlike anything I have ever encountered before. It has truly been a life changing experience for me!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about the Plymouth House. I came into the program not knowing what to expect, probably still in denial that I had an issue. The moment I walked in I knew I had made the right choice for my future. The staff is so kind and easy to talk to you. Not once do I feel judged or questioned on if this was the right choice for me. I have gained so many skills to help me not only stay sober but just to be able to cope with day to day life. I am truly grateful for the Plymouth house and the second chance at life it has given me.

The Plymouth House has been an experience I will never forget. I was so fortunate to be able to get the help I needed and will forever be grateful. I started in the residential program intending on staying for 28 days and quickly realized how special they are here. I quickly learned what the 12 steps are and started working on them. In 3 weeks I was ready to write my 4th step with the help of the staff here. I transitioned into the PHP program for an additional 2 weeks and experienced finishing my 4th step and also read it here completing my 5th, 6th, and 7th step before my discharge date. I recommend The Plymouth House to any and everyone who needs to recover from drugs or alcohol addiction.
