“Stephanie Pittaro is one of the best speech therapists I have had the pleasure of working with. The care she shows her clients is uniquely designed to show her skills and expertise to help them excel in their journey. Her ability to better the lives of children at such an impressionable age is very much appreciated. Honestly she can provide speech services to anyone. She has so much patience and dedication to really to help others. I would recommend her services to everyone in need of quality support that is one of a kind.”

“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. The program completely changed my view of recovery, especially as far as 12 step. They present it in a way I have never seen or heard before. Every single person on the staff, from Techs to Admin to Clinicians are amazing. They all are very caring and considerate due in part that most or all of them have been through it. I could not recommend or thank the Guardian staff/team enough.”

“Pine Tree Recovery is the first detox I’ve been to and has set the bar high for any kind of hospitalizations. Staff aid you through the worst of withdrawals and treats their patients like adults. The atmosphere is very calm and welcoming and the food is fantastic. I would recommend PTR to anyone struggling with alcohol and any other addictions.”

“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”

“I recently finished the program here, and it was fantastic.. I was never able to stay sobor and today i reached my 10 months of sobriety. I did residential here which was great the place is gorgeous! I really liked the fact how they did not keep you trapped inside the entire stay... You get to go to the gym/park/beach/movies/bowling! They also guide you through the big book in depth, which was different then other treatment centers. After I completed residential I did the follow up programs of PHP/IOP. I recommend all.”
