New York Center for Living Addiction Treatment
At the New York Center for Living, we recognize that recovery goes beyond merely stopping substance use; it involves rebuilding a meaningful and connected life. Established in 2008 as a nonprofit organization, our center was inspired by a family’s personal experience. After a teenage family member completed rehab, they found it challenging to access quality aftercare and community support in New York City. This prompted the creation of NYCFL to address that need, providing comprehensive, compassionate, and specialized addiction treatment in Manhattan for adolescents, young adults, and adults.
Our programs are tailored to meet clients where they are in their recovery journey, offering flexible, evidence-based treatment that incorporates clinical therapy, family involvement, peer support, and community connections. Whether you or your loved one is just starting recovery or seeking ongoing care after treatment, NYCFL provides the structure, understanding, and tools necessary for lasting recovery from addiction in Manhattan.
A Nonprofit Treatment Center Focused on Connection and Healing
NYCFL is a nonprofit organization with a clear mission: to make high-quality, evidence-based addiction treatment accessible to families and individuals in Manhattan and the greater New York area. We specialize in treating substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions, understanding that issues such as anxiety, depression, or trauma often drive addictive behaviors.
Our approach focuses on healing through connection, education, and support. Clients participate in a combination of clinical therapy, wellness activities, and peer recovery experiences, all designed to restore balance and build resilience. We aim to help each individual rediscover their strengths, reconnect with their families, and establish a solid foundation for long-term recovery.
The Heart of Recovery in Midtown
At NYCFL, we believe that family involvement is essential for recovery. Addiction impacts everyone in the household, so healing must include rebuilding trust, communication, and understanding. That’s why we offer dedicated support programs for parents, partners, and families. Through education and therapy, we help families learn how to support their loved one’s recovery while also taking care of themselves.
Our peer recovery support and alumni program ensure that clients stay connected long after formal treatment ends. Recovery is a lifelong journey that is sustained by community. NYCFL hosts community dinners, alumni events, and ongoing peer-led groups that foster a sense of belonging and purpose.
More than a place of repair, the New York Center for Living is a place of belonging.
