Choosing a centre away from home

Compare length of stay, curriculum, family involvement and aftercare, as well as cost. Published rates are private; ask your benefits provider about coverage before assuming any applies. An enquiry does not confirm admission.

Questions to bring to admissions

  • How would you assess whether residential treatment is right for me?
  • What withdrawal-management arrangements would I need before admission?
  • Which suite and stay length would suit my situation?
  • How would continuing care work in my province?

12 Lodge will not initially offer in-house medical detox. Any required withdrawal management must be completed with appropriate providers before residential admission. Do not travel on the assumption that an enquiry confirms a place or an arrival date.

Review eligibility and the application process

Continuing care in your province

Aftercare can include approved outside practitioners wherever you live in Canada. Included after successful completion: 20 one-hour therapy sessions with an approved outside practitioner within three months of discharge, plus twelve Lodge continuation sessions (one one-hour video appointment through myLodge with your chosen Lodge counsellor each month for twelve months), twelve months of structured online groups and lifetime digital Haven access. All outside practitioners require approval; other services have their own access and costs.

Finding support across Canada

These independent services can help you explore local options. A listing is not a referral partnership or a promise of admission. Free navigation does not mean all treatment is free.

For an immediate emergency, call 911. If you are thinking about suicide or concerned about someone else, call or text 988 in Canada.
