Starting PHP in New Milford
Partial hospitalization (PHP) at our Connecticut campus — opened in 2025 at 143 West St, Suite V, New Milford, CT 06776 — brings daily structure to clients across New Milford, Danbury, Litchfield County, and Western Connecticut. In-person programming runs Monday–Saturday, 9 AM–3 PM; clients elsewhere in Connecticut can attend virtually. Reach admissions any hour at (860) 507-9258.
The first week of PHP at the New Milford campus
A recovery manager is in place before the first day, and the week opens with an ASAM-based assessment confirming PHP is the right level of care. From there, the schedule fills with individual therapy, group sessions, and a medication evaluation with our board-certified PMHNP — psychiatric and medical needs get identified in week one, not discovered later. Clients help set their own treatment goals from the start.
The first week is about being greeted by a community, both staff and peers, who are already invested in your recovery, and having any urgent needs met right away so nothing gets in the way of starting treatment. From there, a new client begins meeting with their full care team so we can understand what kind of support they'll actually need in the coming weeks. The client isn't a passive part of this process — they're articulating their own goals, because the plan we build only works if they helped build it.

“I was referred to Lantana for aftercare and I'm so grateful I did it! The staff is so amazing and supportive. They listened to client feedback and made program enhancements. Ralph, Yana, Bill & Christian are so down to earth and easy to talk to! I will stay connected and look forward to alumni events!”
“I have a strong connection to Lantana Recovery in New Milford, CT. I have been able to stay sober for many years through this connection. The culture here supports a strong 12-step fellowship presence through sponsorship and step work for those who desire it. The staff here is amazing — supportive and helpful. They can even help with getting clients connected to the local recovery community. The location is perfect too, tucked into a quintessential New England downtown.”
“My husband had been in and out of different facilities for a six-month period. Once he was moved to Lantana there was significant improvement almost immediately, and my husband was able to move through the program and succeed. Thank you to the team at Lantana for understanding his issues and working toward a recovery and a plan for him to move forward.”
“This program and staff saved my son's life. They are kind and compassionate and treated us with respect. Addiction is a powerful disease and cannot be battled alone — it takes an army, and Lantana has built a great force to help families with that battle. We could not be more grateful for Mark, Mike, Christian and the entire team.”
“Lantana has consistently helped clients of mine that have gone through their programs. The clinical staff is top notch and their support staff are equally impressive at providing excellent care to clients. After 15 years of working in the treatment field I am still very confident when I refer families to Lantana for help with their loved ones.”
“The program at Lantana is wonderful. I went to Lantana directly after leaving a 30-day inpatient program and this was the best decision. The program helped me learn many coping skills for my recovery. The entire staff is amazing — they even helped with aftercare once I completed the program. I can't say enough about how wonderful this experience was.”
“Lantana Recovery is amazing! I can't say enough great things about this treatment center. They genuinely care and have a team that truly puts recovery first. The staff is compassionate and knowledgeable, creating a safe and supportive environment for healing. They don't just treat the addiction — they care for the whole person, offering tools and guidance that really make a difference. I highly recommend this center to anyone seeking real, lasting recovery!”
