Sober Living

A Safe, Structured Path Toward Long-Term Recovery in Barrett

If you are searching for sober living services in Barrett, you have come to the right place. At Altura Recovery, we understand that transitioning back into everyday life after treatment can feel overwhelming. Located just a stone�s throw away from the heart of Houston, our sober living community offers a safe, supportive environment for those ready to take the next steps in their recovery journey. We are not just another treatment center; we are people who genuinely care about your well-being and are committed to helping you find your footing again. What makes our sober living services truly special is the personalized attention we provide. Each individual who walks through our doors receives tailored support based on their specific needs. Whether you are coming from a detox program in West University or have completed a more intensive inpatient treatment, we meet you where you are. Our experienced staff knows the challenges of recovery and works closely with you to develop a plan that incorporates life skills coaching, psychiatric support, and community engagement. We believe that recovery is not just about abstaining from substances; it is about rebuilding your life in a way that feels fulfilling and sustainable. One of the unique aspects of our sober living program is the emphasis on community. We understand that the journey to recovery can feel isolating, and that is why we encourage residents to connect with one another. Imagine sharing a cup of coffee on our patio while chatting about your favorite spots in the Galleria or discussing the best local restaurants in Bellaire. These moments of connection can be incredibly powerful. We have seen firsthand how friendships formed in our sober living environment have helped individuals stay accountable and motivated in their recovery. It is not just a place to stay; it becomes a community of support, friendship, and understanding. Another reason you should consider Altura Recovery is our commitment to providing evidence-based therapies. We incorporate approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) into our programs. These therapies have been proven effective in addressing the root causes of addiction and can help you develop healthier coping mechanisms. With us, you will not just be going through the motions; you will be actively engaging in your recovery process. We also recognize that flexibility matters. Life does not stop while you are in recovery, and that is why we offer flexible scheduling options, including day and evening sessions. Whether you have work commitments, family obligations, or school, we accommodate your schedule to ensure you can focus on your recovery without added stress. Our goal is to support you in balancing your responsibilities while prioritizing your health. Trust is a significant factor when choosing a sober living program. At Altura Recovery, we pride ourselves on being a trustworthy partner in your recovery journey. Our staff is highly trained and has extensive experience in addiction treatment and mental health support. We have a proven track record of helping individuals just like you find success in their recovery. Our approach is compassionate and understanding, making sure you feel supported every step of the way. Choosing a sober living program is a big decision, and it is important to find a place that feels right for you. Altura Recovery is dedicated to creating an environment where you can heal, grow, and thrive. We are here to listen to your needs and provide the resources that will help you succeed. You do not have to navigate this journey alone; we are here to walk alongside you.

Who Needs Sober Living?

Sober living isn’t just for people who have nowhere else to go. It’s for people who:

  • Are early in recovery and know they still need accountability and structure
  • Have completed PHP, IOP, or SOP and are stepping down gradually
  • Want to avoid returning to environments where substance use or toxic dynamics were present
  • Are rebuilding their lives after residential treatment, incarceration, or long-term instability
  • Are working, attending school, or reconnecting with family—and want support while doing so


Whether you’re a young adult navigating new independence or an adult starting over after decades of addiction, structured sober housing provides the consistency and support needed to stay on track.
