12 Lodge Wellness · Ottawa residence · Opening 2027

Addiction treatment options for men from Edmonton

For men and families in Edmonton and northern Alberta considering residential treatment outside the province, explore what daily life and support at 12 Lodge would look like.

A small residence, far from everyday pressures

12 Lodge Wellness is planned for no more than ten men in one waterfront residence in Ottawa, opening 2027. It does not operate in Edmonton. Distance can help some men focus, but it also makes planning for family involvement and the return home especially important.

The 12 Lodge Method brings Reset, Balance and Wellness together through individual counselling, groups, family participation and continuing-care planning. The planned all-male residence has capacity for 10 residents.

Rotational work, shifts and planning ahead

If your work involves rotations or long shifts, discuss timing with admissions before making arrangements. An enquiry does not confirm a place or an arrival date. Ask your benefits provider about private out-of-province residential care before assuming coverage.

Questions to bring to admissions

  • How far ahead should I begin planning time away from work?
  • If withdrawal management is required, how should I arrange it in Alberta before travelling?
  • How can family who live in Edmonton take part?
  • Which supports near home could be part of my plan after discharge?

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

Returning to Edmonton

A return-home plan helps you carry Reset, Balance and Wellness into everyday life in Edmonton. 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 in Alberta

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.
