BNI, first of all, was able to guide me through my insurance plans to help me get my son to them without all of the financial burden. Since it was not our first time going down this road that was amazing in itself. Once our son arrived, he was treated with such respect and dignity. The Therapists, Councilors, Psychologists, Psychiatrists, Pharmacists (and more) are such an amazing team. My son is definitely facing challenges still as he received a fairly tough diagnosis. Now we know it is there and we can deal with it. Without BNI we would have been left with a kid who was fighting an un-named opponent. BNI saved my sons life as far as I am concerned. Last, they made sure we had a plan when we came hope. We were set up with a IOP, and specialty care options for his specific challenges. Amazing team. Definitely life changing!

I was in true despair and was ready to throw it all away, everything I had worked so hard for, all of it, it was horrible. By chance we found this facility and it was exactly what I needed. I was ready and willing to do whatever it took to get myself back in order and La Ventana gave me the tools that are necessary to make that happen. The staff treated me like family and everyone on board is passionate about what they do. I was given the structure and encouragement I needed, they were patient with me and let me be myself. They absolutely went above and beyond for me and my family and I will be forever grateful to them. I'm so glad we found this facility and my new extended family. Thank you EVERYONE at La Ventana, we got this!!!

When our son arrived at Oak Forest, we were scared, exhausted, and unsure of what the future would look like. From the very beginning, the staff made us feel like we weren't alone. They treated our son with kindness, patience, and respect, while also holding him accountable in the ways he needed. What impressed us most was how experienced and knowledgeable everyone was. You could tell they genuinely cared about the every client and weren't just doing a job. Throughout his time there, communication with our family was excellent. The team took the time to answer questions, provide updates, and help us understand what our son was going through. We always felt calm and that he was in good hands. No program can magically fix everything, but Oak Forest gave our son a foundation to build on and gave our family hope during a very difficult time. We are incredibly grateful to the staff for the care they showed him and for the support they gave us as parents. And still give as we go to support meetings that they offer for free. I am eternally grateful to Oak Forest for the chance they have given us as a family. I would not hesitate to recommend Oak Forest to anyone who is looking for recovery that works. I am sober myself and this team genuinely understands recovery and what it takes to combat addiction.

The therapists and group leaders there really tie everything in together. The Bonfire is the best meeting west of LA! Proudly sober since 08/18/2024.

It was 5 months after discharge for all the insurance claims to be properly submitted (two claims needed to be resubmitted multiple times) and our refund processed.

She was given many diagnosis's over the years and put on many different medications. Nothing was helping. We sought the help of Dr. Mohammond who was referred by another LA doctor. He came back with a completely different diagnosis from all the other doctors, He suggested we take her off of all the medications and switch her to one other kind. Well, it's been nothing short of a miracle. She has been thriving. She is now in her 2nd year of college and we as parents could not be more grateful. She continues to see him monthly and loves his funny, caring bedside manner. If you or a loved one has been mis-diagnosed, or are just looking for a great doctor who specializes in mental health, I highly suggest setting up an appointment. Thank you Dr M for giving us our child back.

After dealing with a particularly stressful time in life I had the great fortune of participating…read morein an outpatient program at CLEAR and found myself being supported in ways I didn't know I needed. Even from the initial intake process with Keefer where he immediately disarmed me with his kindness and gentle humor while hearing me talk about difficult stuff I was facing, I felt that I was not being "subjected" to this program, but that I was an active participant in defining the kind of support I needed. They have offerings for residential and full-time support, I needed a part-time level of care that was a few hours daily for 3 days a week, and that was just the right amount of space I needed to rest and recover from my stress so I was happy to sign up for that schedule. Three weeks later and I have made friends with other participants, many of which who like me are simply struggling to handle stress in daily life. Together we are learning major psychological concepts (in simple language) and countless tools that are helping us to understand our responses to stress and navigate our respective inner worlds and physical bodies to improve them, steadily. All the individuals providing care or supporting the participants are so amazing. Literally everyone is so sweet and also unexpectedly super cool, young and hip!? I didn't know a place like this existed and unfortunately I had to reach a point of feeling totally lost before I could seek out the help offered here. Well now I thank my lucky stars for that little "breakdown" because it was just what it took for me, personally, to seek out the support I never knew I needed.

I discharged from Clearview Treatment Center's Dual Diagnosis program on 10/10/2025. The experience…read morewas difficult but ultimately helpful--I needed stabilization after a month-long marijuana relapse and acute depression. Therapist-led groups were supportive, though tech-led groups were less effective. I learned a lot about advocating for myself, which I had to do often. My first month was marked by severe marijuana withdrawal: intense emotional swings, dysphoria, anger, sleep problems, nausea, and digestive issues. Staff and the nurse practitioner never acknowledged that I was in withdrawal, which made the experience much more distressing. During one crisis week, despite expressing suicidal ideation, I received minimal support outside a brief therapist session. I requested non-12 Step recovery meetings due to trauma, and while initially approved, chronic understaffing meant I was required to attend 12 Step meetings with the group. The required 1:6 staffing ratio was rarely met. This left high-needs clients without proper supervision, and at times clients were informally monitoring someone who clearly needed a higher level of care. Case management was also strained. Only one case manager served all five houses, leading to repeated paperwork delays and mistakes. Limited phone access made managing essential tasks difficult without more support. Accessibility was another issue. I disclosed mobility limitations before admission, but the facility had far more stairs than described, including at off-site meetings. Only after persistent advocacy were accessible options provided near the end of my stay. Food was challenging as a diabetic. Meals were often too carb-heavy, breakfast options were minimal, and the only accommodation offered was frozen frittatas. I ultimately purchased my own food. Overall, Clearview provided some meaningful therapeutic support, but significant issues with staffing, accessibility, crisis response, withdrawal education, and individualized needs remain. I stabilized largely because of my prior long-term sobriety, but I worry about clients newer to recovery who received far less support.
