Top Ranked Drug Rehab Centers In Oxford, MS

A little over 3 years ago, I visited my 16-year-old nephew during a Family Day at Stonewater. I was proud of the progress he had made and could see that their program was having a huge impact, not only on him, but also on his mother. However, if I am being completely honest, I did not have a lot of hope that he would be able to stay sober once he was back in the “real world.” He completed Stonewater’s 90 day program and then went to a therapeutic boarding school directly after. I am thrilled to share that my nephew has surpassed any hopes I had for him. He is a full time college student, living on campus, working a part-time job, and doing it all clean and sober! His success is in no small part due to the foundation he received while at Stonewater. Thank you to the entire team for their love, dedication, and ongoing support.

What I remember most clearly from those first days after my son arrived at Stonewater is how everyone I spoke with treated me with compassion and respect. Unlike our previous treatment experiences, I did not feel disconnected from my son's care or left out of his healing journey. I felt seen, heard, and understood. It quickly became clear that my son would not be the only one receiving help and support. His dad and I would, too. For the first time in a long time, I felt hope returning. Knowing my son was safe allowed me to take a deep breath for the first time in months, if not years. Being surrounded by people who had experience with struggles similar to my son's or who understood firsthand the challenges of being a parent in our position was incredibly comforting. My daughter also felt a sense of relief knowing her brother was safe and that she could feel more secure and comfortable in our home. And then there was the large graffiti “HELP” sign my son had painted a few weeks before his arrival. That sign had weighed heavily on my heart, but knowing he was at Stonewater brought me a sense of solace and helped me believe he was exactly where he needed to be. Meeting virtually with staff after my son's arrival allowed me to put faces to the people caring for him, making him feel a little less far away. Weekly updates, along with additional communication when needed, helped me feel connected to his care. Whenever I reached out with questions or concerns, staff responded with honesty and openness. I felt like a valued part of my son's treatment team, and that meant so much to me. Our family therapy sessions gave us the opportunity to begin rebuilding our relationships and practicing communication skills. We also connected twice a month with current and former Stonewater families through a parent support group. Those meetings quickly became something I looked forward to. They brought comfort, encouragement, understanding, and, most importantly, hope. It meant so much to connect with other families who truly understood what we were going through. There are a couple of moments that stand out when I think about the care my son received. One was when I learned, from 900 miles away, that my son needed crowns on two of his teeth. Dana went above and beyond to make sure he received the care he needed while keeping me involved as his mom. It was another reminder that the staff cared about him as a whole person and understood the importance of including our family in his care. Another moment that has stayed with me was when my son became upset during a therapy session and walked out. Bec went to get him, and we were surprised to learn that he had chosen to return to class. This might seem like a small thing, but to us, it spoke volumes about the progress he was making and how safe and comfortable he felt in his classroom and with Mr. Farmer. For the first time in his life, school had become a safe place he could turn to when he was upset. As a mom, that meant more to me than I can explain. Following the recommendations of the Stonewater staff, my son has continued on to further treatment. Although he is no longer there, he will receive monthly support calls from Kristi for the next year and has the opportunity to participate in alumni calls with her and the other Stonewater boys. His dad and I can also continue attending family support meetings. Knowing these connections remain available to our family is incredibly reassuring. Stonewater has become an important part of our village, and I am so grateful that those relationships do not have to end just because my son has moved on to another level of care. I will forever be grateful for the foundation Stonewater helped us lay. They supported our family when we desperately needed it, helped us begin rebuilding relationships, and reminded us that we were not alone. Most importantly, they gave me hope for my son and our family's future. That is a gift I will never forget.

Who knew what that comparison work I did many months would lead to. While researching other adolescent recovery programs and nearing making a different choice, but something just didn’t feel right, I did another comparison on the computer and my searching identified Stonewater as a possible better fit. Yes, it certainly did “fit” what my husband and I were searching for our son and for us and feel beyond blessed that we took the step with Stonewater. I appreciate the support and guidance you have given me and my husband through this journey. From the first call (and subsequent calls) to Bridget, the intake call with PJ and meeting all the members our son would be in contact with at that first meeting, (Dana, Mr. Farmer, Simone, etc.) to the 24 hour after placement call from Charles (who was so calming and caring during this call as it was just a hot 24 hours since our son came to Stonewater via transport), the ongoing connections with the team, being greeting by the Fikes family at our first family visit, our son’s therapist Simone, Jeff, the family therapy/visit days, Kristi, and being so warmly welcomed each time we visited the Stonewater team has just been simply fantastic to work with. I honestly don’t know what to say besides thank you. Thank you to you the entire Stonewater team/family. You are all beyond stellar from the start. You have all been beyond supportive, understanding, knowledgeable, caring, dependable, etc. But ultimately the love in the care that you have for these boys and particularly our son to help stabilize and prepare for the next journey is beyond words. These are not just words – you can see it and feel it in the interactions and the in-person visits, the family alumni calls, etc. Just as we do, I’m sure your days can be filled with challenges and working with us as parents and families, insurance, the boys themselves, and then just life. Know that it has not gone and noticed, by I know myself and my husband. You guys “rock it “! Thank you, again seems so little in comparison to what you all have done and the “gift” to continue on this journey you all have provided. You are truly a team and we continue to feel a part of this team and abundantly blessed by each and everyone one of you and the experience. My husband and I so grateful. Keep doing what you are doing! Sadly there is such a need for this and while the boys not all say or feel it when they are there, they too are or were so blessed to be at Stonewater.

Thank you Oxford for helping me get my life back right. This place is absolutely amazing. If your looking for a place to go that actually cares about your recovery and puts it first then this is where you need to be...

I absolutely love the facility and my therapist Shelby, she was the GOAT! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs to turn their life around from drugs or alcohol abuse. The counselors and TAs here are more than helpful and knowledgeable in the rehabilitation field and the grounds are great.

He is a very caring person and he explained everything very clearly

It has now been around 6 months since I have successfully discharged from Parkwood cottage C. At my time there, I was give both the chance to improve my self-control, and the chance to get a second chance at life. Although I had troubles at times, my support team and therapist helped me get through it. Thank you all so very much for the effort you gave to me. From the nurses, technicians, therapists, teachers, and every staff members who helped me. I hope and pray that everyone who enters this program understands that it is a chance at a better life after leaving. I now have a better mindset, more control over my life, and know how to communicate better. Thank you, Ms.Faith, Ms.Christina, Mr.Malcolm, Mr.Ben. Thank you Dr.Arnold. Thank you Mr.Irvine and Mr.Copeland. Thank you nurse Cathy, nurse Carrie, and Mr.Darius.
