At Holdfast Recovery and our brother program, AnchorPoint, we work with men from across the country, including many from California who are done cycling through the same programs, the same 28-day model, the same revolving door.
Our structured addiction treatment programs for men in Arizona welcome men of all faiths who want real recovery, strength, brotherhood, and transformation rooted in Christ.
There’s nothing wrong with California. But for a lot of men, the problem is the same environment, connections, and patterns. For many men, traveling to Arizona for treatment isn’t about running away. It’s about taking recovery seriously enough to protect it by choosing an environment built for focus, structure, and real transformation.
Prescott, Arizona, is a different world. It’s high desert, mountains, ponderosa pines, and wide-open sky. Distance from your environment creates space for honesty. And honesty is where recovery actually starts.
Being removed from daily triggers reduces impulsive decisions, limits access to substances, and creates the space to rebuild healthier routines like sleep, nutrition, discipline, emotional regulation, and accountability.
You can focus on healing without feeling watched, judged, or defined by your past. For many men, that distance fosters greater honesty in therapy, greater willingness to do the hard work, and less fear of what people back home might think.
Not every program is built for the specific needs of men, or for men who want faith-integrated recovery without sacrificing clinical quality. Our Arizona program is designed for men who want real structure, evidence-based care, and a path to deeper transformation.
We provide specialized care for men from all backgrounds in Prescott and across the nation, recognizing that each recovery journey is unique. Our programs are designed to address the challenges faced by men in diverse roles and life circumstances who are seeking treatment, as well as the loved ones helping them take the first step.
We specialize in supporting men battling addiction who are:
Whatever brought you here, our clinical team is equipped to treat it. Holdfast Recovery works with men facing addiction, trauma, mental health challenges, and everything in between.
From residential care to outpatient treatment, every level is guided by experienced leadership that understands addiction, trauma, and what it takes for men to actually change.
Experience private, executive-style rooms and access to an on-site gym + nutritionist in residential care through our brother program, AnchorPoint.
Our PHP provides 6 hours of daily treatment, 5 days a week, balancing clinical structure with real-world integration.
We coordinate a smooth step-down process to a two-phase Intensive Outpatient Program that meets 5 days a week for 3 hours, or 3 days per week for 3 hours.
Our structured, Christ-centered sober living homes offer long-term housing for those in recovery, with 24/7 support and accountability from dedicated staff.
Most California PPO plans cover out-of-state residential treatment, and our team makes it easy to understand exactly what you’re covered for before you commit to anything.
We partner with most major insurance providers and can quickly verify your California-based benefits, walk you through expected costs, and discuss financing options if needed.
Arizona is closer than you think. Prescott is a short flight from LAX, SFO, San Diego, or Sacramento, with straightforward connections into Phoenix Sky Harbor.
Our admissions team provides clear transportation guidance from arrival at the airport through to our front door, and can help coordinate local transportation options to make the transition as smooth as possible.
Leaving California for treatment is a significant step, and the people you leave behind need support, too. Holdfast Recovery provides families and loved ones with clear guidance on what to expect before treatment begins, throughout the program, and after discharge.
We offer family education, open communication, and structured family support to keep everyone aligned.
Our admissions team helps California residents coordinate travel, scheduling, and arrival details so you can stay focused on recovery, not logistics.
Don’t take our word for it, hear from the brothers who lived it. These are real men, real stories, and real lives rebuilt from the ground up.
“Holdfast gave me my life back! With a 90 day program and the will to stop I am 7 months sober yesterday.”
“I’ve known one of the owners for nearly 18 years and can attest to his integrity and passion for recovery. Great place to recover!”
“Real recovery takes place at holdfast. It’s unlikely to find better therapy in the northern Arizona area.”
“Great place to help save lives. The staff actually cares about the clients and they get the clients to learn how to live life in recovery.”
If you’re in California and considering treatment in Arizona, your insurance travels with you. We accept most major commercial insurance plans, including TriWest, GEHA, Cigna, Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, and more.
Out-of-state treatment is covered under most PPO plans, meaning the distance doesn’t have to mean out-of-pocket costs. We understand that financial stress can be a heavy burden, especially for fathers, husbands, and working men already managing the pressures of life in California.
Yes. Most major California PPO insurance plans cover out-of-state residential treatment, and Holdfast Recovery accepts most major commercial insurance, including Cigna, Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, TriWest, and GEHA. We do not accept Medicaid or Medicare. Our admissions team verifies benefits same-day, so California residents know exactly what they’re covered for before making any decisions.
Holdfast Recovery welcomes men of all faiths, though the program is rooted in Christ-centered values and combines biblical truth with evidence-based clinical therapies. Men who are not practicing Christians regularly find value in the spiritual framework, the brotherhood, and the structure of the program. Faith is woven into the culture, not forced as a condition of treatment.
Holdfast Recovery offers a 90-day or longer program that addresses addiction and trauma through a structured, phased approach. This is significantly longer than the standard 28 to 30-day model most programs operate on.
Yes, Holdfast Recovery specializes in dual diagnosis treatment, addressing addiction alongside conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD, and bipolar disorder simultaneously. We integrate polyvagal-informed care, EMDR, IFS, and HeartMath alongside faith-based counseling to address both the neurological and emotional dimensions of co-occurring disorders.
Yes! We accept most major insurance plans and guide you through the verification and approval process so you can focus on your recovery without added stress.
Holdfast Recovery specializes in helping first responders and veterans achieve long-term sobriety, physical wellness, and spiritual healing. Our program was founded by Brendan McDonough, the sole survivor of the Yarnell Hill Fire, who turned to alcohol to cope with survivor’s guilt and PTSD before finding recovery through EMDR and faith. That lived experience shapes how we approach moral injury, occupational trauma, and the specific emotional weight carried by men in service roles.
Men’s addiction treatment in Arizona is rooted in faith, brotherhood, and evidence-based care — welcoming men from California and across the nation.
We accept insurance plans

HoldFast Recovery is “hands down” the best treatment center I have ever been to. Between the staff and brotherhood, there is genuinely something special about this place. If you’re trying to find renewed faith and become the best version of yourself, you’ve come to the right spot. Be prepared to put in the work!

Unlike no other. Holdfast has been a life saving Christian based spirit filled residential treatment center based on the 12 steps. Instead of dreading the classes and meetings I look forward to all of it. The brotherhood of men here is very strong and I’m healing Godspeed.

I highly recommend Holdfast Recovery. My life fell apart faster than a bridge collapse, I lost everything. Through, this program I gained everything. It’s not instantaneous, it’s a lifestyle, much like how living in addiction is a lifestyle.
Things didn’t fall apart overnight (although it may have seemed like it) they won’t come back together overnight.
This was a Godsend in my life, and finding this facility was only through the work of God.
There is something happening at Holdfast that has changed my course, and has allowed me to slowly regain contact with my daughter.
The staff is amazing, and this was the right place for me.
I cannot express the life change I’ve gained enough.
Go here!
