About Recovery Unplugged at Harrison House
You’ll find Recovery Unplugged at Harrison House in Annandale, Virginia, about 15 miles southwest of Washington, D.C. They partner with Harrison House, a historic drug and alcohol treatment facility that has served the D.C. metro area for over 20 years. Their programs emphasize music based approaches to reach recovery from addiction.
You can access various adult outpatient programs, including partial hospitalization, intensive, standard and aftercare. While they don’t offer detox onsite, they coordinate with medical facilities nearby to provide withdrawal management services.
Unique Recovery Approach
What stands out most to me is their approach. They strive to help you find meaningful change with a blend of proven interventions and music based therapies.
You can participate in live performances, open mics and music therapy sessions focused on composition, music appreciation, therapeutic journaling and lyric writing. These approaches can help you get to the root of addiction and explore its underlying causes.
Medication Assisted Treatment
Another great feature I noticed was that they offer medication assisted treatment. They prescribe FDA approved Vivitrol to help you manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings that can hinder recovery. You’ll also participate in behavioral and music based sessions to recognize and change the behaviors contributing to addiction.
Client Experiences
While one former client was concerned with a lack of communication, most former clients expressed satisfaction with their services. Clients enjoyed their small group sizes, compassionate staff and unique treatment approach.
While the experiences of others can hold some weight, always prioritize your needs and recovery goals. Be sure to research and consider multiple facilities to find the best fit for you.

In outpatient therapy, you’ll attend therapy sessions several times each week while living at home. This is ideal if you have a strong support system and a lower risk of relapse. Outpatient treatment offers flexibility to maintain work, school or family obligations.
