WILLIAM A.

BODHI CASA GRADUATE

“I was miserable and hopeless, with nowhere to turn and without a clue of how to get better. Years of abusing drugs and alcohol had destroyed my life and my relationship with my entire family. I knew I did not have real friends for those whom I hung out with were what we call “opportunistic” friends; friends who hung around just waiting for the next free high. I was one too.In desperation and without much hope, I turned to Bodhi Casa sober living. I was a broken shell; I put my ego aside and took to the house rules. We attended AA & NA meetings everyday and had in house meetings as well. They helped me connect to the sober community, and build a strong sober fellowship and support system around me.

My experience in the recovery field has taught me that creating and maintaining a healthy, balanced sober life, is not something that you can learn in a day. The owner and staff at Bodhi Casa understand the immense challenges at every step in this process. As a result, they have created a highly structured and enriching environment to support clients as they grow and learn how to live life sober. Staff are available 24 hours, 7 days a week assisting and monitoring clients as they face this journey. Great care is taken by Bodhi employees to communicate with doctors, therapists and families on a daily basis.

Bodhi Casa is an amazing program. My best friend went through here and they changed his life. Stefan and Jack are two of the best mentors that a young man could ask for. They keep a clean house and connect their residents with so many opportunities. If you or a loved one need guidance and help, you can absolutely trust them.

SONIA P.

Bodhi casa is a unique and life changing program. Two of my close friends have gone there and they are both still sober and living amazing lives. Working in healthcare I know that many treatment centers make a lot of promises. Bodhi Casa delivers consistently. I continue to see them at community events and helping families. Thank you Bodhi!!!

COOPER O.

Bodhi Casa Graduate

I cannot say enough about how Bodhi Casa has saved and changed my life. The staff went above and beyond and I would not be where I am today without my time at Bodhi Casa. Before Bodhi my life was in shambles, now I can truly look in the mirror and be happy with the person I am today.

After over a year and a half in the program and now having graduated Bodhi Casa, my relationships with loved ones are at an all time high and my health has been restored mentally, physically and spiritually. Professionally I have very exciting job developments in the world of film, because of the tools I have learned and implemented from being at Bodhi Casa.

While at Bodhi the staff and managers helped guide me to get my life back on track. I truly owe Bodhi Casa my life. And I cannot speak more highly of the program.

SAM FLEET

BODHI CASA GRADUATE

Before I came into Bodhi Casa I was struggling in many ways. I was at an all time low in pretty much every aspect of my life. I had a horrible problem with substances, mental health, and lacking a sense of purpose in life. While being in Bodhi wasn't always easy at times I am so thankful for my time spent there and for what Bodhi has done for me and the people around me. Stefan, Jack, and all the other staff/my peers at Bodhi helped me in so many ways with getting back on my feet and in dealing with all the things going on in my life. I learned so much in my time being there not only about my self but in how I can support and uplift the people around me. I seriously cannot say enough good things about Bodhi and I really am so appreciative of my time spent there!

RYAN M.

BODHI CASA GRADUATE

Bodhi helped me to really get on my feet. Stefan worked with my family to help me pay for bodhi when money was really tight and stefan would talk to me when I was struggling. He really cares about the clients and would talk to me when I was having a hard time. Without Bodhi I would not have been able to get my own apartment and hold down a job let alone be sober.

ALEXIS H.

Bodhi Casa is an exceptional sober living with a strong, supportive community for men in recovery. The sense of brotherhood here is unparalleled, with residents holding each other accountable and providing encouragement. Highly recommended for anyone serious about their recovery journey.

JOANNA H.

BODHI CASA GRADUATE

Bodhi Casa is a place that has returned our son to us, and most importantly to himself. No human being asks to have their body and mind hijacked by the toxic and mysterious  illness of substance use disorder. It is a malicious, confounding, heartbreaking condition that terrorizes families and communities. But there is hope and it shines brightly at Bodhi Casa. This is a sober living community where strict boundaries and expectations work hand in hand with solid peer support, group therapy, the 12 step process and experiential trips. The benefits of living these self-care ingredients 24/7 in fellowship with other young men create a solid foundation of health and renewal for the entire family.

SEAN B.

BODHI CASA GRADUATE

 had been kicked out of 5 programs and bodhi was a last stop for me but was only the begining of something I could have never thought was possible, I can say what ever about the program but I owe it my life cause I couldn’t have gotten to where I am today and never thought it was possibly. I gave me the space for that and didn’t give up.

CASEY M.

Stefan and his staff take men who are struggling and help them reach their potential. Getting sober can be such a challenge and alienate you from everything, they bring people out of their shells and back into the communities they belong in.

JACOB G.

BODHI CASA GRADUATE

My time spent at Bodhi Casa was life changing. Prior to Bodhi I was stuck in a rut without any purpose or meaning in my life but the support of Stefan, Jack, the rest of the staff, and all of the other clients helped me completely flip things around. I wouldn’t be in the position I am today without this program.

JOSH C.

THERAPIST

As a mental health professional, I am amazed by the quality of care and dedication to  recovery that both Stefan and his staff at Bodhi Casa offer. Their program promotes a strong sense of community combined with a focus on sobriety that helps young men begin to individuate from their family systems and move into adulthood with the skills they’ll need to be successful at whatever path they may choose. I have personally seen time and time again what Bodhi Casa can do; taking young, addicted, struggling boys and turning them into confident, sober, and competent young men!

CAROLINE P.

Bodhi Casa is always my top choice for aftercare for young men. Stefan and Jack are the best and really take care of their clients. They go above and beyond to help the families as well. I have referred many clients here and would send a family member. The oversight and attention is unparalleled. They really focus on what's next and get the guys into living life. It is very "family" oriented and feels like a home. They can handle a true dual diagnosis client and I have seen many success stories. Bodhi Casa is a true gem!

THOMAS W.

BODHI CASA GRADUATE

The program at Bodhi Casa has allowed me to become an adult and has taught me how to live life on life's terms and stay sober. As a man who struggled for years with substance use addiction and emotional immaturity, the structure and guidance from Bodhi has allowed me to find my path and my own true self through a 12 Step based approach. Being of service, learning how to be accountable and how to connect with people has been what has made Bodhi Casa so special for me. When I was looking at sober living options after I finished the residential program I went to, I wanted a program that had the structure and philosophy that would prepare me for long term sobriety. Bodhi teaches its clients how to deal with family dynamics, sobriety, mental health, interpersonal relationships and life goals. The community aspect of Bodhi, from the staff, current clients and alumni, is what makes Bodhi so special. It really is a team effort on all parts. I am so grateful for what Bodhi has taught me and I can truly say that I am happy with my life and the person I have grown to be at the end of the day every day. I have a new way of living and have learned how to show up for myself and others around me. Thank you Bodhi.
