Avenues Recovery Center at New England

I had an amazing experience at Avenues Recovery in Concord, NH. The staff is incredibly supportive and truly cares about the people who come through their program. There were also lots of fun activities that made my time there enjoyable and helped create a great sense of community. A special shoutout to Beth, the Alumni Coordinator! She is absolutely awesome and puts so much effort into making the alumni program something special. She makes staying connected after treatment fun, welcoming, and supportive. You can tell she genuinely cares about everyone and wants to see people continue to succeed. I’m very grateful for my experience at Avenues Recovery and for all the support I received. I would definitely recommend Avenues Concord to anyone looking for a supportive, positive place for recovery!

This program has genuinely changed my life. I'm not from New hampshire and I was new to rehab, but Avenues welcomed me with open arms. They gave me hope when I felt like I had already lost everything. The structure here was what I needed after being out of control for so long. The groups filled me with information that helped me grow in my recovery and as a person. The staff here are amazing and they care so much. Not just because it's their job, but because they understand. Jackie, Lexii, Justin, Bryan H., Beth, Serene, Jess, and my therapist Kate. They have helped me get through my roughest challenges and I'm so grateful I made the decision to come here. The alumni group is great here. They have fun activities and meaningful moments with one another. I'm very happy to be apart of avenues alumni thanks to Beth and Steve K. I am deeply grateful for Avenues.

Holy cow what an amazing experience. I came to this recovery community from Colorado, not knowing what to expect and questioning everything. The team here in New Hampshire is so welcoming, so gracious and so supportive. I felt like I was home, surrounded by family who cares about me, my story and my recovery. This isn't just a journey to sobriety, this is a mental health journey to a new and improved sense of self. The team at the center fosters a safe environment for learning, vulnerability and healing, while the housing team provides a comfortable place to build community and relax after working hard on yourself all day. Everyone is involved and invested in you and your recovery journey, and the support is incredible. The therapists work hard to encourage growth and healing, and the facilitators promote knowledge and openness. I couldn’t have asked for a more supportive team, mixing knowledge and experience to help me in my recovery journey.

My name is Alan Johnstone and I am a proud member of the avenues alumni family. My company is construction first LLC which is why the review is coming up as that. Beth from concord avenues is second to none!!! Her events has my wife and kids asking for more, not to mention me hanging on the edge of my seat waiting for the next event that Beth hosts to keep me involved. Hands down with no doubt in my mind I would not be clean and sober without my avenues alumni groups, events, and famiily! I am nothing without my alumni family and im so grateful avenues has found such a perfect souls to head our family! Thank you Beth and thank you avenues, I would be lost without you!

I had no idea where on God’s green Earth, Concord, New Hampshire was when I was speaking to Dalin [pronounced/ˈdAAA-lɪn/], on the phone back in October 2025. I am glad I solved this geographical mystery to most Homo sapiens and booked a flight to Boston back on November 3, 2025; the fateful day I landed in Tom Brady country. Much to my dismay, my Denver Broncos lost to New England’s beloved Patriots in this past season’s AFC Championship. I would like it noted (put it in the notes) that I predicted this destined match back in October of 2025 at Avenues Denver. Furthermore, if the gallant, dashing Bo Nix had played in this titanic matchup with forever Belichick’s pedantic Patriots, Denver would have hoisted the Lombardi on Sunday, February 8, 2026, making us 4-time Super Bowl champions. Considering I was in New England, my attorney severely advised me not to leave the sober house before, during, or after the Patriots’ shoddy, scant victory. Anyway, where was I? O yes a review... I am profoundly grateful for my time at Avenues Recovery Center; from the moment I arrived, I was met with a level of care, structure, and professionalism that impressed upon me, almost immediately, that I had entered an environment where meaningful and lasting change was not only possible, but expected. The entirety of the clinical team, extending from therapists to leadership, operates with a remarkable degree of cohesion, intentionality, and genuine care; there is a clarity of purpose that permeates the organization, and it is evident that each individual is committed not merely to helping clients feel better, but to helping them become better. Jeff, Sean, and Shezhad, whom we came to refer to as “The Shadow Council,” facilitated some of the most engaging, demanding, and ultimately transformative group experiences I have ever encountered; their emphasis on shadow work required a level of honesty that was, at times, deeply uncomfortable, yet undeniably necessary. They challenged me daily to reconsider my assumptions, to confront the parts of myself I had long avoided, and to begin the process of integrating both my strengths and my weaknesses; not as contradictions, but as essential elements of a more complete and accountable identity.
