Kisa Life Recovery

Kisa Life Recovery operates as a women-only addiction treatment facility, which means the residential environment, the therapeutic focus, and the peer community are all organized around the specific needs of women in recovery. That intentionality matters — research consistently shows that women often face distinct pathways into substance use, and treatment settings built around those realities tend to support stronger outcomes.

The center's residential treatment model gives women the time and structure to engage fully with recovery rather than fitting sessions around outside obligations. Located in Chautauqua County, Kansas, Kisa Life Recovery serves women who are ready to step into a longer-term recovery process — not a quick detox, but a sustained commitment to rebuilding life without substances.

One of the defining features of Kisa Life Recovery's program is its treatment of Trauma and PTSD alongside substance use. For many women, unaddressed trauma sits at the root of addictive behavior — and recovery programs that treat only the substance use often leave that foundation untouched. Kisa's approach acknowledges the connection between these conditions and works to address both within the residential treatment setting.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the primary therapeutic method used at the center. CBT works by helping clients examine and change the thought patterns and behaviors that sustain substance use, and it has a strong track record in both addiction recovery and trauma treatment. For women working through interconnected challenges, CBT offers a structured framework for meaningful, lasting change.

Kisa Life Recovery's residential program is designed for women across a wide range of life circumstances. The center specifically serves young adults ages 18 to 25, seniors and older adults, pregnant women, and individuals referred through the court system — a breadth of populations that reflects the center's commitment to making residential recovery accessible to women who are often underserved by standard treatment programs.

Payment is accepted through Medicaid, private insurance, TRICARE, state insurance, and self-pay options. The center's administrative office is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Women or family members interested in learning more can call (620) 710-5058 or visit kisaliferecovery.com to start the conversation.

Financial concerns should not be the reason a woman delays entering residential treatment. Kisa Life Recovery accepts several forms of payment to reduce that barrier, including Medicaid, state insurance programs, private insurance, TRICARE for military-connected individuals and families, and self-pay or cash arrangements. This range of accepted payment methods means the program is within reach for women at many different financial starting points.
