Mt Sinai has the most genuine staff I’ve ever met! They helped me in getting connected after leaving Mt. Sinai as well as being admitted to Mt. Sinai. They have continued to help me and my family as a whole by getting my sister to Mt. Sinai as well. We are so thankful for Lake and Mount Sinai for helping our family!

Mt Sinai was very helpful for my family and our loved one from start to finish. The entire staff was very warm and welcoming. We have been dealing with this for almost 10 years and Mt Sinai actually addressed his underlying issues for the first time ever. His therapist and Dr were very invested with us and I highly recommend anyone that reaches out to me to call them!

If you’re looking for a Christian-based program, this is one of the best places to consider.
From personal experience, I attended this program back in October 2016 at the age of 20. At that time, I had no direction or discipline in my life. Waypoint Ministry introduced me to both—and so much more.
During the first 30 days of the program, participants go through a “blackout period.” During this time, we weren’t allowed to exercise, as it allowed our bodies to recover from years of drug use and unhealthy lifestyle choices. After 30 days, we were allowed to begin exercising, which was a turning point for me.
It has now been eight years since I graduated from the program. I still stay in contact with the men I attended with, and I cherish the fellowship I experienced there. One of the most impactful parts of the program for me was working in the thrift store. It was a fantastic learning opportunity that taught me soft skills I still use today. Because of that experience, I now enjoy visiting thrift stores and looking for treasures, knowing how much thought and effort goes into sorting donations, stocking the storefront and clothing racks, and even selling items online.
Sadly, I’ve lost a couple of friends over the years because they chose to return to their old lifestyles. However, I’ve also witnessed countless examples of broken men entering the program and leaving as spiritual giants.
Waypoint Ministry opened doors for me to participate in missions trips, youth camps, and even spreading the gospel in prisons. As of 2025, I’m still sober and stay connected with a few people from Waypoint.
If you had told me years ago that my life would turn out this way, I wouldn’t have believed you. If I could sum up this program in one word, it’s love. I came to Waypoint broken and scared, but this place gave me the opportunity to slow down, examine my life and upbringing, and find peace.
Before I started going to Avita it was a struggle, even when I started it was still a bit of a struggle, but with the help of the councilors/Therapist I started to get my life and Mental health under control. Miss Christian has such a great attitude and she is very positive. She has been such a huge help in communicating with me about my appointments/scheduling and is also always making sure im aware of when my medications arive. Miss Noahea is an amazing listener and such a great counselor/Therapist. She has helped me Excell in handling mental health and has helped me reach many goals and so much more. Thank you to all the staff especially Miss Lind. :)

If you make an appointment and stick to it, the wait time is usually reasonable. I have NEVER in 5 years had a problem with the receptionist Betsy, she has always been very nice and professional to me, and the care i received there has always been great. No complaints in 5+ years.
