My daughter lived here for a year after having been in and out of multiple psych facilities the…read moreentire year prior. It was the only place that actually helped us. Tiffany was our family counselor and she was absolutely amazing. Experienced, savvy, patient. We really needed that. The weekly virtual parent groups weren't just about commiserating, like so many other facilities who don't quite know how to help parents. They were informative and helpful, led by Jenn who is also wonderful. Elevations has a strong focus on the entire family, not just the kid and that's really the key. We aren't sending our kids away because they are "bad", the whole family system needs a reset and it is just as much the parents' responsibility to grow and change as it is our kids. Any parent who thinks their kid's behavior is solely their doing and problem is a big part of the problem. The parent retreats were WONDERFUL! I participated in every one of them. It's such a difficult decision to put your child in treatment and it is not an easy thing to go through. However, I want anyone reading this to know that there is hope on the other side of you ALL put in the work and if you have the right help. We found Elevations through an educational consultant, which I HIGHLY recommend getting. As parents, we're navigating blindly in a crisis state and need help. If you've found Elevations though, lucky you! This is a good place. I spoke to many other parents going through the program who'd wished they'd found this place first. Thank you, Elevations.

In particular the therapists Britten and AnnMarie were completely amazing with her and demonstrated belief in her even when she was at her worst. They brought her back to the land of the living with care and love and hopefully she will progress from here. The cost is extraordinarly frightening and difficult and it's so hard to send your child to such an intensive treatment center, but Viewpoint was very worth it for us. -- Father of a 16 year old patient during July of 2022

these people take down all of the one star reviews i've left plenty. i want to truly warn parents…read morebefore sending there kids here, im over 18 now and its been a long time since i went here but i am still absolutely traumatized from the experiences i've witnessed in this place. i have nightmares frequently and can still hear the screams echoing the halls. this place is not like any mental hospital i've been to, it is seriously like an asylum. the staff treats the kids poorly and will drag them to the "time out room" which is a concrete room with nothing in it, the theripist's don't help, and the kids there are far worse then just mentally unstable. we went out on a outing to a store and a patient was able to sneak back a entire knife from the store in her bra, i remember her showing me and letting me hold it, i cant put into words the amount of terror i had in that moment and how scared i was of the wrong person getting that in their hands. the staff will curse you out, it truly feels like a prison. do not go here

First I'll start off with, I was legally kidnapped and spent 16 hours in a van driving to this…read morefacility. Where I was threatened to be handcuffed to the car seat if I did not cooperate. Second off, this facility does NOT check belongings. At least when I went they sure didn't. I had over 100 razor blades in my belongings. They simply opened my suitcase, looked, and said "you're good". I had cut my leg open once. Needing stitches. I was then refused medical attention, I even gave my 1:1 sitter the razor blade and she scoffed and laughed at the wound. I only received medical attention and stitches after I cut my leg open a second time, even deeper this time. You'd think after doing this they'd search the room, belongings, everything, well they did. And did extremely poorly at that. I was so desperate to escape this facility I had swallowed 4 razor blades that they did not confiscated in order to leave. Mind you, I was still on a 1:1 sitter, meaning a staff member watched me swallow a razor blade. He didn't report it either until I went to nursing and told them I had swallowed razors. And even then they scoffed and chuckled at the idea. It's funny how they claim to accommodate disabilities, yet forced me to write as a communication method. I have mutism. I cannot speak. I was PROMISED I'd be allowed a communication device (a device I can text to speak on). When I arrived they took my speaking device away, and gave me a white board, that they would take anytime I "spoke poorly". Aka quite literally taking away my ability to communicate. They illegally denied my task trained service dog to come with me. Yet allow staff to bring their untrained pet dogs to this facility, who on my first day there, got in a huge fight in the middle of the corridors. I came out of this facility more traumatized, more "broken" than when I went in. I fully realized no one gives a fuck, and these people do anything in their power to get money by preying on families desperate for help. You will destroy your child by sending them here. I literally would rather of died, a horrific painful death. Then of spent another minute at this facility. I am absolutely disgusted this place has remained open for so long. If you are knowingly sending your child here, I PRAY they never have contact with you again. This place is so ungodly abusive it's not even funny.

I went here about three years back and looking through my journey from boarding school to boarding…read moreschool, Aspen was one of my favorite places to be. Sure it's just a temporary home while they try to figure out where the best place to send you is, but the staff were all super kind and caring. I don't think there was one time when one of the staff wouldn't sit and join us in a game of Monopoly or try to help us out when we needed it. Don't get me wrong, they're not total push overs and the rules are enforced here but Aspen really worked with me and tried to make my stay seem less torturous compared to where I had been before. I remember my counselor, Lexi, she was amazing and I could not have felt anymore comfortable when talking to her, and I was able to send letters frequently between my parents and I. I'm not all for sending your child to boarding schools (it is traumatizing, but I also understand that sometimes it is necessary if the parent does not have the right tools to help their child anymore), but if you don't know what to do or what steps to take I would certainly recommend Aspen as a temporary placement. Your child will be confused and probably hurt but they will be talked through everything with the counselor, treated WELL by the staff, given privileges to play in the gym and outside, given opportunities to earn more games or playtime, and my main thing is that your child will just be treated well. It's hard for a kid to be sent away and Aspen makes them feel welcome. And I guess a huge point is that my counselor was able to find a terrific school to send me to that fit my parents budget. Ok! I think I've written enough, if you have any questions feel free to message me(:
