About Magdalene House of Charleston

Magdalene House of Charleston is a recovery home for women facing substance use challenges in Summerville, South Carolina. Set along West Richardson Avenue in Summerville, the facility sits within walking distance of the Historic District, Azalea Park and the Summerville Museum and Research Center. The facility fosters a safe, structured and compassionate community where residents learn accountability, self-responsibility and vital life skills to support independent living in the real world.
Central to the program is communal love that creates a sense of belonging and restores dignity. Residents benefit from 24/7 guidance and support from compassionate staff as they learn to live honest, sober and self-sufficient lives. The duration of stay is one year but may vary depending on each woman’s progress.

Three-Phased Treatment Approach

Magdalene House offers residents an opportunity for a fresh start through a three-phased approach that mirrors the 12-step procedure. I like that it focuses on instilling discipline and balanced recovery. The initial phase encompasses assessments and personalized care planning tailored to the unique needs of each woman.
Referral support may be provided for high-intensity inpatient or structured yet flexible outpatient care when better suited to your individual needs. While onsite, you’ll attend daily group therapy alongside individual sessions to build resilience, address underlying issues and strengthen coping skills for relapse prevention.

Preparation For Life After Treatment

You’ll participate in life skills classes to gain self-understanding, personal and spiritual growth and stability. Tailored vocational training may equip you with practical job skills such as resume building, interview preparation and basic workplace etiquette to help you succeed professionally and personally. This prepares you for a stable and productive reentry into the workforce with the confidence and skills needed to sustain long-term independence.
I like that you’ll also gain practical education in areas like financial planning and computer literacy, which are essentials for navigating daily life and building long-term stability. Daily peer interactions will help you rebuild trust, foster accountability and lay the foundation for healthy and lasting relationships.

A young adult program in South Carolina focuses only on young adults and their developmental needs as they face addiction issues. Treatment addresses the unique challenges of this stage of life and helps young adults work through recovery.

The goal of both is to address addiction issues and help participants achieve long-term sobriety.

Levels of Care

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

Treating a substance abuse disorder without treating a co-occurring mental health disorder is not effective. If you have co-occurring disorders, you need dual diagnosis treatment in South Carolina to properly address all your recovery needs.

Sober Living

South Carolina sober living provides a safe and supportive living environment to help you maintain a sober lifestyle. These homes often serve as a transition between rehab treatment and independent living. A typical stay lasts between five and eight months, but can be for as long as you need it.

Inpatient Rehab

Inpatient drug rehab in South Carolina can last anywhere from a few weeks to more than 90 days, depending on the program. During that time, you will live at the rehab facility and receive treatment such as counseling, medication, and forms of holistic therapy.

Outpatient Rehab

South Carolina outpatient rehab often helps people transition back to their lives from inpatient rehab. This less restrictive program involves attending regular counseling sessions and support group meetings. The length of outpatient rehab varies from short-term to long-term, based on each person’s recovery journey.
