A Place of Hope for Depression

I came to the Center looking for hope in a hopeless world. It is as advertised. Everyone from the admissions team, the front desk team, to the counselors are so compassionate, caring and focused on your growth. It is evident on day one. The Center is extremely organized and works to make sure your needs are understood. I couldn't recommend this place more regardless of religious affiliation. more

Well, my treatment team probably saved my life. They found an anomaly in my bloodwork and immediately referred me to an oncologist, and followed up to ensure I was able to make appointments, and communicate with them as needed. I didn't want my phone, but I unfortunately needed it, and they provided it. And Patricia, my ARNP, was very concerned and caring about my prescription dosage, and reduced it to a healthy amount which, to my surprise, was actually still effective! The Center provided me tools and resources I desperately needed to guide me towards a better life, were I can now manage my anxiety, cope with my depression, and truly understand why these disorders exist in my life. A caring and compassionate staff provides an environment where everyone truly seems happy to be there, especially after the first week. Thank you for being there for me. more

The Center is a place of hope indeed. The care, curriculum, community are all second to none. I would recommend anyone struggling with the types of issues that are addressed here take the courageous step and say 'yes.' It has changed my life in ways I did not believe were possible for me. I feel like a new person in some ways, and that's a really big deal and I'm incredibly grateful. more

The Center is an amazing place and program that combines compassion and expertise to create the perfect environment for healing. The education received is immediately applicable and allows you to focus entirely on personal issues, questions, concerns, and problems when with your personal counseling team. 100% of the care and the team is concerned with creating a welcoming and effective environment. The opportunity to go on the healing journey with other people who are there to receive help was unexpectedly important for my own process of recovery and healing. Thank you to everyone at The Center! more

The Center gave me part of my life back. With their help I confronted my anxiety and depression issues and that was coming in with a level 8/9 out of 10. I now am approximately a 3 out of 10 most days. They also helped me through trauma I have been holding since childhood and kept going through my early 20's. The extreme care and professionalism has made this a no-brainer choice for me. more

Hey there! King Julian here (: I just wanted to say to you who may be on the fence for coming here for the center that this is the safest and friendliest place ive ever been apart of. The staff, the counselors/therapists, event the people that come here are... next level amazing. EVERYONE here comes here because they want to get better. This is the place to be. You wont regret is. You deserve this experience. more

My goal in coming to the Center was to stop suicidal ideations, pornography use, and my disordered eating. Everyone I spoke to on the Admissions Team was friendly and helpful, especially when I had unusual questions about accommodating my need to pump milk for my baby at home and accessibility when I was in a walking boot. They were the first step toward the hope I didn't even know I needed. My treatment team was amazing and I am so grateful for France and Janine especially. The assignments and conversations that we had and went over were insightful and helpful in processing and learning how I could address my behavior and reshape how I think of myself in terms of my past trauma. The work around shame and sexual abuse and eating behaviors was especially meaningful. France is an absolute Godsend. Her ability to convey worth and help me to begin to find compassion for myself is one of the greatest kindnesses done for me here. Janine's respect for how my mind works was also so kind and helped me to look at things in a different light. These two women probably saved my life and changed the course of my family. My medical team was lovely too. Everyone was so helpful and kind. I am so grateful for my time at the Center. I highly recommend this center for anyone struggling. more

I came to the Center in a very low, dark place. I was struggling to process trauma and was coping by supressing and numbing in very unhealthy ways. I had deep-seated pain and anger that was seeping out, hurting, and scaring those who I loved the most. Coming here was one of the best decisions I've made and it has been a life changing experience. I have learned DBT skills and now possess the tools necesary to process my trauma and cope with my anxiety and depression in a healthy way. It is a challenging process but one that is made possible by the talented and compassionate team here at the Center. I felt supported and encouraged by my therapists, psychiatrist, naturopath and fellow clients of the Center. I am very grateful for this experience and can't recommend this treatment program enough to anyone struggling. You are worth it. There are better days ahead. more

I was nervous and fearful to make the initial call, and unsure how to describe why I needed to come. But they listened, questioned appropriately and I ended the call knowing I was understood and that the Center was a good fit for me. Fast forward to 6 life-changing, amazing weeks. Thank you!!! I spent many years afraid to get help even though I knew I needed it. All I have received here still makes me feel like I'm living in a dream. Thank You! more

I spent 4 weeks at The Center. it is an absolutely incredible place to deal with any sort of issue related to mental health. The people there are wonderfully compassionate and insightful, and the level of care is unlike anything I have ever experienced. I cannot speak more highly of the staff, the program, the content, the process, and the effectiveness of the work that is done at the Center. more

The Center is an amazing place, it is a gift from God himself. Everyone treats you like you really matter and like you are important. They really treat your whole well being. I have found out so much about myself that didn't know, which gives me the opportunity to learn and grow in the areas I need help in the most. I am thankful for the amazing councelors who are kind, patient and very knowledgeable Thank you Dr. Jantz for creating such a wonderful place that really helps people to get well. more

The place is wonderful with a whole host of nonjudgmental individuals who are happy and ready to empathize with your situations. Anyone who has doubts about whether life is worth living, whether or not they can ever belong, whether or not they could be loved, there are people ready to help here. Do yourself and your loved ones a favor; come get the help you deserve. more

The Center claims to be a place of hope. Well, they are correct. For me, it wasn't that they provided me with new hope, but they revealed the hope that has always been there, I was just blind to it. The staff is extremely understanding and they truly cared for me. I didn't just feel like a number in this program of many. I felt like me, and I was seen and cared for. The process was hard, but this is only the beginning. My time here has been a rollercoaster, but I am so thankful for the staff, the intentionality behind my treatment plan, and the encouragement to continue pursuing healing after the Center. They don't claim to be the end all be all, they just simply are providing a launching off point to fully understanding my trauma and current struggles so that I can go forward and have the tools needed to live a hopeful life once again. more

I would highly suggest the Center, the staff here are very caring and highly trained to dig deeper than you can ever imagined. If you are hopeless this is the place for you. I am better than I could of ever imagined in my life. more

The Center a place of hope provides DBT therapy which helped me a lot. I came with pretty high anxiety, constant suicidal ideation (unprompted and for years before), and pretty bad depression, and I left with a lot of valuable information, skills and knowledge that helped me get to know myself and learn how to work with myself rather than fighting myself. There was a lot of religion mentioned, but if that isn't your thing (like me) it isn't forced on you and the help is actually valuable and not just "believe god has a plan". I found legitimate skills for my problems that actually helped me. more

The Center saved my life. I came here broken emotionally, and had very little self worth. I had constant thoughts of suicide, and didn't know what to do to change those feelings. The Center taught me emotional regulation skills, as well as the ability to stand up for myself and protect my core values. I am so thankful I decided to come here, and would and will recommend this place to anyone who is struggling with mental health issues. more

I came to the Center to help with anxiety and depression surrounding my benzodiazepine taper. I have learned important coping skills to better manage the emotional extremes I experience. One of the biggest benefits of coming here was working with my assigned psychiatric contact, who really encouraged me to slow my taper down. I was reluctant to do so, but it has made a huge difference in my ability to cope. more

The center is a great place. The community, the staff, and the environment, both emotional and physical, is a perfect place to heal. I have healed tremedously while I have stayed here. I have healed in more ways than one and I really appreciate everybody I have met, including the staff and other patients. I have a soft spot for this place and I really think if you are on the fence on going you "could" (not should, don't should on yourself) come here and benefit just as much as I did. I wouldn't say I'm cured but I am definitely much less depressed and anxious and grateful to be alive. more

Wow! There are not enough words to describe how greatful I am for John, Justin, Michelle, Alex, Nick, Louis, Heather, Renee, Janie. They were all really amazing and I learned so much from them about things I didn't even know I was struggling with. more

I didn't know what was wrong with me. Suicadal thoughts came back and I no longer could enjoy food or anything else. I isolated and also hated being alone. I asked my Pastor if he knew of anywhere I can go to get help. I told he had been waiting for me to ask him that question. So I came here to the Center. The family medical leave act (FMLA) allowed me to leave my job without reprecussion and I was able to go on short-term disability pay as well as have my insurance cover the services rendered. Here, I learned how to become aware of what I was feeling and to accept that. The depression, anxiety, and PTSD I developed was a result of the trauma that happened to me. I learned that healing is my responsibilty. During my time here, I've become aware that sadness and anger are emotions that benefit and serve me. I learned how to become sound in my thinking and a healthy individual for my wife and my son. The codependency that I struggled with no longer suffocates them. I now see and believe in my self-worth and can role model that for my family. I highly encourage you to attend this place of hope because You. Are. Worth. It. more
