Personal Letter written by a parent
Letter from a client:
I could not be happier with my personal outcomes. The treatment program was better than I expected and more than I hoped for. I had unfortunately become a connoisseur of depression treatment approaches from past experiences and this is by far the best I've seen or heard about during my 13+ years of treatment across multiple states. I wish I had discovered this place earlier. My overall feeling upon leaving is gratitude-it was quite literally, a Place of Hope for me.
Testimonial From Patient:
My heart is filled with gratitude for the blessings I have received through The Center. I have my life back and am honored to share my story. I hope that each of you understand the magnitude of the work you do within those walls. I know many of the individuals you serve may never feel the hope you have to offer. However, I want you to know that there are those that are ready and willing and for that process to take place all of you are needed. When you get discouraged with the work you are doing stop and remember this is not our plan, this plan and agenda goes much higher and beyond a veil we cannot see. The work you are doing is simply acting as the hands and mouth pieces for a power greater than you… The only thing you are asked to do is speak the words of truth and allow God to do the rest. I believe many are called to the work each of you do, but only a few are chosen. God has chosen you, Clinicians at the Center, to save his children. You do a much greater work than sit and process clients, you heal the wounded spirit and you put Gods children back on their feet.

Is there any other feedback you would like to give? |
Every single person at The Center was extremely friendly and approachable. It made the process easier. also, the housing was very nice. I also like the non-clinical (hospital) feeling throughout the housing and The Center and the freedom they give you is just right. Not too much, but at least some. |

To get the help I needed and tools to use to deal with my addictions. To reestablish my relationship with my Lord. I knew this was the first key to een having a chance to deal with the other issues. |

Very good. My team saw needs in me that I did not even realize were contributing the the totally broken state I was in when I came. |

Awesome. So helpful with understanding the harm that some of my meds had been causing. They assisted with getting off those meds and educatated me in many areas to help with my future. |

Grief and Loss |
What were your primary goals in coming? |
To stop having anxiety attacks, anger management, and to find a level of peace. |
What was your experience with your treatment team? |
I had a great experience with my treatment team. I was skeptical of having different people for my individual sessions but it worked really well. I didn't always like what I heard or had to do but in the end it helped me a great deal. Thank you! |
What was your experience with your medical team? |
I worked with Dr. B. He took the time with me to answer my questions (which I had a lot). I'm used to having 10 minutes with my doctor so this was nice. It's hard when you have anxiety to determine where the anxiety ends and medical issues begin. Dr. B. found an issue with my thyroid and that's now being treated. I was able to get off medication that was making my anxiety worse. I am happy I got to work with Dr. B. |
Was there a team member you found particularly helpful? |
Gigi is amazing! I love all of my team but she sticks out for me. She really helped me see my need for balance. She helped me see I am more than my job. She helped me think of alternatives so I will have time for self care. I now see I have value and when I came here I thought it was only my work and money. |
Were there aspects of the program (fitness, art therapy, certain classes, such as cooking classes) that you found particularly beneficial? |
I liked stretching with Peggy, art therapy, and relaxation with Dr. B. These are tools I can use to help me relax and I really need that. |
