About Westminster House

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.
