“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!!!”

“My experience in this IOP program has been truly positive and has made a meaningful difference in my recovery\. The staff, especially Julie, Amy, and Ana, are amazing\. They genuinely care about the people they work with and go above and beyond to make you feel supported, understood, and never judged\. Their compassion, patience, encouragement, and understanding helped me feel comfortable opening up and working through the challenges of recovery\. I always felt like they truly wanted to see me succeed and were invested in my well\-being\. I’m incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I received here\. This program gave me tools, encouragement, and confidence that have helped me continue moving forward in my recovery. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking for a caring and supportive environment to begin or continue their recovery journey\.”

“Committing to recovery was intimidating but the staff at Pine Tree was across the board supportive and professional and really put me at ease. I had some minor medical complications during my stay and the nursing staff was SO kind and helpful getting me back on my feet. My 5 year sober anniversary is a month away and I still carry the things I learned at Pine Tree that gave me a good foundation for my recovery journey and keep in touch with people I met there. A very good experience.”
