About ARC Counseling Centers Sanibel House
ARC Counseling Centers Sanibel House is a residential addiction treatment site in Catlettsburg, Kentucky, in Boyd County, just south of Ashland on the Ohio River. The site is part of the Addiction Recovery Care (ARC) Kentucky network, headquartered nearby at the Bellefonte campus in Russell, KY — which means Sanibel House sits unusually close to the network’s clinical and medical infrastructure compared with ARC’s more rural residential houses.
The ARC continuum, as published on the organization’s website, includes medical detox and withdrawal management (delivered at the Bellefonte Psychiatric Hospital & Detox Unit), residential treatment across multiple named houses, intensive outpatient and outpatient services, medication-assisted treatment, and the Crisis to Career vocational pathway. Sanibel House operates in the residential segment of that continuum, with clients typically routed through Bellefonte for detox when needed and stepping down to ARC’s outpatient sites after primary treatment.
ARC describes its clinical programs as CARF-accredited and grounded in evidence-based practices, with a spiritual emphasis that includes 12-step work and chaplaincy. The organization is openly faith-based and peer-led: about half of ARC’s employees are themselves in recovery and a third have completed ARC’s program.
There is an address discrepancy between data sources: the directory record holds 409 Ann Street in Catlettsburg, while Google Maps lists Sanibel House at 2206 Walnut Street. The published Google Maps phone is 606-653-1312. Confirm the current operating address with intake before arrival, especially because ARC operates multiple buildings in the Catlettsburg / Russell / Ashland corridor.
