The facility itself is very cute, for lack of a better word. It's unassuming from the outside, but…read morelooks almost like an old Spanish-colonial style house in the main house with a kitchen area for patients and a koi pond in the outside sitting area. In terms of care, I really enjoyed being a patient here. This was my first experience as a patient in PHP/IOP. I was a patient for three months, dealing with mental disorder that impaired my functioning in work, school, social life, and self-care. You are assigned an individual therapist to meet with weekly and/or a case manager. You can request to switch individual therapists if you don't feel a good enough rapport between yourself and your assigned therapist. The group therapy schedule is pretty static week to week, but there is almost always a choice between two groups, so you have some ability to "customize" your schedule. I didn't enjoy all facilitators, but I enjoyed most and learned a lot about how to manage and process my emotions/thoughts/behaviors/traumas. The psychiatric team put me on the first medication combination in my life that really worked for my specific set of symptoms. They are courteous and attentive. They remember even non-clinical details about me when we meet weekly. Mission Harbor is also much more affordable (in my opinion) than other centers offering similar care. I paid my insurance's deductible--with which Mission Harbor provided flexibility due to my personal financial hardship--and the team was diligent with handling my disability insurance claim in a timely manner. I would recommend Mission Harbor to anyone looking to seriously challenge their mental disorders and carve a path to a better way of living and thinking! I would even readmit if I felt I needed the care and support again.

From the owners to the clinical team and everyone else in between, Alo House is filled with a staff that has the expertise to provide care that leads to long term recovery. Compassion and a non-judgmental approach was how I was able to work through issues that we're once destroying my life. I owe a lot to this amazing program and I would recommend Alo House to anyone who is struggling.

At a time in my life when I felt very isolated, judged and misunderstood, Reza made me feel safe and heard. I have been to many treatment facilities and worked with as many if not more therapists. As I approach 10 years of recovery and reflect back on the journey, Reza stands out as someone who made a lasting and influential impact. The coping skills and insights he shared, as well as his unwavering and sympathetic support are big reasons I have been able to change my life and experience success in recovery. Thank you Reza!

Thrive treatment changed my life. A year ago I was at my lowest and only a shell of the person I…read moreonce was. I had lost hope and was terrified that the rest of my life I would be stuck in my addiction loop of trying to stop but never being able to do it on my own. Once I arrived at Thrive I knew within the first couple weeks that this place was special. The staff were kind and helpful. I didn't feel like just another number. I felt like everyone genuinely wanted me to be included and most importantly wanted me to succeed. It's scary to put your life "on hold" and your sobriety first, but all of the goals I set for myself in that first month , I have reached in the past year! And on May 24th reached my one year sober! Which is mind blowing Thrive showed me how to live life sober and enjoy it. They showed me how to be a good daughter, a sister, and a friend. They showed me how to look within and work through the shame I was carrying with me and come out on the other side I can truly say Thrive changed my life for the better and if you're on the fence about sobriety give this place a chance. After 20+ years in active addiction I thought I was a lost cause but they helped me build myself back up and gave me the template to build my life backup . I now have a life i can wake up and be excited for and most importantly I am proud of myself

After having a family member reside at this facility, I would like to respectfully share some…read moreconcerns regarding our experience. While we appreciate the efforts of the staff and recognize the challenges involved in providing care and support, we encountered ongoing difficulties with communication throughout our family member's stay. Communication with the assigned case manager was often limited, and requests for updates regarding our loved one's progress and well-being were not always acknowledged or addressed in a timely manner. As family members, we relied on these updates to remain informed and reassured. The lack of consistent communication frequently left us uncertain about his status and concerned for his overall well-being. In addition, maintaining direct contact with our family member proved challenging at times. Multiple attempts were made to obtain information and establish communication, but responses were often delayed or unavailable. This created unnecessary stress and uncertainty for those of us who were actively involved in supporting his care and recovery. We also received feedback from our family member, as well as observations shared by other residents, indicating that some interactions with case management staff could have benefited from greater patience, attentiveness, and responsiveness. While we understand that staff members manage significant responsibilities, respectful and compassionate communication plays a critical role in fostering trust and supporting residents effectively. Equally important is the partnership between a facility and a resident's family. Families are often the primary source of emotional support, advocacy, and continuity of care for their loved ones. Maintaining open communication and working collaboratively with family members helps ensure the best possible outcomes for residents and strengthens the support system that contributes to their success. Family involvement should be viewed as an essential component of the care process rather than an afterthought. These comments are offered respectfully and constructively, with the hope that they may assist in enhancing communication practices, strengthening family engagement, and improving the overall experience for both residents and their loved ones.

Everyone there was very nice and made my friend and I feel right at home. It's on the second floor above the Fresh Corn Grill so it wasn't too hard to find. As we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly pup. We removed our shoes as everyone else had, and entered the main room. There was plenty of tasty breakfast goodies to snack on as folks introduced themselves. The space was clean and smelled of sage which felt rejuvenating. We met the owner, Cory, who invited us to a sound bath session. Some of the folks sitting at the tables let us know to bring tissues... I was not expecting to need them and did not wear waterproof mascara that day, I still grabbed the tissues and went on. The sound bath room was equipped with comfy pillow like seats on the ground. The room had acoustics that transformed me into state where I felt like my seated body was one with the music. As the sounds continued I felt a deep connection with myself that I could not describe, which made me glad I listened and grabbed those tissues. I am thankful for Cory and the staff here, that sound bath was the best thing that's happened to me all year. It was better than any meditation or reiki session out there. I cannot thank you all enough. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health or addiction and in need of help unlocking those feelings to unblock your spirit, this is the place for you. Cory and team will help you find the version of yourself you've been looking for and help you release any feelings that may have been constipating your soul.
