When I came to live free I was homeless, I used to live free for everything they offered the 1 on 1 counciling, the classes that taught me about my about my negative behaviors and how to change them. I learned about my disease of alcoholism and what I needed to do to get on the road to recovery from my alcoholism. Today my life has changed so much, I have 2 years sober I have gotten my license back after 14 years, I have been able to repair my credit and now own my first brand new car. I have been going to SNHU for going on 2 years I am going to get a bachelor's degree in psychology with a concentration in mental health and substance abuse. I work in the field of recovery. I now get to help others detoxing so they to can start repairing themselves like I did. I've gained so much from just taking that first step and entering Live Free. Best decision I ever made. - Marcus.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Inpatient

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.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) offer high-level transitional support for clients exiting inpatient rehab. They can also be effective for clients at significant relapse risk Intensive outpatient treatment typically involves between nine and 20 hours of care per week, with the frequency and intensity of treatment decreasing as clients progress in their recovery. Most IOP clients participate in a combination of psychotherapy, recovery education, holistic therapies, and, for some, medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Sober Living Homes

Residents of a sober living home in New Hampshire commit to abstaining from drug and alcohol use and to abiding by the house rules. This communal living environment, also called a halfway house, provides a supportive community where people in recovery can start a new life free from substances. Typical house rules include individual room maintenance, shared meal times, curfews, and 12-step meeting attendance.

Partial Hospitalization Program

If you need short-term intensive rehabilitation care that allows you to return home at the end of the day, a partial hospitalization program (PHP) is the ideal solution. PHP provides structured programming that typically includes therapeutic services, relapse prevention, and medication management. Typically, treatment can run between 3-5 days a week for an average of 90 days. The cost for a partial hospitalization program can vary, but is often covered by providers.

Medically Assisted Detox

The aim of a medically supervised detox is to minimize withdrawal symptoms while removing alcohol and drugs from your system under 24/7 medical supervision and keep you as safe and as comfortable as possible. Medical detox is usually the first step in the recovery process as a whole, and it can take about 5-7 days to complete. This process is usually at least partially covered by most insurance plans.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Cognitive behavioral therapy in New Hampshire involves several steps to healing. The therapist will first help you identify stressful conditions currently in your life. You'll then identify your thoughts and beliefs about these challenges. Next, you'll identify inaccurate thoughts, and lastly you'll change those thought patterns, which will lead to changed behavior.

Dialectical behavior therapy is a form of talk therapy. While it's similar to cognitive behavioral therapy, it adds a focus on intense emotions. Its goal is to help you learn to manage difficult feelings and make positive changes.

People experience long term benefits from group therapy sessions that build a strong support network and create lasting connections that you can use throughout your recovery efforts. Building relationships within a group therapy environment helps enhance your social skills and reduce your stress levels, all contributing to promoting sobriety.

Individual therapy is available to people in New Hampshire seeking drug and alcohol addiction treatment. This offers a personalized approach to understanding your background and triggers. During therapy, you and your therapist collaborate to develop effective coping strategies that ensure you receive a comprehensive approach to foster lasting change.

The focus of family therapy in New Hampshire is to strengthen the family unit by fostering mutual support among the members. Each member learns effective communication strategies that help to create a nurturing environment. This strength and family bonds and supports your loved one's path to recovery.

Live Free was absolutely life changing for me, this is a serious program that is extremely focused on recovery but also laid back enough to not make it overwhelming. I have been to a few PHP programs and none of them even came close to comparing to Live Free. There s a lot of sobriety time accumulated within the staff, therefore their experience makes it a lot more impactful because they have been at rock bottom also. I have found it very difficult to learn how to cope with the grips of addiction from someone who s never experienced it themselves, and that s not the case at live free. During this program I developed many lifetime friendships with staff and clients that will last a life time. I cannot say enough about the two gentlemen who run the show, Phil and Tony, these two are what kept me in the program, due to the fact that after programming when you d return to the sober house they would be there to guide you with any issues, which is extremely important because most programs leave you with lots of idle time upon return to the sober house which leads to isolation that s deadly in early recovery. They were there to talk and would do anything for the well-being of the clients. This is what signified the greatness of this program, the lack of isolation and balance of structure included in programming and also in the sober living portion.

Casey, Thank you so much for your review of our recovery center! We are glad to hear that you had a positive experience with us. We here at Live Free Recovery take the reviews of our clients very seriously as we believe that every client of ours deserves the highest quality of care. If you or anyone you know is ever in need of addiction treatment again, we hope that you will once again consider receiving it here with us.

I needed to make changes in my life so I reached out to Live Free. I was reluctant to go right away but they had a bed for me before I was even done with intake. Their staff consistently go way above and beyond to help and be there for me and others in this really difficult time. I couldn't ask for more. I have since moved from their 28 day program to IOP sober living. And I attribute much of my success to their amazing program and people I have been graced with. I very much recommend this program to anyone who is ready for to take the step to better their life!

Thank you so much for your review, Sam! If you ever need anything, please feel free to reach out to us!
