Wholeness: nothing broken, nothing missing.
Shalom is the Hebrew word for wholeness: nothing broken, nothing missing. House is the other half of the name, because recovery here is a return home.
House Shalom heals the inner person, so each client can come home to the healthy, whole, healed and joy-filled person they were created to be. That is the goal, and it is bigger than not using.
Working the script, not just teaching the skills.
Most people who come to us have already tried to stop. What brought them back was rarely a lack of information about drugs. It was the voice underneath: I’m not enough. Nobody is coming. If they really knew me, they’d leave.
We call that voice the Fear Script: the rule about self and others that early relationships wrote into a person. The substance became the fastest way to quiet it. House Shalom teaches the recovery skills every good program teaches, then works the script itself, in a group that becomes the kind of relationship that writes a new one.

What We Hold To
Medication is welcome.
We never require, encourage or pressure anyone to taper.
Faith is offered, never required.
House Shalom is Christian faith-based. We tell you in writing before admission, and any client may skip the faith elements with no effect on their care or their record.
A lapse is not a reason to leave.
It brings a same-week plan review and more support, not discharge.
Trauma-informed from day one.
Hard memories are worked through in individual sessions, not in group.
Our Mission & Vision
Journeying with people in unbecoming to become.
Rebuilding the inner self: mind, body, soul and spirit.
“Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.”
3 John 2 (ESV)
