    Good lord this place was stressful…read more I was located in 200 - which is a mellow part of the hospital - for 3 weeks. The food... terrible. I lost a few pounds there because the food was so bad that I often times went without eating. Also, we (me and the other patients) were basically confined to a hallway, and part of the day we were allowed time in a small crowded day room with a TV that was encased in the wall behind a clear plastic panel, when combined with the elevated volume of the TV made an unbearable racket of noise that induced headaches and contributed to the stressful environment. Outside time was extremely scarce due to a lack of staff. We were basically stacked on top of each other in there, and what can I say, it was just a very stressful place. Also of note, my daughter tried for a week to call me and the staff who answered the phone either told her that I was refusing calls (untrue) or would bounce her call around to different parts of the hospital before being left on indefinite hold resulting in her hanging up and trying again the next day. This happened multiple times. Yes, I am accusing this hospital of willfully violating basic patient rights. However, Dr Kletz was awesome, as was Danni, and Norah, and Anthony, and several other staff of who I cannot remember their names. I hope I never go back to this hospital -- you'll have to catch me and drag me back, and good luck with that.

    My daughter was recently admitted to this facility and has since been discharged. I want to share…read moreour experience honestly because I don't believe this environment is the right fit for every child. My daughter is compliant, kind, and non-disruptive, yet during her stay she repeatedly called me saying she did not feel safe due to frequent fights and the overall atmosphere on the adolescent unit. She also expressed frustration with basic care routines, hygiene opportunities were limited because of the strict schedule, and even when time was available to brush teeth, she says she was denied. What concerned me most was the way some staff interacted with the patients. My daughter felt unheard and dismissed, and she reported that staff members occasionally used inappropriate language toward the teenagers. Medication also seemed to be offered very frequently despite her declining it. Thankfully, a few fellow patients helped support and comfort her during the experience, otherwise I believe her mental state could have worsened significantly. After three days, I was finally able to discharge her. Upon discharge, the facility referred us to a virtual IOP program, but personally it felt impersonal and more financially driven than individualized. Instead, I've chosen to work directly with her pediatrician to find an IOP better suited to her specific needs and personality. That said, there were several staff members who truly stood out and deserve recognition. Abby, who handled my daughter's intake, went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. Alex, an MHT, was compassionate and supportive throughout her stay, and Tessa genuinely seemed to care about the wellbeing of the patients. Those individuals made a meaningful difference during a difficult time. One additional challenge was communication as a parent. Reaching someone by phone or getting updates about my child was extremely difficult and often frustrating. I don't necessarily place all the blame on the facility itself. To me, this experience highlights a larger issue within mental health care in the United States: while awareness has improved, there is still a long way to go in creating environments that truly feel safe, supportive, and individualized for young people. Medication can help in some situations, but it is not always the complete answer. Long-term healing also requires effective coping skills, emotional support, and personalized care.

    After gently meeting you where you are, these clinicians will collaborate and walk beside you --…read moreholding grounded, trauma-informed space and bearing compassionate witness to your sacred unfolding in the safe container of the therapeutic alliance. Also they are solution-focused, client-centered and dedicated to fostering self-awareness, an extremely technical expertise and specialization which is quite rare these days and an important distinction between them and other practices. Especially refreshing is their openness to intellectual and philosophical exploration -- they welcome thoughtful reflection about the nature of the therapeutic process itself. They relish questions about the therapeutic mask, over-pathologization, the paradoxes, structure, inherent tensions and artificiality of the therapeutic frame, asymmetric authenticity, power dynamics, and performative empathy. You'll feel empowered. They're true partners in healing.
