About this facility
Westminster House is a non-profit charity that offers addiction recovery services for youth girls, adult women, and their families. They provide a 90-day residential program, a youth program, a virtual program, a dialectical behavioral program, and a smoking cessation program. Their continuum of care includes a mental health assessment, individual and group counseling, peer support, balanced diet and nutrition, recreation, socialization, family support, and continuing care and access to educational opportunities post-treatment.
The 90-day program has a broad range of services based on the biopsychosocial model and is complemented with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and 12-Step philosophy. Clients will learn introspective writing and participate in motivational interviewing. Each client has a dedicated counsellor and support worker. Group therapy is 6 days per week and includes drug and alcohol education.
Adult women and young adult women are housed separately in a quiet residential neighborhood. Homes are cozy and fully-furnished with comfortable, spacious living areas. Five vegetarian meals are provided using organic, fresh ingredients. Since 1991, Westminster House has been passionate about helping women find freedom from addiction.
