Because of this, my parents were able to learn more about my addictions to drugs and alcohol as well as their literal addiction to wanting to help me. They learned what the difference between helping and enabling meant. Through individual, group and family therapy I was able to work on the various underlying traumas and codependency issues. One of the biggest things I learned here was the true meaning of integrity, which I make sure I integrate into my life everyday. My family and I will be forever grateful for this place!

I had only been to a treatment center once before in 2019 for only one month, thinking that would do it, but I wasn't even introduced to the 12 steps, which have become transformative for me now with my sponsor who is an alumni of TLC. I stayed at TLC for 9 months and learned a lot. The most impactful aspect of the center for me was the weekly family nights, where I got to finally address issues with my family that barely went addressed before. Siamak was very knowledgeable about the disease of addiction and was culturally attuned especially to the Persian culture, where addiction and mental health can often be stigmatized. The staff was friendly and effective from the counselors to Siamak's family who were involved in the program with their unique offerings. I'll never forget this place and the people I crossed paths with here.

I was on a path of self-destruction and was able to right myself towards a path of recovery wholly due to the care, compassion, counseling, therapy, and education imparted by the Lighthouse Leadership Team and Staff. This is a truly an exceptional program focused on a holistic approach to rehabilitation and recovery. All facets crucial to a healthy and successful launch to recovery are carefully addressed, focused on restoring physical, mental, and emotional states of well-being. Physical health is carefully monitored and medical needs are addressed and met by a competent and compassionate medical team. In addition to 24 hour access to snacks and beverages, nutritional needs are met by an outstanding kitchen staff, where healthy, well-balanced, freshly prepared and delicious meals are provided three times a day. Psychological education essential to the recovery process is imparted by well-trained and empathetic personnel whose compassion and dedication is readily apparent from day one. Both a licensed counselor and therapist are personally assigned to each client for one-on-one weekly meetings, who also have an open door policy to effectively address any needs related to your treatment progress. The facility itself is clean, peaceful, and well-maintained, providing comfortable accommodations and an overall environment conducive to a smooth and successful recovery. It is important to emphasize how critical and effective the Lighthouse Staff and Team were in launching me to an overall state of well-being, where the daily encountered challenges of life we are overcome with understanding, patience and compassion. These are the attributes I encountered from the staff during my treatment at the Lighthouse and I am proud to be an alumnus to carry on this tradition of a program that ultimately saved my life and paved the way for a happy and healthy future. I apologize in advance if I miss (or mispell) any names who were instrumental in my recovery and to whom I would like to express my deep gratitude: - Carlos : whose outstanding care and efficiency in the admission process went above and beyond expectations and who continues to perform at an extraordinary level as shown by his responsiveness to recent client admissions - Teresa : for the strong, inspirational and compassionate leadership which naturally commands respect and gratitude, ultimately resulting in the implementation of a successful treatment program - Jessica and Sochi : who warmly welcomed me to the program on day one - Delia and Eunice : who diligently and effectively addressed any medical needs with warmth and compassion - LaDonna, Julie, Stephanie, Paula and Linda : who always met me with a genuine smile and heartfelt interest in my well-being, as well as words of wisdom and support - Austin, Alfonso and Joey: whose sincere commitment to our recovery was expressed through interactions in the med room and leadership at group meetings - Jorge, Noah, Kay, Will and Robert: who provided moral support and fearlessly transported us to the gym, Walmart, outside meetings and critical appointments - Steve : who, with a beaming smile, effectively set-up needed outside appointments and transportation - Yesenia, Sonia, Lulu, Spencer, Sarah and Mario: whose heartfelt love and care was manifested in the scrumptious meals they so carefully prepared for us - Dana and Cup of Joe : whose attention and dedication to facility maintenance needs was readily apparent (and Joe's) deliciously strong coffee turbocharged our energy levels during treatment - Johnny : whose Psych Education classes were instrumental in reframing thought processes and were executed with the perfect balance of laughter and seriousness - Marlene : my well-respected therapist who so expertly and compassionately guided me to a path of psychological recovery - Candice : my counselor who is loved by all and has an impactful positive effect on those she guides Thank you to all the Lighthouse Staff all for your love and support.

Being my first time in treatment, I didn't know what to expect or what I had committed myself to but, Lighthouse was there for me every step of the way. From detox to completion of treatment, I received nothing but love, support and respect being as broken as I was. They treated me with compassion, understanding and operated within God's grace while taking care of me every step of the way. Through their help and programming, I was able to not just rehabilitate my health. They helped to rehabilitate my mind. They were able to do for me in 3 months what I was incapable of doing for myself. Because of Lighthouse, I have my life back. My marriage is back on track, my kids have their father back but most importantly I restored my relationship with God during my stay. I couldn't have done this without their help or support. I was failing on my own. Lighthouse made it so that I was able to focus on healing myself from the inside out. Thank you so much for church, gym, yoga, offsite meetings and all the extras like game night and movie night. It was the first time I had done (or was able to do) any of those things sober in YEARS. Thank you so much for the clinical groups, motivational speakers and panels. It opened my eyes to a difference in perspective and understanding when it came to addiction and how much people need to be loved. Truly humbling. A special thank you to Tyler and Teresa for doing such a great job at the facility. Between staff and taking a look around, it really does show how much they care about what they do. Thank you to everyone at intake, the front office and administration. With all your patience and calm demeanors, you make it look easy. Shout out to kitchen staff for all their hard work and making sure everyone there was always well fed (miss the food for sure). Taco Tuesdays were the best! Thank you to the nurses and doctors. You always made sure we had what we needed when we needed it. When it comes to staff, it's extremely difficult for me to pick favorites. They are ALL great. It's apparent that going above and beyond is their standard mode of operation. With that being said... Special thanks to: *Candice. The most bad a$$, straight forward, sweetest person I've ever met. Thank you for your honesty, positivity, caring and being straightforward about everything. *Edmund. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge and wisdom when it came to the reality of dealing with real life circumstances. *Mike! FAFO, don't be late! Thank you for the discipline you incorporated into the program and showing how much you cared that we all succeeded. *Austin. Thank you for being so down to earth and taking the awkwardness out of being honest about addiction. I'll never forget the game "In My Addiction." It shined new light on how I wasn't alone in the struggle and helped me to be more open about myself. *Alfonso. Thank you so much for having those real, heart to heart conversations with myself and the group, sharing how the dynamics of our behavior shapes our habits which influences our lives (no loitering!). *Joey. Thank you for all your encouraging, compassionate declamations amongst the groups showing kindness is alive and well. *Rob. Thank you for your constant, positively radiant attitude and the diligence you incorporate into all you do. *Kaylee. Honestly, thanks for being awesome with everything and everyone. *Liz. Sooooo good. Thank you for educating me on my blood pressure and the importance of the numbers and what they signify. Your energy was always fun to be around. *Ronnie. Thank you for always trying to help a brotha' out. *Timmy. Thank you for your patience with me while making sure I was taken care of in detox. *Paddy. Thank you so much for your sweet, caring demeanor and the encouragement you gave me in detox. Lighthouse was truly my home away from home. Their hearts are in everything they do.

And another wonderful aspect is that they have a wonderful alumni group of people that get together every last Monday of every month to celebrate all the people that have gone through their program, and they offer super fun activities, so we all can stay connected and thrive in our recovery.

Review for AKUA Mind, Body, and Soul - Newport Beach…read more I am writing this review to warn other families about the extremely unprofessional and dangerous way my son was treated by AKUA Mind, Body, and Soul. My son was scheduled to be admitted to this facility. I informed AKUA ahead of time that he was heavily intoxicated. Despite this, they arranged for him to be picked up by Uber and transported to their facility. I personally spoke with the admissions/front desk staff, who reassured me that this was something they were trained for and that everything would be fine. I was later called and told that he had arrived and was admitted. Approximately 4-5 hours later, close to midnight, I received a call from my son. He was confused, disoriented, aggressive, and did not know where he was. He told me he was somewhere in Newport Beach near a hospital. I immediately contacted the hospital. The head nurse informed me they had found my son asleep in the hospital parking lot, without identification, with no information about why he was there, and no report from any facility. They had no idea who he was or how he got there. What I later learned is that AKUA decided his blood alcohol level was too high to accept him. However: * No one called me to inform me of this decision * There was no professional medical handoff * No one from AKUA escorted him inside the emergency room * The hospital was not notified why a confused, intoxicated person was left in their parking lot He was effectively dumped outside, in an unfamiliar area, in a medical emergency state, without identification. To make matters worse, I later spoke with a supervisor at AKUA who confirmed that they had my son's wallet, containing all of his vital information. I asked for it to be shipped to me. I have called multiple times since then. No one has returned my calls, no wallet has been sent, and no one has told me what other belongings they are holding. This is not just poor communication -- this is a serious safety failure. When a facility accepts someone, even briefly, they have a responsibility to ensure that person is left in a safe, supervised environment, especially when alcohol intoxication is involved and death is a real risk. I am disgusted by how my son was treated and by the complete lack of accountability afterward. I cannot believe this occurred at a facility that presents itself as professional and reputable. Families trust rehab centers with their loved ones' lives. AKUA failed that trust completely.
