South was a really good change of pace for me, I had been to the other location at PSL and I felt like I got a lot out of this community, and staff, everyone treats you with respect, and is always there for you when you need them, I love the staff here, and I am grateful I was able to make it back, and come here thanks guys !
Man, the level of care provided here is phenomenal. It's super nice, super comfortable. Alot of healing. They connect with people on a deep level. When it's time to transition back into real life your reluctant to go because they feel like family.
My therapist Karah was amazing. She was very supportive but also motivated me which is a good balance for me because I've had a lot of enablers in my life. Our sessions always felt very natural, she always respected me if I didn't want to talk about things. TA Keita always made me feel like she was there for me by going out of her way to help me with little things. She was warm and welcoming, it feels like she actually cares about us and doesn't look at us like we are just clients. I love the AA meetings, I went pretty much every night. I played volleyball almost every day. They had nightly community events like art night, and trivia night which was nice to have fun sober. I got lots of resources and tools while I was here, they helped me set up my aftercare. Overall, I would recommend however in the last few weeks I've noticed a change with the clients and staff and the groups, but when I first got here I really enjoyed the groups and overall the community is very welcoming.
