  Clementine Twin Lakes truly saved my life in so many ways. It was my second residential treatment center, after first being at a Clementine location in South Miami, and I can confidently say it is an extraordinary place to recover. My therapist was kind, supportive, and always willing to listen to whatever was on my mind. The family therapy sessions—though challenging—were incredibly effective, helping me navigate recovery with my parents’ support. The dietitian was especially amazing and guided me through some of the darkest times of my life with invaluable advice. The entire staff—from the clinical director and assistant clinical director to the RCs, nurses, and even the chef—were always there for me. Their compassion, dedication, and encouragement made me feel safe and cared for every step of the way. I miss them all dearly. When I first arrived at Clementine, I was completely blinded to how sick I really was. All I wanted to do was restrict and exercise. But Clementine Twin Lakes helped me rebuild my life and become a stronger, healthier version of myself. Since leaving, I’ve remained in strong recovery, and I know I owe so much of that to the incredible care I received there. I would 100% recommend Clementine Twin Lakes to anyone struggling with an eating disorder. It is a place filled with hope, healing, and people who truly care.

  I was at Clementine about a year ago. I have been in a pretty stable recovery since I was discharged but, the food was always cold (sometimes undercooked) , an RC wore a waist trainer to work multiple times a week, another RC talked about being gym trainer helping people to lose weight, and we were yelled at consistently by staff. One staff member slammed a door in a clients face. We only met with our therapists once a week and the yoga/dance teacher is useless. One of the group therapists (who has now been fired) told me that I was a liar for saying that I thought I was further along in recovery in front of everyone. We were only allowed outside twice a week. The ensures we’re always warm and the measurements were inconsistent. I wouldn’t have been able to gain weight if it weren’t for Clementine, but the rest was pretty disappointing. I made some lifelong friends that I am thankful for, and I also am grateful for the staff that treated me like an actual person, not just someone with an ED.

  We had to save our daughter out of there after a week or so being there. The approach to her needs were terrible. Everyone is treated the same way, no individualized approach. No one was answering the emails. I sent several emails to the program manager and the nutritionist, never heard back from them. One incident after another got us so worried that we had to rescue her. The system was such that we felt we would be better off at home than in that program. Worse came after we got her out and found out that they had reported us to the child protective services!! and we had to deal with that too. This really proved to us that we made the right decision to get her out of there. I am a physician myself and had spoken with the psychiatrist there a couple of times. Was very surprised that the reported us to CPS, when we voluntarily took my daughter there to get help! Nevertheless, with all fairness, I believe if your child is dying from malnutrition and anorexia, it may be ok to take them there, so they can force feed them. But for the other conditions and eating disorders I certainly doubt about the place.

  Honestly this place was awful and all of the “counselors” were incredibly rude and invalidated feelings on the daily. I had my “daily therapy” sessions (individual) once a week, if that and it made me develop and different disorder when i left. don’t go here.

  Clementine really helped me to become the person I want and need to be and changed my life around- it started to mend my relationship with food. I got a lot out of the nutrition training program and the mindful movement training. 100% would recommend
