Sober Living for Young Adult Men

If you’re in the early stages of addiction treatment, living in a substance-free home with structure and stability can greatly benefit your recovery progress. A sober living house provides the safe space you need to heal, grow, and focus on recovering.

Sandstone Care’s home for sober living in Northern Virginia is specifically designed for young men (18-30) who are enrolled in Partial Hospitalization Programs or Intensive Outpatient Programs with us. Our home offers a supportive environment that balances accountability and freedom, and gives patients the opportunity to safely practice the skills they learn in treatment.

Plus, you’ll have a recovery community made up of peers who understand your journey and share your goals.

Break the Cycle With Sober Living

Getting treatment for addiction takes courage and bravery, but you don’t have to recover alone. Our Reston, Virginia recovery home provides a supportive and drug-free environment where you can focus on treatment without temptations and triggers of your typical environment.

At our sober living home, you’ll participate IOP or PHP treatment Monday through Friday in which you will learn how to maintain your sobriety and gain practical life skills. When you aren’t attending treatment, our trained house managers can provide extra support. On weekends, you’ll enjoy fun excursions with fellow sober residents.

From accountability to emotional coping skills, our sober living residence will allow you to gain the tools you need to feel confident in yourself and your recovery journey.

Choosing Sobriety and Accountability

“My life has improved in every aspect, I think because I’m not relying on something that could be so detrimental to me just to feel like myself… I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m still growing and I don’t have all the answers. And I’m okay with that.”

Taking the first step to overcoming addiction doesn’t have to be hard. Take some time to listen to Nico share his story of making the choice to pursue sobriety, along with the incredible ways his life has improved since.

If you’re considering a stay at one of our recovery residences, know that you aren’t alone and have a compassionate community cheering you on at Sandstone. Begin your journey by verifying your insurance or giving us a call.

Drug & Alcohol Treatment Options

Struggling with substance use or addiction? Our rehab centers can help.

Alcohol

The transition between recreational alcohol use and alcohol dependence can be a subtle one. But if you’re finding that you can’t stop drinking when you want to, you may have alcohol dependence.

Marijuana

Similar to alcohol use, smoking or ingesting marijuana has become normalized as a way to relax or take the edge off. When overused, it can make you feel unable to cope with life without using.

Stimulants

A stimulant is any drug that increases your central nervous system activity. Stimulants are used to heighten attention, hyperactivity, and alertness. Abuse of these drugs can lead to a variety of health problems.

Opioids

Opioids are a class of drugs that include synthetic opioids, pain killers, and the illegal drug heroin. These drugs, including prescription medications, are highly addictive.

Comfortable & Convenient

At Sandstone Care, we strive to provide you with a space to heal and grow during your time in treatment. Our recovery homes and treatment centers are designed with comfort and security in mind, so you can prioritize overcoming addiction.

Learning to Thrive

If you’re a young man (18-30) and you feel like your environment is triggering or that your family relationships are strained, a recovery living program can be a lifeline. Residential programs offer a substance-free environment where you can grow, gain independence, and develop essential life skills. Some of these key life skills include:

  • Emotional regulation
  • Relapse prevention
  • Healthy communication
  • Decision-making
  • Accountability
  • Building support

Our home for sober living in Virginia gives young men space to safely practice these skills with staff and other residents who are also exercising their newfound tools.

You will also build a strong community of peers who understand what you are going through in group therapy. Alongside our expert staff, you will create the support and accountability you need to reach lasting recovery.

Our Clients Experience Reduced Levels of Anxiety and Depression

At Sandstone Care, we know disorders like anxiety and depression can have a profound impact on one’s ability to enjoy life. That’s why our treatment programming addresses both addiction and mental health challenges.

In a recent study of people who completed treatment with us, the group reported a 57% decrease in anxiety symptoms. The same group also experienced a 78% decrease in symptoms of depression.

These are life changing numbers for our alumni. And for those experiencing addiction, they can be the difference between relapse and lasting recovery.
