The Living House

The Living House is a sober living program that offers a 4-phased approach along with recovery coaching in a beautiful tropical environment. The Living House was developed in 2012 to provide the structure needed for long-term recovery in a safe and sober space, where clients can learn to live and practice the tools of recovery. The Living House is the first of its kind, operating on a 4-phased reintegration program and designed to accommodate a range of clients while maintaining high standards. The 4-phased approach accommodates people who are at different stages in their recovery. Each phase has requirements that residents are expected to have achieved before being able to move onto the next phase. Phases are monitored weekly by the house manager and The Living House recovery coach.
The initial focus at The Living House is for clients to engage in daily recovery structures, habits, and routines such as finding a 12-Step fellowship sponsor, participating in the morning meditation, meeting with a counsellor on focus groups, and going to 12-Step meetings. The basic expectations are waking up by 8:00 A.M. Monday through Friday, attending house meetings, actively engaging in work/study or researching opportunities, completing individual and communal duties, and attending individual private therapy sessions. These daily structures aim to imitate a real life routine which makes the transitional period into society easier.
The Living House facility is truly spectacular. Situated in the lush greenery of Cape Town, South Africa, it boasts of beautiful views of the Table Mountains. The awe-inspiring facility is also close to Kirstenbosch Gardens, offering a great space to keep physically active and in touch with the beautiful surrounding nature. The up-scale home provides luxurious accommodations and private bedrooms along with gorgeous communal spaces like a modern kitchen and dining room. Clients will enjoy a recreation room with a ping pong and a pool table and an on-site pool with plenty of garden space, perfect for soaking up the sun.

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. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like The Living House provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

The Living House offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 4 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Group Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. The Living House works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
