About Link House

Link House offers inpatient treatment for individuals with alcohol and/or substance addiction. The progam includes individual and group therapy, daily self-help meetings, individualized treatment and more. Link House is located at Newburyport, Massachusetts.

The Link House is located in the heart of downtown Newburyport, with immediate walking access to stores, shops, hospital and medical offices, churches and synagogues, YWCA, and numerous parks, river and beach access.

The Link House is funded through the Massachusetts Department of Public Health-Bureau of Substance Abuse Services. After a resident client is able to re-enter the workforce, he will pay a portion of the treatment fees that equals less than half of his income. This money is then funded back to the Department of Public Health in order to care for future clients.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient programs are designed for clients who are medically stable and not at an elevated risk of relapse, including those who have already completed inpatient care. Outpatient programs typically advance clients' established treatment plans, offering continuing addiction counseling and recovery education. Clients who enter outpatient care immediately following detox may also receive medical and mental health assessments and personalized treatment plans. Most outpatient rehabs provide multiple levels of care to align with clients' unique needs.

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Addiction is a highly complex problem, and drug rehab in Massachusetts is often necessary to address it. These programs treat physical, mental, and relational issues that are involved. Treatment empowers individuals to manage these issues without the use of drugs.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

substance-abuse iconSubstance Abuse

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

This program is not a good one, unfortunately. They do not give clear reasons for why a person can or cannot be treated. Also, they shared my health information inappropriately with someone else in my household when they called. They were not receptive to my feedback that th ... Read More

I would NOT trust my child or loved one at this facility. I may just sound like a disgruntled ex-employee but that is further away from the truth. Manipulation and favoritism runs rampant at this program not just amongst the staff that are very unprofessional and unqualified ... Read More

I was treated very well in link house. I graduated around June of 1975 and have been sober for 45 years. Larry Quinn was director when I was there and Neil was assistant director. I appreciated all the help from everyone. I was unemployable and on welfare. I now have three children and am retired from postal service with 32 years. I go to A.A. meetings to this day. I am very grateful to link house

Terrible place would not recommend to my worst enemy suffering from addiction. Place needs a overhaul by someone that knows what they're doing. If you care about your loved one in recovery do them a favor and try a place that doesn't encourage their patients to be on narcotics or whatever they want basically. Favoritism and manipulation is a real serious problem that should be addressed by someone in power of this company. i understand certain things need to be done to keep the doors open but when the clients call the shots and the person in power follows like a puppy something needs to be done.
