Stability
Physical, emotional, and psychological safety through consistency, predictability, and a structured environment.
About Us
Care at Ryding House is built on stability, social integration, and interdependence.
Social integration
Re-connection to purpose and meaningful participation in community, including relationships and life beyond the program.
Interdependence
Giving and receiving support in healthy mutual relationships. Shared responsibility among peers, with staff who work with you, not over you.
Human experience is at the centre of every stay.
Anti-racist and anti-oppressive
Equity is embedded in policy, program, and decision-making from the ground up.
Trauma-and-violence-informed
Emotional and physical safety for residents and staff shapes clinical and day-to-day practice.
Relational
Warmth, connection, and mutual respect guide how staff and residents work together.
Evidence-informed
Therapeutic work is guided by research, clinical judgment, and knowledge gained through lived experience.
We offer a short stabilization stay and a full treatment program, depending on what you need.
Stabilization stay
3 to 10 days
We offer an optional, residential, withdrawal stabilization stay before the main program starts, so you can move into the main program immediately following stabilization.
Treatment stay
14, 21, 30, or 45 days
The main residential program. It is abstinence-oriented and based on relational principles of connection and interdependence. It is delivered through evidence-informed individual counselling, group therapy, life skills development, and therapeutic community living to support meaningful recovery.
