Testimonials
“I was a patient at Wellness from March 07-June 07. I recently celebrated one year of sobriety (February 15, 2008) and thought I should let you guys know. I use a lot of the tools, living skills and lessons I learned at Wellness. I don’t think my story is unique. Perhaps unique to me because it was my first year of sobriety, after multiple attempts over the last decade. Wellness was also the last of five treatment centers I had been to in 2 years. I believe my successes are a direct result of the hard work I did at Wellness, which set me up for the hard work I am able to do on a daily basis. I work the steps, go to a meeting day, have a sponsor, you know the usual. Also, I dropped twenty pounds and quit smoking too! Being hyper-vigilant about my health extends further than my recovery, but recovery is always first.
I thank you folks at Wellness for being a place that offered me a platform to do the work and I guess...being pretty tough about it. My life was not only unmanageable, it was unlivable prior to treatment. My last suicide attempt left me within minutes of death, and now I live a full and meaningful life. That’s awesome and truly a miracle, a miracle that can happen for anyone who walks through those doors.”

“I was a patient at your facilities during the summer, fall, and part of winter in 2004. I’m writing to thank you. I’m not sure whether you get gratitude as much as you all deserve it, but you certainly helped me. Your facility saved my life. While there, I was a bit of a controversial patient, and eventually broke ties with your facility following my dismissal from the halfway house, however, have always wanted to express my gratitude with the staff there...I have been sober since May 10th of 2004—almost four years now!!! I’m a college student again, am 22 years old, and am a member of the local national honor society (straight As since enrolling back in school!). I’ve been renting my own three bedroom house now for three years, and have a girlfriend I’ve been dating for a year whom I plan on marrying. All this is being said as evidence of the impact you made in my life. Before I attended your rehab, I never even considered my dreams. Oh, I had them, but as crazy as it sounds, I never even considered that I could amount to them—to amount to anything. I was an ex-soccer jock high-schooler with depression issues and a hell of a crystal meth addiction once I got into college in Montana. Now, I’m looking at transferring to a state school, or even an art academy—I have colleges offering me tens of thousands of dollars in scholarships—my landlord says I’m his best tenant ever—and most importantly, I have self-respect like I never knew existed. Thank you!! I just wanted you guys to know that—that what you do, on a daily basis, truly does change lives.”
