“I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Guardian Recovery for everything they did for my son and our family. From the moment he entered the program, the care, professionalism, and compassion shown by the staff were truly exceptional. I especially want to thank Robert, the family therapist, along with Leni and Catherine. They were all incredible — not only with my son, but also with me as a parent. My son went there seeking help, and he truly received it. He is healed, set free, and in recoverd. Thank the Lord. I am forever grateful. Guardian Recovery emphasizes structure, discipline, and accountability in the best way possible. The kids wake up on their own, make their beds, take their medications responsibly, attend the gym in the mornings, and earn points for completing chores and following the program. This structure made a huge difference for my son. Before treatment, he resisted taking medication. Now, he comes to me and says, “Ma, give me the meds.” That alone speaks volumes. My son genuinely enjoyed his experience. He learned a lot, feels good about himself, and left the program feeling happy and content. He said the facility feels more like a hotel than a hospital — very clean, comfortable, and homey. He loved the food too! They offered meals teenagers actually enjoy, like Jersey Mike’s, pizza, and Chinese food. He also really liked the group therapy sessions and found them helpful. As a parent, I felt very supported. The staff was attentive and kept in contact with me. Robert was truly a blessing — an angel sent from heaven. We had family therapy sessions every Wednesday morning, and evening group sessions with other parents, which were incredibly helpful and reassuring, especially during the holidays. Another huge plus was academics. My son is a senior, and Guardian Recovery made sure to coordinate with his school counselor so he could continue his schoolwork. That gave me so much peace of mind. The program can last up to six weeks. I chose to take my son home earlier due to Christmas and personal goals, but even in that shorter time, the impact was life-changing. Honestly, I did not find any negatives. If I had to suggest anything, it would be more frequent daily updates — but even then, the communication we did have was excellent. I truly hope I never have to use these services again, but if I ever do, Guardian Recovery would be my top choice. I highly recommend this program to any parent looking for a safe, structured, and caring place for their child to heal and recover. Thank you, Guardian Recovery. 10 out of 10.”

“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%”

“Plymouth House saved my life! I wish I could of stayed longer but it was time for me to go out into the world and do it on my own. Their 12 Step program is the only thing that worked for me. They hold you accountable and have enough support to help you conquer your addiction. They have amazing supportive staff, great food, amazing classes, and amazing clinical staff as well. I don't know where I'd be right now if I didn't go to the Plymouth House. The grounds were beautiful and the living quarters were clean and comfortable. They offered yoga 3 days a week and they were there to help me get back on my feet. Thank you Plymouth House.”

“Unfortunately, this wasn’t my first time in a detox/rehab facility. But after this experience (detox) wise, I’ve never experienced such care medically, emotionally and physically. The staff actually treat you like human being’s because most of them are in recovery too. They laughed with me, listened and did the best they could without any judgment. Even when things were out if their control, they still tried to help. Of course no place is perfect and I understand that. I had the chance to make some grievances about things I didn’t feel that were appropriate. Once I filled out the form, the clinical director met with me the next day. She not only heard me, but she listened to me. That meant a lot and showed that they truly strive to be the best. Fingers crossed I won’t go down the road I have been, but if I do, this is where I’m going. I haven’t been appreciative with a facility like this ever. They care. You just have to do your part in wanting help.”

“My experience at Guardian Recovery was great! I’ve been to treatment 9 times now so I’m familiar with the staff at facilities and there’s was the best I’ve dealt with! All the BHT’s were super knowledgeable because they’ve been in our shoes. Also they truly acted like they cared. If you had a problem they would sit with you and just listen and then try their best to help. The therapist’s were great too! Just all the staff! They have an outing everyday and it rotates between going to an actual gym and the park to get outside where as some other places only do an outing once a week. They also have a tone of snacks that they provide which is great on top of the three meals they give you. Most other places just do meals and then a snack once a day. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone out there that’s suffering from addiction.”

Kathryn M. Princeton Psychiatry & Counseling · 5 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”

“This place is great!!! The have amazing staff, amazing chiefs, amazing groups and amazing therapists, amazing medical staff and amazing case managers. Look truthfully if you’re willing to change your life and get sober you need to be involved and let your higher power guide you. I have nothing negative to say about this place. They helped me through things I didn’t think I could move forward. Give yourself a chance and give them a chance you will never regret coming here cause I know I haven’t.”
