Earth House

Earth House, located at 521 Canal Road in Somerset, New Jersey, offers a compassionate and innovative mental healthcare program designed to support individuals living with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression. Unlike traditional hospital settings, Earth House focuses on wellness and holistic health by integrating psychiatric care with life skills training, nutrition, exercise, and educational courses. Patients, referred to as students, engage in a structured environment that fosters self-sufficiency and empowers them to manage their medication and nutrient regimens effectively.

The program’s comprehensive approach includes therapeutic activities such as art, drama, Tai Chi, and yoga to promote mental and physical well-being. Family involvement is a key component, with regular workshops and orientation sessions designed to help families support their loved ones through recovery and transitional phases. Graduates of Earth House typically achieve greater independence, including part-time employment and daily living management, marking significant progress in their journey toward a balanced and fulfilling life.
