Ames House Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Ames House is a sober living home in Lakewood, Colorado, in Jefferson County, on South Ames Circle, run by Sophrosyne Sober Living.

A Sober Home on South Ames Circle

Ames House holds ten residents across five bedrooms, a ratio that runs closer to two people per room than the smaller layouts Sophrosyne Sober Living uses at some of its other Lakewood houses. The larger bedrooms keep the weekly cost down for residents still rebuilding an income.

One of Four Sophrosyne Sober Homes in Lakewood

Ames House is one of four residences Sophrosyne Sober Living operates in Lakewood, alongside Balsam House, Dudley House and Arkansas House. Keeping the portfolio in one city means a resident who needs a different house, whether for space, cost or simply a change, is dealing with an organization that already has their history.

An All Pathways Recovery Residence

Sophrosyne Sober Living does not require residents at Ames House to follow a single recovery method. The organization's stated goal is to be the benchmark for an all pathways residence, supporting whatever mix of outpatient treatment, therapy or medication actually works for the person living there, including medication for opioid use disorder.

Certified Recovery Housing in Colorado

Sophrosyne Sober Living is certified through Ohio Recovery Housing - Colorado. Certification commits the organization to a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and rules before move-in, and an outside complaint process.

Lakewood's Place in Jefferson County

Lakewood is Jefferson County's largest city, on the western side of the Denver metro area, with Golden serving as the county seat. That location gives Ames House residents access to Lakewood's own services along with the wider Denver job market and transit network.
