Terrible therapy Terrible therapy. Not 12 step base. Barely CBT. Not DBT. Trauma Therapist tells clinical director everything about patient's session then patient immediately discharged for bogus reasons. Like finical even though patient willing to be a self pay. Patients' rooms horrible. Hospital beds in each room and no televisions. Worst alcoholic and mental health treatment facility.

Horrible place! There for more than eight different things I was told in order to get me down there. None of them ended up being true. For example, there was a five-star chef. That was not true. I was told I would see my therapist 4 times a week. That was not true. I was told we would have yoga and massages. That was not true. I was told we would have Equine Therapy. That was also not true and the list goes on. They say that in order to persuade people to get there, and it is deceitful. We were locked in when its already tough enough to be sober, and the medical and clinical staff are sub par. There was a boy who overdosed and died in the treatment center while we were there in treatment and it was a horrible experience. I understand that treatment centers are also a business, but this one is a perfect example. It is simply about the money and they don't care. There are a few that therapist there who do care but overall I would recommend going somewhere else.

BEWARE Advertises you can inquire about ur loved one w/immediate response - Nothing is further from the truth; voicemails never returned bcuz they don’t monitor messages, they refuse to answer a ringing phone. Administration says ‘they r not on site,’ lol, but they really are, it’s simply an excuse to get u off their back. They try to pacify moms w/a bunch of phone numbers that they themselves know do not get answered. I was so worried, I had complete ROI from my daughter, her nurse Jason spoke to me 1X in 6 days 😢. I guess the staff are just sick & tired of Addicts and can’t get jobs elsewhere, the pay must be minimum wage. Policy changed between the time I was told to send patients belongings to only pkgs from Retail stores are accepted. This place is a total cluster . Now I am told my daughter’s (patient) belongings that had arrived and never given to her will not be returned home, wow, wow, wow! This facility is as unstable as our addicted loved ones. My daughter went straight to ER after having to leave this facility.

Detox too fast. I loved most of the staff. However, I left early because I felt the detox process was too rapid. I believe I would have been successful had someone listened to me and adjusted the process accordingly. Other than that, I would recommend Palmer Lake and would like to return for treatment as I am still looking for help. The anxiety I was experiencing caused me to behave poorly and was the reason I left the facility far earlier than I should have.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE THEY ARE… STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE THEY ARE INSURANCE SCAMMERS!!!!!!! No stars this place will take advantage of the vulnerable please never send a loved one here.
