Elba House Womens Residential is a women-only residential rehab in Phoenix, AZ, run by Ebony House, Inc., which was established in 1973. The house sits at 8646 S 14th St and offers round-the-clock support in a home-like setting. Staff build a personalized care plan for each resident rather than running one fixed schedule for everyone. This women-only residential rehab in Phoenix, Arizona, combines evidence-based counseling with life skills and family therapy.
With 6-15 beds, the program stays small, so counselors can give residents steady attention. Care pairs evidence-based therapy with everyday life skills and relapse prevention work, and the team shapes programming around each woman's culture, faith, and identity. In some cases children can live on site with their mothers, and the setting includes childcare and garden space. When a woman has a co-occurring mental health condition, the center accepts her if she is stable on prescribed medication.

That holds whether you ask about this center or compare rehab centers in Arizona. Calling about this Phoenix rehab lets you ask about beds, insurance, and whether your child can stay with you.

Good to know
How long is the residential program at Elba House Womens Residential Phoenix?
Most programs run 30 days, and the house has 6-15 beds. That is brief enough to plan around yet long enough for daily groups, one-on-one counseling, and family sessions. Since the census is small, start dates depend on open beds, so ask about availability early. Clinical staff can adjust how long someone stays after an assessment.
Does Elba House Womens Residential Phoenix accept pregnant women and mothers with children?
Correct. Pregnant women and mothers aged 18 and older are eligible, and a mother can have her child stay with her during treatment as long as the child is younger than 10 years old. Childcare on site appears among the listed amenities. If pregnancy or parenting applies to you, say so on the phone so the center can tell you what it can offer in your case.
Can I use insurance or Medicaid to pay for this Phoenix rehab?
You can pay out of pocket, and some services might be covered by the Substance Abuse Block Grant if you meet eligibility rules. Insurance and AHCCCS coverage are not verified here, so call to confirm with your policy ready. The helpline links callers to licensed providers at no cost and keeps the call private, but the center always decides coverage.
What should I expect during alcohol or benzodiazepine withdrawal?
Alcohol or benzodiazepine withdrawal can be dangerous, and a doctor or nurse should oversee it because seizures and other serious complications are possible. This program is residential, not a standalone detox, so ask how the center handles withdrawal before admission and whether a medical detox referral is needed first. Timing and severity differ from person to person.
What levels of care and therapies does Elba House Womens Residential offer?
Residential rehab for women is its main level of care, with a typical stay of 30 days. Therapies include cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, group and family counseling, psychoeducation, life skills, recreation therapy, and relapse prevention. Aftercare planning adds continuing care and referrals to outpatient treatment. When you call, ask which therapies fit your assessment.
Who is on staff at Elba House Womens Residential in Phoenix?
Evidence-based and gender-specific approaches are listed by the center, but staff credentials or ratios are not published on this page. Since it is a small house with 6-15 beds, you can ask directly who provides counseling and how often clinicians are on site. The helpline can help you check what the center confirms about staffing before you decide.
