“I would like to that the time to say how great Princeton detox center was to me. This was my first time ever going into a detox program and I’m glad I came here. The staff and the facility is amazing. Especially Vernon, he’s been very supportive and kind and made me feel comfortable. I’ll forever be grateful!!!”

“My experience at CuraWest during their 30-day residential program was truly life-changing. I came in seeking help with recovery, therapy, medication management, and addiction treatment, and I am leaving with a completely new outlook and the tools I need to continue building a healthy life. One of the most powerful aspects of CuraWest is the staff. The Behavioral Technicians are incredible, and what makes them especially impactful is that many of them are in recovery themselves. The same is true for the therapists, case managers, and even a large portion of the nursing staff. Because they have lived through the same struggles, they genuinely understand what clients are going through. Their empathy, patience, and guidance made it easier to open up and truly engage in the recovery process. The case managers and therapists helped me develop real tools for long-term recovery, not just temporary solutions. Their support and honesty made a huge difference in my progress. I also want to thank the chefs, DJ and Tyler. They made every meal welcoming and positive, and their friendliness helped create a sense of community that made the environment feel supportive and comfortable. The facility itself is excellent. The rooms are comfortable with 50-inch TVs and quality bedding, which helps make the stay feel more like a place of healing than a clinical environment. There are separate lounges for detox and residential clients, including areas to relax and unwind with things like ping pong tables and comfortable spaces to decompress. Most importantly, I’m leaving CuraWest feeling like a new person. The program gave me the tools, support, and perspective I needed to continue my recovery journey with confidence. I am deeply grateful to the entire team at CuraWest for their dedication, compassion, and commitment to helping people rebuild their lives.”

“Guardian IOP has been such an amazing experience for me. Words cannot express the gratitude I have for the staff here. Tim, Kim and Tina have been absolutely wonderful. They have treated every single client with dignity and respect, regardless of their stories. I will carry all the tools and materials I have learned and obtained here for the rest of my life! I wish this was not ending for me but I am changing jobs and have to move 🙁 I would 150% recommend this program to anyone seeking sobriety/help. Truly a life changing program and experience! Much love, Peter Araps”

“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.”
