In April 2009, Ketcham checked into the Pasadena Recovery Center for sex addiction, as depicted in "Sex Rehab with Dr. Drew", a VH1 spinoff of "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew" (celebrity co-stars included Amber Smith, Nicole Narain, Kari Ann Peniche and Duncan Roy). Ketcham has said that she originally intended to disrupt the process in order to gain publicity and increase marketability as a porn star, but that after the first five days of treatment, she began to have a change of heart. She came to accept that she suffered from a problem which she needed to resolve, took the process seriously and became a model participant. With the help of Dr. Drew and Jill Vermeire, she graduated from the program. Afterward, she entered a sober living facility, as depicted in the second season of "Sober House", which premiered in March 2010. The last adult film that Ketcham performed in, titled "Celebrity Pornhab with Dr. Screw" (a parody of the "Celebrity Rehab" series that had recently featured porn star Mary Carey), was shot just before her participation in "Sex Rehab with Dr. Drew". Ketcham discussed her path into pornography and her recovery from addiction with Pinsky and others in a March 17, 2010, appearance on "The View". She explained that she had taken a year-long vow of abstinence when she completed treatment. Nine months into this period of abstinence, a friendship with a man who supported her recovery and attended "12-step" meetings with her became a committed, monogamous relationship. Ketcham is an avid painter and sees it as a healthy outer circle activity, as well as a new source of income. When she was enrolling in college, she forfeited all porn-related sources of income to make a clean break. In April 2009, Ketcham started a blog titled "Becoming Jennie", after participating in VH1's "Sex Rehab with Dr. Drew". In her first entry, dated April 29, 2009, she wrote, "My name is Jennie Ketcham, and I am a recovering pornstar, and addict. This day, as every day, is the first day of the rest of my life, and I intend to live it to the fullest." According to the blog, she does not regret having been in pornography, was living a sober lifestyle, and is working on a memoir. In December 2009, Ketcham began contributing to the "Huffington Post", on the inauguration of their Los Angeles edition.
