Best Kirkland, WA Drug Rehab Centers

I had a life crisis that I was going through at the time. It was alright there. Smelled like cleaning chemicals. Medication management was excellent. Food was good enough since you could select what you want, and they give a lot of it. I met some real good people during my 15 day stay. Staff was a little aloof, but at least they weren’t up my butt all day. Overall it was a positive experience.

Best place I've ever stayed at

I am deeply grateful for the care, structure, and humanity that Fairfax Behavioral Health’s IOP Evening Program provided me during one of the most difficult chapters of my life. The team—particularly Ms. Joy (Nurse Practitioner), Tuba, and Agazit—helped me begin rebuilding when I was gravely paralyzed (mental and emotional) and uncertain if healing was possible. When I entered the program, I was dealing with acute anxiety, depression, and symptoms of PTSD. I had spent decades high-functioning on the outside, but numb and exhausted on the inside—emotionally blunted by medications that allowed me to “push through” while my mental health steadily declined. At first, I was intimidated by the other participants—many were still able to work and engage in daily activities - far more together than I was, despite being here for the same reasons. But I soon realized they were simply at a different stage of the same journey. I realized that I should have gotten the help much sooner but, I at least took the first step. One of the most valuable lessons I took away from this experience was that I didn’t need to “perform” wellness—I just needed to show up honestly. That realization alone was transformative. Ms. Joy, the Nurse Practitioner overseeing everyone’s medication plans, was instrumental in helping me pivot in my prescription. After trying multiple prescriptions over the previous year, she gently reintroduced Wellbutrin—despite my history of negative reactions. With her confidence and insight, I took the leap; I was extremely suicidal but less suicidal- I am grateful. Tuba and Agazit were unwavering in their patience, guiding a group of vulnerable individuals—each navigating their own pain—with structure, kindness, and grace. They led the group with empathy while holding space for difficult emotions and growth. Their ability to connect while managing complex group dynamics was remarkable. While I am far from being where I want to be, I can honestly say that this program gave me glimmers of something I hadn’t felt in a long time: stillness. I’m not yet standing on solid ground—but there is now a glimmer of hope. That alone is an instrumental step toward wellness. It will be awhile until I get back on consistent track in regards to executive functions as PTSD symptoms doesn't just go away. If you’re considering IOP, and especially if you’re feeling skeptical like I was, Fairfax is worth your trust; you won't be fully healed but it is one step in the right direction. This team offers more than clinical treatment—they offer presence, care, and a path forward with reality.

It's walk in only, and they do not do ongoing care. It's an urgent care type setup. However, they helped me get the medication I needed while I waited for an available doctor appointment. I've been on this medication a long time, so it was easy to get the refill. They don't prescribe ADHD meds.
