“I can’t thank Guardian IOP enough for everything they have done for me. From the moment I walked in, Tina and Noel made me feel welcome, comfortable and at home. Throughout the weeks, I learned so much about addiction, recovery and myself. The entire staff is knowledgeable, patient and they genuinely care about each and every person there. They fully invest themselves in you and help guide you every step of the way. It truly feels like a family there. This program has helped me to change and grow into a better person and will forever be grateful for this experience.”

Krystin O. New Brunswick Counseling Center · 4 years ago

“If you are struggling, don’t hesitate to reach out to Immersion. It’s not easy but nothing worth doing, ever is. The staff is dedicated and committed to helping you work a 12 step program. This program changed my life and it can change yours too. Don’t get overwhelmed, just take it, ONE DAY AT A TIME”. A sober life offers you so many opportunities; rebuild relationships, get what you lost back and more importantly, find peace inner peace. Life gets so much better but it starts with picking up the phone. A friendly voice will walk you through the process and through the doors. I’m sure you are thinking, the timing is not right. Let me have done the research for you. The time is now and months from now you will look back and say, this is the best decision I ever made. If you want to love again, laugh again and live again; the life ring is being tossed out to you. Grab on and hold on tight and remember your life is worth saving. It all begins here!!!”

Maureen K. Immersion Outpatient · 3 months ago

“Dear RU Lake Worth When I came here a month ago I was physically alive but emotionally and spiritually dead. I had completely given up on even the possibility of a normal, let alone a "good" life. In all honesty I had been planning my suicide for months. Within weeks your staff and community had shown me that such a life is possible. You all not only saved my life but showed me a new one is not only possible but fully within my reach. I owe you all a debt I will never be able to fully repay and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. From the moment Dom did my intake I felt welcomed. Talking to Ryan, Ana and Dwayne was super helpful and made me feel at home during a very emotionally fragile time. The entire staff here gives a shit about their clients and that makes a world of difference. My therapist Anuska was a joy to talk to and helped me with any problem I needed to talk yo her about. Larry, Donna, Anastasia, Marissa and the rest ofnthe staff and techs made my stay and transition to recovery as easy as possible. Recovery Unplugged is truly a beacon of light to those lost in the sea of addiction and it is the staff that make that light shine. You all are saving lived here as sure as any hospital emergency room. I will recommend this place to all I meet lost at sea. A special shootout to Namania, Tiffany and Ana for running a tight ship crewed by heroes. Yours very truly. Mattheau Coburn”

“I called guardian recovery at around 8 at night, they were very attentive and eating get me right to pine tree detox. (They even offered to uber me there.) once I got there I couldn’t have had a better experience, detox wasn’t fun, but the techs and nursing staff made it go as smoothly as possible. Upstairs at pine trees 28 day Residential program was just what I needed, I felt comfortable and supported my whole stay. Would definitely recommend 1000%”
