Farrell Treatment CenterTherapist in New Britain, CT
Great to meet you
Farrell Treatment Center was established in 1973 by Monsignor Joseph Farrell as a shelter for unhoused men experiencing alcohol use disorder. Originally called the "Resurrection House," it was licensed as a halfway house and later renamed in Monsignor Farrell's honor. In 1978, the facility expanded to offer intensive clinical residential treatment for men with substance abuse challenges. Today, Farrell treats approximately 275 clients through its residential program and an additional 750 clients in its outpatient programs annually. In 2019, Farrell merged with Gilead Community Services, which expanded access to mental health resources and community services. The center now operates locations in New Britain and Middletown, Connecticut, offering intensive residential programs, intensive outpatient programs, standard outpatient and group therapies, and medication assisted treatment. Services are available for both men and women, with dedicated aftercare support.
