Empowering Professionals on Their Recovery Path

About The Cedar House Recovery

At The Cedar House, we provide a safe, supportive, and structured sober living environment for professionals committed to maintaining long-term recovery. Designed for individuals typically between the ages of 35 and 65, our program also welcomes college students who are serious about their academic and recovery goals.

We understand that recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all, which is why our approach balances independence with accountability. Residents are encouraged to build healthy, sustainable routines rooted in recovery, work, and wellness. Whether you’re already employed, enrolled in an outpatient program, or transitioning back into daily life, The Cedar House offers the structure and community you need to move forward with confidence.

Life at The Cedar House

Sober living at The Cedar House is not treatment—it’s a lifestyle. Most of our residents participate in therapy, counseling, and either PHP or IOP programs. We support this journey with on-site services including:

• Peer support
• Weekly recovery coaching
• Access to counseling resources

We also offer a rotating weekly schedule of optional groups and activities—designed to foster personal growth, connection, and fun. From shared dinners and 12-step meetings to city outings and local adventures, our residents find meaningful ways to stay engaged in their recovery and in life. Check out an example of our weekly menu here.

We’re Pet Friendly

We know that leaving home is hard—especially when it means leaving a beloved pet behind. That’s why The Cedar House proudly welcomes pets. Having your companion by your side isn’t just comforting; it’s proven to support both mental and physical health during recovery.

Convenient Location + Transportation

Located in Pittsburgh, The Cedar House offers easy access to public transportation and local amenities. Most of our residents have their own vehicles, and off-street parking is included. For those without transportation, we provide rides to appointments and important destinations.

Length of Stay

Every recovery journey is different. Most residents stay with us anywhere from three to twelve months, depending on their personal goals and progress. Our aim is to support each person in building the confidence, stability, and support network needed for lasting success.
