Odyssey House Residential

The Basics

Odyssey House, located in Salt Lake City, is the largest substance abuse treatment provider in Utah. Offering inpatient, outpatient and sober living services to adolescents, men and women with children, and single adults, Odyssey House is a comprehensive treatment facility. The adult residential program aims to create a sober foundation for men and women with substance abuse issues.

Accommodations and Food

The accommodations and treatment at Odyssey House are in the same facility. Between 25 and 30 men and women are housed separately in shared dual-occupancy rooms. Each client gets a twin-sized bed, desk and cabinet for storage—all bathrooms are communal. Living areas include recreation rooms with cable TVs, games and computers.

The kitchen is cafeteria-style and provides three meals a day with healthy options (such as fruit for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and salads for dinner.)

Treatment and Staff

Potential Odyssey House clients are interviewed to determine which therapies and group topics will be most beneficial to their individual recovery. The program length varies per individual, but is typically six to nine months. Treatment is individualized using a modified Therapeutic Community (TC) model with a dual diagnosis option. Clients attend two group sessions per day, one individual session per week and family counseling as needed. Various types of therapies are used in group sessions including CBT, DBT, dual-diagnosis enhanced, mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing (MI). Employment counseling, independent living skills, relapse prevention, and medication management are also addressed.

Extras

In addition to their comprehensive inpatient program, Odyssey House offers an outpatient program and a transitional housing community. Recreational opportunities are offered to clients, with options such as daily walks, yoga sessions, seasonal sports competitions and other supervised activities.

The Odyssey House vocational training program provides training so clients can learn trades such as upholstery, painting and building.

In Summary

Those looking for an inpatient program that combines comfortable housing with multiple treatment tracks will be well served at Odyssey House. With comprehensive, holistic and evidence-based treatment options, as well as relapse prevention and sober living options post-treatment, Odyssey House gives clients every hope of long-term sobriety.
