Hot Springs

Residential Treatment 

Harbor House Hot Springs is situated in a beautiful wooded area just outside of Hot Springs National Park.  We offer residential substance abuse and behavioral health services for men and women.  This is a highly-structured living environment, consisting of up to six hours of group sessions daily, with weekly individual counseling and coaching sessions. A stay in residential care typically lasts about 28-30 days, with some variation depending on progress made.  Additionally, we offer Specialized Women’s Services (SWS), a 60-90 day program for expecting mothers and mothers of small children.  This modality involves all the elements of the traditional residential program, but with a greater emphasis on parenting skills, connecting with community resources, and household management. 

Transitional Living 

We also offer Transitional Living (TL) housing services, on campus as well as in downtown Hot Springs, for those who complete residential care and wish to continue their treatment.  TL offers a structured, supportive sober-living environment combined with outpatient treatment services to help ensure lasting success.  Participants can stay in TL up to 18 months. 

Our treatment team consists of dedicated, motivated individuals working together to provide evidence-based care targeted to the unique needs of persons served.  Our model is centered in Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, or ACT– a mindfulness- and acceptance-based behavioral therapy that capitalizes on the person’s core values to create life-saving change. We also utilize Living in Balance in our group education curriculum.  Supplemental groups on parenting, career & educational goals, anger management, and financial literacy–among other topics–are also provided in the residential setting. 

As with Harbor House’s other programs, eligibility for entry into our Hot Springs location is determined through a prescreening interview, usually by phone. .
