I attended outpatient services at The Recovery Center after attending Serenity Grove for 30 days. The staff at The Recovery Center are very knowledgeable and caring. They offer continuing care as well which has been a great program. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking to get sober. I have been sober for a little over a year now and they helped get me here.

After I completed a 30-day inpatient program with their sister company, Serenity Grove, I decided to do two months of outpatient treatment. It was so nice to be able to transition from inpatient to outpatient with the same counselors and clients. It made me feel safe and more relaxed in a familiar setting. I added to the tools that I had learned at Serenity Grove and continued to work on my sobriety without going straight back to the "real world". I cannot thank AARC enough for their care. I still go once a week to their Continuing Care program, and I can do that for as long as I will ever need!

I recently did an intensive outpatient program here and it was positive and habit changing. I’m using skills I learned there in every day to regulate my emotions. I’m in a much happier place! I recommend if you want somewhere safe to go to work on your healing process.

Was at SummitRidge for almost two months in their partial hospitalization program after experiencing psychosis and general dysregulation. I could not recommend the program more highly. The staff, especially Beth and Taylor, were kind and competent and did everything they could to ensure a safe and supportive environment. Would highly recommend this program to anyone who is struggling with their mental health and is open to learning skills to ameliorate it.

They were the 3rd biggest step in my road to recovery. The entire staff that I've had the pleasure of meeting are very kind.
I've been coming here over 2 years now, with their help. They have helped me in many more ways than prescribing methadone. They have several counselors for you to speak to and go hand in hand with recovery. They also have certified peers to speak with about anything you may not feel comfortable telling your counselor yet. For the first time in 2 decades, I can truthfully say I am happy to be alive.
If you're considering getting sober, don't put it off another day. You're not alone. there are many here who want to help you with your journey to a sober life.

Wish it was made mandatory to go down a certain mg every two weeks until your completely finished and off. Present a treatment plan on day 1 with a completion date and contract. So the patients know what and when to expect to be completed by. Exempt for the few people truly getting it for pain treatment. It's sad people spend years going to treatment places and not even progress any. Enforce it. Make them get off of it because they aren't strong enough or willing to do it themselves. It may not work for everyone but it would on most of them making it worth it. At some point people need to decide when to grow up and put it in the past.

Medicine Wheel Clinic is great across all fronts. Not only is the entire staff extremely kind but as a fun fact, it's a multi-generational small business owned by women. The care provided at Medicine Wheel is always in the best interest of the individuals served and it's great to know that the overall goal is to afford treatment to as many people who suffer from substance use disorders the care that's deserved. I feel privileged to know the individuals at The Medicine Wheel Clinic and encourage those looking for help to call or go by the clinic. They are non-judgmental people who understand the complexity of this disease.
