About Serenity House
Serenity House Inc in Chippewa Falls is built for people who need more than a quick reset. This is a long-term recovery environment for adults who are dealing with alcohol or drug use disorders, including opioid addiction, especially when mental health challenges are a part of the picture too.
Serenity House works with both men and women and provides gender-specific support for women who need it.
Care That Supports Real-life Recovery
Serenity House offers residential long-term substance abuse treatment, meaning people can stay for more than 30 days and focus fully on recovery. That extended time really matters, especially for people who have struggled with relapse or unstable living situations in the past.
They also provide outpatient services, which help people continue treatment while beginning to reintegrate into everyday life. The program also functions as a halfway house or a sober living environment. It gives people a safer bridge between intensive treatment and full independence while maintaining accountability.
Dual Diagnosis Support
I believe one really important part of Serenity House’s approach is its support for people with co-occurring disorders. Many people in addiction recovery are also managing anxiety, depression, trauma and other mental health conditions. Serenity House recognizes that substance use and mental health don’t exist in separate boxes and that by addressing both, they help people to build a more stable foundation for recovery.

Addiction Treatments
Treatments
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.
The goal of drug rehab in Wisconsin is to address drug addiction as a complex issue that involves physical, mental, and relational aspects. During rehab, treatment focuses on each of these areas and gives you the tools you need to achieve and maintain sobriety.
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
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.
Programs
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
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.
