Being a middle child growing up in a large family and always trying to take care of everyone and keep the peace in our family was no easy job but I had always read the peacemakers will inherit the earth, right. But I had put everyone's lives before my own and to do anything for myself I felt much guilt, I had lost who I was in the process. I was so depressed and couldn't figure out why. Karen told me when you are in the eye of the storm everything looks as it should, it's only when you take the step out of it that you can really see what has happened. I had put my own family on a back burner so I could take care of my mother and sisters and I tried to fill their every need. Karen is such an understanding and easy to talk to person just like her add reads, she really gets it. Don't get me wrong I cried a lot in our sessions but after each one I felt the burden lifting off me. I'm not the same person I was, I am finding my joy and I wish I could put into words how that fills. I hope this helps someone who is in the somewhat same place I was in. If I can take that step you can too.

I decided to have a bender on the way back which was a complete mistake. I only remember getting out of the car as a passenger. Things at center pointe are never consistent from one shift to another. Corporate has changed recently and personally I do not believe for the better. Without notice they said they were changing smoke breaks from 5 to 3 smoke breaks in a 24hr period. Personally I come there because they do allow smoking and 5 breaks and 2 cigs per break is doable but not ideal for most. There was so much confusion that the nursing staff tried to take us out when they could to try and cope. Does Corporate not really realize that people are withdrawing from atleast more than one substance and to throw nicotine withdrawals on top of that is really hard on someone. I mean like myself I was detoxing from prescribed opiates and benzos, alcohol and to mess with nicotine is just enough to put anyone on edge. Yes they do offer nicotine gum. But when I asked the milligrams it was like step 4 for nicoderm step 1 thru 4 starts at like 21mg for heavy smokers. But back to the overall stay. Acute units are not allowed to go to any groups off the unit or gym. They eat all the meals in the day room and not the cafeteria. So I would definitely not recommend the acute unit. The nurses and BHA's were always going above and beyond except for a couple that were just flat out rude or "just doing their jobs" id love to shout out to the ones that stood out but dont want to say how or what they did for me but they were crucial for me getting through the hell of that unit. But for small examples One particular male nurse helped to keep me calm by arm wrestling me lol when I had a BAC of .55 plus. Since i was black out drunk a code was called on me. But I truly dont remember very much at all. I remember Mohammed helping talk me down. I really wanna thank Ashley on unit 4 she was so helpful getting me off the unit and just to a detox unit where I could attend groups and atleast 1 meal in the cafeteria. Molly is the best receptionist or A/R lady hand down that they have. Im sure I showed my worst infront of her but she still said hi if she passed in the hallways. So here is my advice. Don't come in over a .08 bac, As soon as you can ask the psych and or medical doctor for the following: A lay down order so your not locked out of your room during the day stuck in very uncomfortable chairs all day. 2nd ask for an order for your personal shoes if you have feet or back injuries (no laces bring your own flip flops, 3rd ask for an order for Ensure and Gatorade (youll get 2 of each each day) 4th ask for an order for double portions as the food is 99% pretty good. If your on a unit that goes to the cafeteria for any meal your usually only offered a peanut butter and jelly for 2nds unless your the last unit for the day and they know they have leftovers. 5th DO NOT EVER TRY TO AMA They can and more usually automatically 72 to 96hr hold you and can even get a court order to hold you longer. So dont fill out those forms they will not warn you at all. Paris saved me on this I think because a code was almost called on me when they said ha ha you have to stay against your will now. Come early in the morning so you get through A/R because your time doesn't start till your on your unit. I showed approx at 330pm on a Fri but was told it was 1am before I got to the unit and my bracelet had an admitted date of Saturday. Which at the end each day feels like minutes are hours. Oh yeah the cool big A/R guy that always has nice new shoes is super nice and Kinzie is badass too. Arkansas from unit 4 was soooooo much help I cant even say. I am bad with names but the BHA that worked for agency seemed to care more than most of the BHAs thst actually worked there. 85% of the staff are awesome but those 15% that shouldn't be there or are burnt out should not be there point blank. I mean that for all departments from janitors to even higher ups. Lastly Jason is some sort of Director of nurses or equivalent and he is not someone you wanna piss off. He can be your friend or your worst enemy but he is a good guy. And last lastly Lou gives straight to the point groups. He hates to be interrupted with people raiding their hands though. There are alot of positive others too. ARKANSAS IS UP AT THE TOP OF MY LIST!!! If smoking is cut out or reduced down to the rumored 3 breaks per 24hrs i will definitely go else where. Just the small changes made already mid visit were a nightmare. It had everyone in edge that we were told that one of the activity people was running late and as she showed up 1 min before us getting to smoke instead she got brutally moaned and groaned at that she became very sad that people didnt wanna see her. She is such a great worker for center pointe. Meg-On rocks!!! Had to shorten this to 5000 characters.

I had depression, anxiety, eating issues, immaturity....probably some other things. I was generally a confused young woman and thankfully there were enough people that cared about me; so I ended up in her office(s). I saw her on-and-off through my early 20's. She helped my value myself and navigate early adulthood. She had a profound impact on my life and I think of her frequently. There is another review on here that mentions Windex and I had to laugh...I do have a vague memory of Dr. Kardasz cleaning off a glass-topped desk at the beginning of some sessions. It was never distracting and I always felt like she was listening to me. I'm pretty sure she can do at least 2 things at once. Maybe even more. Some people are like that. Thanks again, Dr. K.

Every visit, she would be 20 minutes late and then charge me for an hour when i was only with her for 40 minutes. During my last visit, she just cleaned her office the entire session, duster and windex out and everything. She was preoccupying herself and just seemed the whole time like she had better things to do than listen to me. At the end of the last visit she told me that my insurance wasn't coming through and said that I would have to call and deal with the insurance companies myself. Turns out she was on my network but my insurance wouldn't cover her. I was furious even when i thought i was paying $20 a visit. Now that I know I owe $400 I can't think of a word that describes how angry I am. I give charlespointe counseling a negative 5 stars
