About Living Now Sober Living

Living Now Sober Living focuses on wellness and recovery using creative tools and activities in a community setting. Residents are given a sense of accountability and healthy coping mechanisms, focusing on holistic healing, daily meditation, goal setting, participation in the 12-Step program, and weekly drug testing. Minutes from the Venice Beach Boardwalk, residents have access to several opportunities for employment, fitness establishments, skateparks, and Muscle Beach. Their community-focused program provides daily check-ins, weekly outings, and peer support groups along with family-integrated case management services. Living Now strives to provide the highest quality transitional living services at the most affordable cost in a desirable and healing setting.
Living Now works hand-in-hand with Thrive Treatment, an outpatient and aftercare addiction treatment center available to their residents. The clinical staff at Thrive has over 30 years of expertise, offering a well-rounded healing experience and a solid foundation on which recovery can continue to be built and supported. The outpatient program uses evidence-based treatment methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), which helps patients process and discard self-defeating behaviors. Their holistic and trauma-focused approach also incorporates practicing mindfulness and meditation techniques. Their outpatient support along with their safe and sober living environment helps residents gain the accountability, life skills, and coping mechanisms needed to achieve success in long-term recovery.
Living Now offers transitional support for residents in the process of moving from sober living and into their independent lives with their mentoring program. Their mentoring program keeps alumni in contact with each other offering continued recovery support and accountability. Participants can set both weekly and long-term goals, have continued access to drug testing and medication monitoring, and receive financial and career guidance to continue growth and success in recovery.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year.

Facilities like Living Now Sober Living provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)
