The GateHouse Restoring the human spirit through recovery. This page is for alumni, family and friends of The GateHouse. The length of stay varies.

All of The Gate House programs provide the client with quality, reality-oriented professional counseling services and basic life skills training so that they may fully develop. The treatment is based on the philosophy of Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous, and principles of a holistic approach to recovery. Our staff and extended resources include competent and knowledgeable, certified, and degreed professionals who specialize in substance abuse, codependency, and mental health problems. The residential programs, known as The Gate House for Men and The Gate House for Women, provide structured living and on-going treatment for adult men and women recovering from chemical dependency. Many people find that after they have completed an inpatient detox or rehabilitation program, they need continued support. The Gate House programs provide a safe place for people who need a little more time in a drug-free environment away from old people, places, and temptations where they can continue to stabilize before moving forward. Both programs are Pennsylvania State licensed and are recognized by the Pennsylvania Client Placement Criteria at level 2B. The transitional housing/recovery house program provides a safe supportive living environment conducive to emotional and spiritual needs of an individual new to recovery. Outpatient treatment consists of individualized treatment planning which includes the client in deciding the course of their treatment. Outpatient services also include assessments and referrals to community-based resources, relapse prevention planning, and the practicing of recovery skills without disrupting daily routines and is offered for men and women at both our Mountville, PA and Lititz, PA location.

🧡 Yannick Harris once came to The GateHouse seeking structure and accountability in recovery. He later returned as a counselor, helping others navigate a journey he knows firsthand.

That same spirit of giving back helped shape The GateHouse's beginnings through Jere Stabley and continues today through team members like Meagan Halbleib, whose lived experience informs her work as a recovery specialist.

Their stories show how mentorship, encouragement, and community can help the support one person receives reach many others.

As we look ahead to this year's ExtraGive, we're recognizing the people who connect us and make long-term recovery possible.

Recovery is personal, but support can make the path stronger.

Counselors, peers, case managers, recovery specialists, and family can provide guidance, accountability, and connection in recovery.

A strong network can help create stability today while supporting the life someone is working to build for the future.

The GateHouse was represented at Qualifacts 2026!

This week, our own Lindsey Gageby attended the Qualifacts Annual Customer Conference in Orlando, connecting with behavioral health professionals from across the country to share insights, explore new ideas, and help shape technology that better supports organizations like ours.

Through her involvement in Qualifacts focus groups and its Champion program, Lindsey has helped advocate for the unique needs of smaller behavioral health and substance use treatment providers, including improvements to medication management workflows for Residential Extended Care programs.

We’re proud to have had Lindsey representing The GateHouse, lending her expertise to these important conversations and bringing valuable knowledge back to our team and the people we serve. 🧡

September is Su***de Prevention Month, an opportunity to make space for honest conversations about mental health and remind others that reaching out matters.

As we also mark 25 years since the events of September 11, we recognize a day that continues to carry profound grief and difficult memories for many. Taking the time to check in with ourselves and the people around us can be especially meaningful.

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline for free, confidential support, available 24/7.

Sometimes, support simply begins by starting a conversation. Your story is needed, and help is available.
