I came here for mental health and they really screwed me over. After finding that most of the…read moretherapy they have on their website was not provided at this location, I left because I was paying out of pocket and the mostly group therapy, music therapy, acupuncture, and reiki they offered wasn't worth the 10K I was paying out of pocket. I came expecting a serious therapy-focused program and was sorely disappointed. If you're looking into Recovery Team Newton yourself READ EVERYTHING on the website, especially anything asterisked. Now, because I voluntarily left, I am having trouble actually finding therapy at home because of the discharge paperwork showing I didn't complete the program. I can't speak from experience about the substance abuse program, but for mental health, this isn't it.

A few weeks later we met another parent who had the unpleasant experience of being condescendingly spoken to at Sameen. Only after our son left Sameen did we find out that they also criticized several decisions we made as parents in front of not only our son but also his group. This is not helpful or supportive behavior...and we paid for this. If you are looking for help we would highly recommend the ARMS program at Mass General where they are very helpful, supportive and understanding to not only the young adult in trouble but also the parents who love, care and are desperate to get help for their children.

Sometimes you need context to understand the content of this program. Is it nicer than most…read morefacilities? Yes. Do they offer flatscreen televisions in the room? It's actually two. Do the tv's function correctly? That depends. Do you get a set of temu wireless headphones? Are they configured to your room? That's a leap of faith. Do you receive three meals a day prepared by a dedicated staff? Yes. Are the beds spacious? Surprisingly so. Are the rooms cleaned daily by a dutiful third party? That's a definite yes. Turn down service if you're paying attention in the afternoon and they are quietly dedicated to removing an almost insurmountable amount of detritus. The kitchen and the cleaning staff are the backbone of Hillside. Will you be able to use your beloved cellphone? Last I heard this was still in place. Do I think it's necessary for people on a detox unit to have access to the outside world? Your mileage may vary. Is the staff caring? For the most part. Are there some people who seem to just exist? In my head there are. Do you form a bond with people who overlap your 28 to 32 days in recovery? If you're human and doing it correctly you try. Mostly though you realize that almost everyone is going to fall and that day trips outside of the protective walls are mostly fantasy. This applies to all facilities and programs. It's like Verizon telling you they'll give you a new phone for free and you'll save money doing it. That's not how profitable businesses work. Does Hillside occasionally catch lightning in a bottle? Yep. When it happens four out of five dentists will say you're fucking nuts, but it does actually happen. Well how about the nursing staff? Let's put it this way. I would let any of them borrow my truck for the weekend and bank on the fact that it comes back clean and with a topped off tank. Follow the golden rule and you'll be able to figure out the rest. Most of their days are filled with unending lines and acute muscle memory. If they look like they're in an another place they're probably dreaming about a beach without people. They are some of the nicest, most professional people I have had the privilege to meet and they come from all walks of life. Now we get to the staff. People who work the floor can vary widely. Some of them you immediately gravitate towards and some of them you keep at arms length. The overnight shift is the most underrated group because they're trying to make sure people are sleeping without waking them. If you happen to catch them with their eyes closed there's generally someone nearby taking a rotation. It's teamwork out of necessity and most of them are either dedicated to the program or younger kids trying to work two jobs. The clinical staff and those who run regularly scheduled weekly groups are hit or miss. This is where content and context are relevant. If you're relating to the individual then you are in luck. I don't care if it's meeting based, rehab pottery or you're listening to that one peculiar weirdo who loves PowerPoint and the brain. If you're learning something it's relevant, if you're enjoying something it's relevant and if you're relating to something it's therapeutic. I won't single out any particular weekly meeting that I think is unnecessary, even the "Hunger Games" meeting where everyone puts forth a wishlist of various items is lowkey hilarious. I have had three very specific requests during my time there. Raisins (no one eats raisins), skinny pop (because I'm fancy) and hand soap in the men's residential bathroom. I don't know if this is gender specific, but body wash and hand soap are not one and the same. I'm currently 0-3, but I will be taking notes when I come back for a commitment meeting. Sorry ladies, boys are gross. I'm still surprised no one else has noticed this. If you've made it this far you're either one of ten current users who turn to Yelp! when seeking out information or you're Tyreek. I'm definitely not spelling that correctly, but here is your honest, no rush assessment of the program and the staff. Feel free to copy and paste. Would I send a loved one here? Yeah, but it still comes down to context and content. I have eternal gratitude for Hillside. It's not perfect, it's occasionally held together by gumption and duct tape and the second elevator might as well be turned into a "safe space for people who love out of order people movers" but at the end of the day they make it work and that has nothing to do with the amenities and everything to do with the spirit of the program.

Despite my client, his family and myself requesting the client's care team reach out to me, as an…read moreexternal provider, Hillside was intentionally deceitful. His case manager, Dan C, claims that I "never tried to reach him." This was laughable because I spoke to many other staff members there who can vouch that not only have I tried to reach him at least 4 different times, but that he was doing a very poor job providing adequate care to a client. I had a bed lined up for my client after discharged, but unfortunately, Hillside likes to use "attached referrals" meaning that despite the best interest on the client, they were going to send him back to the original referral source, Advanced Recovery, an outpatient program that has already NOT worked for him, and resulted in him returning to inpatient. So, instead of properly coordinating with the client's care team (when there was permission to communicate), Dan C decided to ignore my calls until he could sneakily discharge the client TO THE STREET because he wanted to send him back to the Advanced PHP. They sent him to a sober home, but with no plan as to how this client would begin to pay for it, but of course, that wasn't an issue for Hillside, but they got their "points' for returning my clt to the program that "scratched their back first." I attempted to speak to Dan C's supervisor, who was probably the only helpful person there, aside from all of the clinicians and case managers who explained that Dan C's work ethic is not admirable. He of course apologized and connected me to HIS supervisor, Kyle Medeiros. I'm not sure if Kyle or more or less helpful than Dan C. I guess more, since he actually picked up his phone, only to tell me that they "don't help with sober home funding" and when I asked if it was normal practice to just discharge people to be homeless, he maintained that "they can't help him." I'm not sure how this place is still open. This is NOT the first awful experience I have had with them. We are also moving forward with a formal complaint through the state.

I just started my experience with this place so I will come back and update if I learn anything…read moremore but here are my thoughts. First, I was a little shocked that it's possible for a place to ask for a membership fee in order to see their clinicians. However, I just spent 6 months on a wait list somewhere else only to finally get matched with a therapist I really disliked. At thrive, I was actually able to make an appointment with someone the same day that I called! This was huge because honestly I was starting to feel like I was never going to find a therapist. Second thing that is interesting about this place is that you have an assigned care coordinator who actually follows up with you to make sure you like your therapist and that you don't need anything else. This is super cool because I actually reached out to someone at the other non-thrive location I previously was at asking a bunch of questions about if I could change therapists or if I could request a different kind of therapy and never was able to get an answer. Third, I really like my provider. He communicates so well, is available by email and text as well as zoom and FaceTime, and responds quickly. I feel as though he actually cares about me. TLDR/Summary- Despite the price tag, this place was able to connect me to a therapist immediately and the therapy experience is really easy and accessible. Considering other options like Talkspace and Betterhelp charge much more than Thrives membership fee I believe this is so worth the money.
