At Altura Recovery, we understand that you are looking for a supportive environment where you can rebuild your life while staying connected to your community. Our sober living program is designed with you in mind, offering the perfect balance of structure and independence. We know how important it is to have a safe space where you can focus on your recovery without the distractions and pressures that can come from everyday life. You may have heard stories from neighbors who have transformed their lives through programs like ours. Just last week, a local resident shared how our sober living community helped him reconnect with his family and find a job in nearby Bellaire. He mentioned how grateful he was for the support and friendships he formed while living with us. This is what our mission is all about: creating strong, lasting connections that go beyond just sobriety. At Altura Recovery, we pride ourselves on providing personalized care that caters to the unique needs of each individual. Whether you are just stepping out of detox or coming from an inpatient program, our experienced team is here to guide you every step of the way. We offer a structured environment that encourages accountability while allowing you to practice the skills you need for a successful transition back to daily life. With flexible scheduling and support that fits your life, you can attend our outpatient programs like PHP, IOP, and SOP while living in our sober community. What sets us apart is the integrated dual diagnosis and psychiatric support we offer. Many people in Houston, including those in areas like Galleria and West University, face challenges that go beyond addiction, such as mental health issues. Our trained professionals take the time to understand your specific situation and help you develop a comprehensive plan that addresses both your addiction and any underlying mental health concerns. You are not just another number to us; you are a valued individual deserving of care and understanding. Family support is another cornerstone of our program. We know that the journey to recovery does not happen in isolation. Our team works closely with families to help them understand the challenges of addiction and the recovery process. We provide resources and counseling that help families rebuild trust and communication, which is vital for long-term success. Being part of a community like Mission Bend means we can draw on local resources and connections that can help you in your recovery journey. Another aspect that many find reassuring is that we work with a variety of insurance providers, making our sober living services accessible to more people in the area. You do not have to worry about navigating complicated payment structures, as our team is ready to assist you in making the process as smooth as possible. Knowing that you have financial options allows you to focus on what truly matters: your recovery.

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.
