About Next Chapter Recovery House

Next Chapter Recovery House is a small residential addiction and mental health recovery centre in Chiang Mai, northern Thailand. Founded in March 2024, the house accommodates approximately two to five residents, creating an intimate setting where care can be tailored to each person's recovery goals. Its programmes support adults experiencing substance use, trauma and co-occurring mental health concerns. Treatment combines evidence-based, holistic, experiential and trauma-informed approaches. Depending on individual needs, care may include one-to-one counselling, group work, CBT, DBT, EMDR, Internal Family Systems therapy, relapse prevention and family therapy. Mindfulness, yoga, creative therapies, fitness and life-skills development complement clinical sessions and help residents establish healthier daily routines. Life at the house extends beyond the therapy room. Residents can swim, exercise and practise yoga onsite, while excursions may include hiking, cycling, sightseeing, boxing, rock climbing and ziplining around Chiang Mai. These structured experiences encourage confidence, connection and enjoyment without alcohol or drugs. Accommodation includes air-conditioned rooms, ensuite bathrooms, internet access, comfortable communal areas, gardens and a swimming pool. The centre offers residential treatment, transitional living, sober living and recovery coaching, but it does not provide onsite medical detoxification. Anyone at risk of withdrawal should discuss appropriate detox arrangements with the admissions team before travelling.
