  This is a safe sanctuary where I did not want to go. I went in and felt cautious, but was welcomed with open arms. I was treated with respect even when I felt I did not deserve it. My counselor Lora believed in me and saved me when I was at the lowest point of my life. She showed me a sort of compassion and understanding that I never knew possible and believed in me when no one else did. It saved my life and pushed me to be a better man. I will be grateful for all eternity.

  Do not recommend. They do not take recovery seriously. Not helpful at all.They are especially not helpful to spouses or families to work with their loved one. Their idea of IOP is a joke. Waste of time. Look elsewhere.

  If they had a 0 star rating I would give it to them. Do not send your loved ones to this place, the counselors are in it only for the money, they do not care about there clients AT ALL, and the two woman counselors both with the name "Christine" never return calls--so if your loved one is having a burning desire to use, and calls either counselor up, it's a pretty much guarantee neither one will be available, and a 100% guarantee they won't return your phone calls. If you truly care about your loved ones (and/or) your own sobriety do not go to this place.
