When a loved one was admitted to Gooden Center, the entire family was scared, uncertain, and worried about the quality of care and whether we could trust in their promise of wellness. After 30 days at Gooden, we couldn't be more thankful for the results we saw!! We were so appreciative of the entire staff (who are truly REMARKABLE!!) that we opted for an additional 60 days of care in the PHP and IOP programs. The entire family cannot express how blown away by the care and concern for our loved one. Special thanks to Eddie (an amazing therapist in the PHP program), Candace (a case worker who is an angel on earth!), and Paul (who facilitated our first family therapy session and helped us communicate better). I wish I could say it a thousand times over, but for now, these four small words must suffice: THANK YOU GOODEN CENTER.

I've been debating whether to post this review for a while, but I think it's time I do…read more The worst treatment center I've ever been to. I had money on my card the entire time, yet my caseworker never took the time to sign a slip to withdraw it and put it on my account. She also failed to arrange a trip to procurement so I could get clothes, even though all my leggings and personal clothing were taken away upon admission. It got so bad that other patients were gifting me clothes to wear because I had none--entirely due to my caseworker Kylie's neglect. Overall, I felt completely unadvocated for and as though my caseworker had a genuine disdain for me. I've been to several treatment centers throughout my life, and this was by far the worst. They kicked me out for telling my roommate "I'm not the one" after a heated argument ensued. They already knew tensions between us were building, and she had been repeatedly targeting me by running to the program office, even while I was severely sick with a stomach flu that put me in the hospital. I wasn't the one who went to the office to report her either, because I don't believe in dragging others down or tattling to make life in a treatment center easier. That's bad karma, and sure enough, that same patient eventually had everyone turn on her when my friend returned there later to try to get help. When I was told I was being terminated, the caseworker's supervisor claimed that "I'm not the one" meant "I'm going to f*** you up." That is not what it means. In my context, it meant "I'm not someone you want to mess with"--a statement of boundaries, not a direct threat. But by that point, I was so over the place that I didn't even argue. I was done and ready to go. After I was kicked out, Kylie made it a point to call and inform my father, clearly hoping to make my life harder. This was especially telling because every other time my dad had called during my stay, she never returned his calls. It was obvious she was reaching out to try to create turmoil between me and my family--but it completely backfired. Instead, my dad was fully on my side and ended up chewing her out, giving her the opposite of what she was hoping for. They couldn't even relay my insurance information to the hospital, despite billing my insurance for treatment. It wasn't until I received an almost $9,000 bill and had to call to straighten it out myself that I decided to finally post this review due to their incompetence. This place is about business, not truly helping people. If they were, they would have advocated for me and made my stay more manageable. Many of the women there are cliquish, and if you're into tattling to conform to the program, you'll probably survive. But if you're unwilling to compromise your morals and values by becoming a snitch, it will be a very difficult environment. There is also clear favoritism. I will give them credit that some of the staff were genuinely cool, but the ones truly in charge were not.

I was picked up by a wonderful tech and we had a great conversation that put me at ease. I was still detoxing pretty hard, so the first week was quite a blur for me. I was so lucky to be living with an incredible group of women and we all stay connected as often as life permits. I ended up staying 6 weeks and I am glad I did because 4 weeks would not have been a long enough time to gain the tools and guidance through one on one therapy, process groups, mediation and I could go on and on. The unique part of ridgeview for me was the introduction to alternative therapies that may help through everyday life stresses. The counselors are so caring and really want you to succeed. I can't say enough great things about the staff and the people that work at corporate. I never felt alone and if I did feel anxious there was always someone there to speak with you privately immediately. Thanks Ridgeview Ranch for making this process an unforgettable experience, Michele

My father is not mobile or able to speak, making it especially challenging for staff to identify his needs. Nonetheless, I witnessed Erica take the time to address every need till he was comfortable. One can only imagine how difficult it must be not to be able to communicate with my father while tending to his needs. The PT team works excellently with my father's rehab, and honestly, without their dedication to my father's mobility, he would not have the quality of life he has right now, which is eons more than what it was at the start. Erica, you have no idea how much relief it is for me to know that someone as kind and patient as you helped my dad! I truly hope your work does not go unnoticed.
