FreshPath Recovery came through for me when I thought I was outta options. From day one, the vibe was chill and welcoming — no judgment, just real ones who get what you’re going through. The staff? Straight-up lifesavers. They kept it honest, pushed me when I needed it, and always had my back.What hit different here was how personal everything felt. They weren’t just clocking in — they actually cared. The detox was tough, no lie, but they made sure I felt supported every step. I walked out with a clear head, a stronger mindset, and a plan.
