Review content:
I can't recall if where I went was Dorsett or Flat Shoals, and for some reason they don't seem to have an address on their website. I was at Inner Harbour for a couple of months in the fall of 2000. The attitude of the staff toward the adolescents didn't seem particularly understanding or empathetic. I can kind of understand the purpose behind rigid rules and structure - you couldn't go to dinner without lining up at a column and going through this whole song-and-dance, and you couldn't enter or exit your own freaking room without asking a staff for permission - but it crossed the line from possibly helpful to simply absurd and overbearing. More like boot camp than an open, nurturing environment. The person who managed my case wasn't understanding at all, though I can't remember her name - a thin black woman with short hair. The educational instruction was done by a big black Christian lady who didn't hesitate to share (read: impose) her beliefs on us, so it was a good thing I was a Christian at the time. However, while I was there they planned on taking patients on a field trip to sign ""Love in Every Language"" in front of some people, but they held that field trip over our heads like it was the key to our salvation with the way they kept threatening not to take us. The bedroom doors had to be open at all times, but at night they would loudly play music in the main lounge and it was always Dido - that should be grounds alone to make the place more of a torture facility than a therapeutic environment. Okay, I kid, but it was awful. The staff would also talk VERY loud and laugh at night when patients were trying to sleep, and like I said, we couldn't close our doors.
Pros: Good group family therapy and day program
Cons: Absurdly strict residential environment - more like boot camp than nurturing home. Power-tripping staff.
