Catalyst Behavioral Services

About Catalyst Behavioral Services

Catalyst Behavioral Services is a sober living operator and behavioral health provider based in Oklahoma, running three certified recovery residences in Lawton, in Comanche County. The organization has provided treatment for substance use and mental health conditions in Oklahoma for more than forty years and holds CARF accreditation alongside certification from the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services for its clinical programs.

A Long-Running Oklahoma Behavioral Health Provider

Catalyst runs outpatient therapy, case management, medication-assisted treatment and residential programs in addition to its sober living houses, and the organization states that no one is turned away for lack of finances. That clinical backbone sits alongside, and separate from, the recovery housing itself: OKARR certifies the houses, not the clinical programs, and the two credentials cover different things.

Three Certified Sober Homes in Lawton

Catalyst operates the following recovery residences in Lawton:

• Helen House, for women.
• Miller Manor, for men.
• The Bridge Apartments, coed.

Running a men's house, a women's house and a coed house in the same city lets Catalyst place a wider range of referrals without sending anyone outside Lawton.

What OKARR Certification Adds

The Oklahoma Alliance for Recovery Resources certifies all three houses at Level 2, which commits Catalyst to a published code of ethics for its recovery housing, disclosed fees and house rules before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and complaint review conducted outside each house.

Serving Southwestern Oklahoma

Lawton is the seat of Comanche County and the largest city in southwestern Oklahoma, and Catalyst's presence there gives the region a locally based provider that runs both clinical treatment and certified housing locally, without referring residents out of the area for eithe other.

Applying Through Catalyst Behavioral Services

Referrals and applications go through Catalyst directly. Because the organization already runs treatment programs alongside its housing, a resident coming from Catalyst's own clinical services can move into one of its three Lawton houses without switching providers.
