ABOUT US

About Us explains the comfortable setting of a Montana ranch home, surrounded by the Rocky Mountains, where New Beginning Ranch is uniquely positioned to support you in continuing your journey of sex addiction recovery. Our emphasis on recovery principles, paired with the structure of daily life here, has a proven record of success. The combination of men's groups, time outdoors, 12-step involvement, and an emphasis on connection and relationship works to enhance and revitalize what you've already begun in recovery.

During your stay, you'll find an environment of support and encouragement to continue and integrate the recovery work you began in inpatient treatment or outpatient therapy. This is a transition period — the most difficult phase of the change process. The first few months of dedicated recovery are pivotal in determining long-term success, and we stand ready to help you gain traction in sobriety and learn what it means to thrive in recovery.

Your stay at New Beginning Ranch is a combination of work and play. Alongside the emotional and intellectual work of recovery, our setting offers real opportunity to rediscover old interests or find new ones — work with horses is part of the program itself, and men often pursue fly fishing, hiking, skiing, golf, and more on their own initiative, with the surrounding Bitterroot Valley as a backdrop. A gym membership and yoga classes are included as part of your time here. These pursuits matter — they help fill the void addiction leaves behind, bringing back joy, discipline, and a sense of purpose.

“Here is the reality. The next 90 days will lay the foundation for your whole recovery…to face these issues in a piece by piece manner over an extended period of time has been shown to contribute to relapse…a co-ordinated, intense focus of effort raises the probability of success dramatically.”
— Dr. Patrick Carnes, 90 Day Focus

Many of our residents arrive in the aftermath of being found out in their acting out, while others come from inpatient treatment centers across the country. Some have co-occurring drug and alcohol problems; others have used acting out as their one great escape. Some have lost everything, some still look fine from the outside. Some are married, some are single. Some gay, some straight. But across the board, the men at New Beginning Ranch share a strong determination to pursue sexual integrity. Whoever you are, we hope you'll make yourself at home in our recovery community.
