Brick House Recovery was established in 2014 when our founder noticed an aching need in the Treasure Valley community: high-quality, private, faith-based addiction recovery. Since that time, our goal has been to provide exceptional and effective treatment for adults struggling with substance abuse and co-occurring disorders.

Addiction impacts every area of life, and change rarely happens all at once. People move through stages, sometimes with deep ambivalence. Instead of trying to control that, focus on influence. Set healthy boundaries. Work on the life domains where you feel off balance. As you gain emotional sobriety, you become a steady presence that often encourages your loved one to move toward their own recovery.

In this Get Unhooked episode, learn how influence, not control, creates the environment where real change can take root.

Relapse does not mean failure. For many people, it becomes the moment that resolves the back-and-forth struggle about whether they really want to change. Jason compares it to falling off a diet or workout plan and then feeling the consequences so clearly that you finally adjust your guardrails. That discomfort can become the push that moves someone forward.

In this Get Unhooked episode, hear how "Grace’s" relapse became a turning point and why understanding ambivalence can help families stay grounded.

If you love someone in addiction, take a moment to ask a hard but important question: What does the addiction solve for them? Substances often meet a need long before they create chaos. They may quiet anxiety, numb old wounds, or soften the weight of mental health struggles. When you understand both the benefits and the costs, you begin to see the full picture of what they are fighting.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Jason walks families through reflective questions that build empathy, clarity, and healthier support.

Sobriety does not always mean emotional wellness. Clean time does not automatically bring peace. Jason shares how, even the day he graduated drug court, the addict voice tried to convince him that alcohol was not a problem. This is a powerful reminder that people can be in very different stages of change with different substances.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, learn how understanding these mixed stages can help you step off the emotional rollercoaster and support your loved one with clarity and patience.

The thing Jason once tried hardest to hide is now the very thing that helps him connect, serve, and lead. What we numb or run from often carries the deepest potential for purpose. Recovery grows when we stop hiding and start telling the truth about where we are.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Jason invites you to reflect on the parts of yourself you have been avoiding and how those places might hold unexpected strength.

Recovery begins with willingness, but it is purpose that keeps it going. Jason reflects on how relapse often feels like starting over, but it is really a recycling through the stages of change. People move from preparation back to contemplation, sometimes back to pre-contemplation, then forward again. This back-and-forth is confusing and exhausting, especially for families who hear one thing in the morning and the opposite that night.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, learn how to understand this cycle and find steadiness when recovery feels unpredictable.

The first drink can feel like confidence, connection, and calm. For Jason, it lifted depression, eased anxiety, and briefly erased the fear of not being accepted. It felt like a solution long before it became a problem. The pattern formed quietly because he was drinking to change how he felt, not to party.

In this Get Unhooked episode, hear how understanding these early emotional drivers can deepen compassion for anyone struggling with addiction.

When you are close to someone who is struggling, you have more influence than you realize. That influence is not about rescuing or fixing. It is about withholding the comfort that enables the problem while still offering steady love. This is some of the hardest work a family member can do.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Jason explains how to recognize your own stage of change around rescuing and why this awareness can shift everything in the recovery process.

Boundaries are hard when emotions run high. Jason describes feeling manipulated, resentful, and worried about how people might respond. That fear made him either avoid the issue or confront it too forcefully. Underneath both was the same struggle: learning to stay grounded. With guidance from someone who understood the pressure, he learned how to put on the emotional raincoat and lead with clarity instead of fear.

In this Get Unhooked episode, hear how support and honesty helped Jason hold firm to what mattered most.

When we give in to manipulation, even with good intentions, the midbrain wins. The person in addiction avoids discomfort, and the motivation to change never has a chance to grow. Natural consequences are painful, but they are also the spark that creates real internal desire for a different life.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, learn why protecting someone from consequences can actually keep them stuck and how healthy boundaries support true recovery.

One text message changed everything. Jason learned he was about to become a father, and the news hit him with a wave of denial, fear, shame, and the urge to run. In the middle of addiction and drug court, he felt completely unprepared and overwhelmed. He pulled back during the pregnancy, trying to survive his own chaos while the realities of relapse, jail, and responsibility collided.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Jason shares this deeply human moment and how it shaped his journey toward honesty, healing, and eventual transformation.
