About The Cottages – Huntington Beach
The Cottages is a sober living facility with available outpatient addiction treatment for adult women in Huntington Beach, California. The peaceful, coastal setting helps you heal your mind, body, and spirit. You get regular counseling if you participate in the outpatient program, but the main focus at the Cottages is holistic health and wellness.
Being a sober living house, there are specific rules you have to follow that are related to being respectful of everyone in the house. You have to work a 12 step program and abstain from drugs and alcohol of any kind. Prescription meds can be approved by the head of the house. You also will need to either work or look for work or be in an outpatient program to avoid having too much idle time.
The beach offers a lot of opportunities for recreation. There’s even a dedicated beach for dogs to play on! The city’s Central Park has activities like disc golf, horseback riding, a dog park, and a library. You can watch seasonal plays and walk in the park to watch the ducks. There are also a wide variety of recovery groups in the area as well as sober activities.
The staff can also help you by offering career counseling services that cover topics such as how to write a resume, where to look for jobs, and how to conduct an interview. They can also help clients who are unable to work secure volunteer positions around the community.
