If you're looking for sober living in Dayton, you're not just looking for a bed. You're looking for a place that will hold you accountable, believe in you, and help you build a life worth staying sober for.
Tina Marie's Recovery Housing is a structured sober living community in Dayton, Ohio for men, women, and couples in recovery from substance use disorder. We're registered with the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (OhioMHAS) and we pair safe, stable housing with real clinical support — so recovery has both a roof and a roadmap.
We were built on a simple belief: people recover when they have the right environment, the right structure, and someone who refuses to give up on them. That's what we do every day.
What structured sober living looks like here
Sober living only works when there's structure behind it. Every resident moves through a clear program designed to rebuild stability, responsibility, and independence.
7–14 Day Observation Period
Every new resident starts with a supervised stabilization window to settle safely into recovery before stepping into the full program.
Life Skills Training
Budgeting, communication, conflict resolution, and the daily-living skills that make independent living stick after you leave.
Job Readiness
Resume help, interview prep, and connections to employers across the Dayton area — because lasting recovery needs economic stability.
Accountability & Drug Testing
House meetings, structured schedules, peer accountability, and random and scheduled drug testing keep everyone honest and on track.
Transportation
Rides to AA/NA meetings and clinical appointments, so getting to recovery is never the reason someone misses it.
Clinical Support
IOP, PHP, counseling, and mental-health care through our clinical partner, Visualize Wellness Living Therapeutic Services.
The full structured program typically runs 9 to 12 months. Research consistently shows that time in supportive recovery housing is the strongest predictor of long-term sobriety — so we don't rush anyone out the door.
Who we serve in Dayton
Tina Marie's serves men, women, and couples on several recovery pathways. Couples housing is based on fit and current availability, and every resident completes individual intake so the placement supports recovery:
- Women's recovery housing in Dayton — a safe, separate community for women in early recovery.
- Men's sober living in Dayton — brotherhood, accountability, and a path back to work.
- Couples sober living in Dayton — structured recovery housing for couples when both partners are ready and placement is the right fit.
- Veterans sober living near the Dayton VA — recovery housing built for those who served.
- Step-down housing for people leaving inpatient, PHP, or IOP treatment, coordinated with discharge planners across the Miami Valley.
How residents pay for sober living
Almost nobody pays full price out of pocket. We accept Medicaid (CareSource, Buckeye, Molina, and UnitedHealthcare Ohio plans), and we help residents combine Medicaid-billed clinical services with vouchers, sliding-scale support, and grant-funded placement. For a full breakdown, read our guide to sober living costs in Dayton and our explainer on whether Medicaid pays for sober living in Ohio. The first call is always free and confidential.
Where we are
Tina Marie's Recovery Housing is located in Dayton, Ohio (45416), serving Montgomery County and the greater Dayton metro — from West Dayton to Trotwood, Englewood, Riverside, and Kettering. We're just minutes from the Dayton VA Medical Center and coordinate with hospitals, treatment centers, and case managers across the region.
We also operate additional recovery homes across the Dayton area, including the spacious Bear Creek home in Miamisburg, just south of the city — the same program and standards in a different setting.
Sober living vs. a halfway house
A lot of people search for a "halfway house in Dayton" when what they actually need is voluntary sober living. The difference matters: a halfway house is usually time-limited and often tied to a defined outside program, while sober living is recovery housing you choose and can stay in as long as you need. We break it down fully in sober living vs. halfway house — but the short version is that Tina Marie's is a voluntary recovery residence built for people who want to do the work.
Operating to the standards that matter
We're OhioMHAS-registered, actively pursuing Ohio Recovery Housing (ORH) certification (expected August 2026), and every resident's records are protected under 42 CFR Part 2 — the strictest federal medical-privacy standard, stricter than HIPAA. Your story stays your story.
