While supporters praise the staff's dedication and the effectiveness of the DBT skills training, critics frequently cite significant administrative hurdles, including long waitlists, billing disputes, and difficulty communicating with management.

Key Review Excerpts
“My daughter has had to find the 'willingness' to do the work, and the results have been life-changing.”
“I was in the residential program for about 2 months. In those two months, I was able to start the process of getting my shit together.”
“The Friends and Family group that meets via zoom has been incredibly helpful for us to learn the skills of DBT to be able to encourage our daughter to keep working on them outside the program.”
