“It’s hard to explain how much of a gift Guardian was for me. I never thought I’d ever walk into a mental health IOP, but my depression was equally as unexpected. My resistance to group therapy disappeared faster than I expected, because Guardian made me feel understood. Guardian pulled me out of waters I was close to drowning in. Their program kept me accountable, taught me things I didn’t even realize I needed, and gave me tools that allowed me to find myself again. They helped me open up about things I had buried without realizing, and they saw strength in me at a time when I couldn’t see any in myself. Every therapist, counselor, and staff member made me feel safe, validated, and genuinely cared for in a way I’ll never forget. They became the support system I didn’t even realize I needed. If anyone needs help, needs strength, needs Hope.. give yourself the gift of Guardian. I dove in headfirst, let go of judgment for myself, and soaked in everything they offered. And because of that, I’m standing where I am today. Guardian - a name that truly reflects what this program has been for me. A place I know, if need be, I can always return to, to find my way. So thank you. So much. My gratitude to each one of you and the program as a whole is endless. Sending all of my love xo”

“Walking through the doors for recovery is one of the scariest things. Right away the staff was welcoming, kind, and very supportive. Throughout my stay every team within Curawest was helpful. Everyone was well knowledgeable, in all areas. From the front lines/Bhts, case management, and therapists, I was provided the best level of care. Curawest is a very safe place, and always provided groups and therapy to help with not only detoxing, but helping to provide tools for prolonged recovery and sobriety. I highly recommend Curawest as a number 1 place to receive care and treatment for substance use!!”

“Very good at listening and being patient with me. Sat and listened to how I felt and made me feel heard. Did a awsome job at answering any questions”

“Guardian was such a blessing! Changed my life. I’ve been to so many rehabs and this one was hands down the best I’ve ever had and I feel like I have such a higher chance of success because of the people that work there! The techs, the people that work in the front, the therapists, the nurses, and the AMAZING chefs are what makes this place the best imaginable choice for anyone that wants a real chance at sobriety. Thank you all so much!! Guardian will always have a special place in my heart!”

“My Plymouth House experience was very inspirational. It provided me with education on the disease as well as tools and resources to maintain my sobriety. It was therapeutic, uncovering the feelings I was masking by drinking. Lastly, it was supportive and encouraging, understanding my individual needs.”
