Best rehab place in Chicago they accepted my uncle after leaving and given them a hard time they welcomed him again for another chance

Professional People

Nancy was such a great person in the call center nice very palient and very helpful ty Nancy.

Idk why the rating is so low. They actually care and want to help. They will do their utmost to help you get on your feet. Theresa, Ray, Darryl, David, and everyone else there is so compassionate and Nice. Idk what they get paid but it s not enough; frfr.

Under the circumstances this place was great , really worked with me to get me done with the class A.S.AP and Ferlando was very informative of what to expect during and after the program .

Stayed there 2 years ago. Great staff,and facility. Stayed sober 2 years. Till my next relapse. No reflection on them .

I am 62 years old and not accustomed to posting reviews but I feel it is important to post my personal experience with the Group Home. I lived at the Group Home beginning June 11, 2019 and stayed for approximately 3 months. I had been diagnosed with Bipolar I Disorder at Crisis Care Prevention (part of the Lake County Health Department) and was homeless at the time. Given my age, I had lived most of my life with an undiagnosed mental illness and was grateful that there was finally a name, and more importantly, treatment for what was wrong with Vicki . At the Group Home I learned countless skills, even very simple skills such as attaining and maintaining structure in my day to day life. I had a bedtime and learned that it was important to wind down before going to sleep and I awoke at approximately the same time every morning. Gone are the days of staying up (and sel-medicating) all night long. I began my days rested and willing to learn and grow. Our counselor s lead groups that are designed to guide you to be active in, and responsible for, your own recovery They also also presented and endless supply of coping skills/tools to help me manage my mental illness. Furthermore, these skills are presented in such a way that I finally understood the importance and concepts of what coping skills actually are and how much they can help me. I had responsibilities such as chores within the Group Home, I had peers, people similar to me, and found that this was a place that I fit in. I learned patience and acceptance and I learned, at the age of 59, how to be a valued member of my community, no matter what community I am living in. I was also introduced to the New Hope Recovery Center in Zion and Waukegan (or drop in center ) where I continue to work my program of recovery and continue to be active within this community to this day. Nearly 3 years ago my life almost ended. I had hit the worst bottom in my life and had no hope for anything good. Getting a diagnosis, taking my medication, being teachable, living and learning in the group home, and going to the drop in center have all been instrumental as far as me being equipped with the necessary skills and tools I use every day to live my best life. In these past 3 years, I have been living a full life, a life filled with joy, hope and the possibility of a bright future. I recommend the Group Home for anyone in need and cannot say enough good about my experience there and how it changed my life in so many positive ways. I now live on my own but have a strong connection to all the people who continue to empower me to continue on my journey of recovery.

Brittany has been so helpful to me since I started seeing her, and she's someone you can laugh and smile with, but she knows when to be unpack important topics. She's ready to hear about day to day life or deeper issues, but either way it's time well spent and I always appreciate each session. I can tell she genuinely cares about people and has been helping me grow as a person, so if that's something you're looking for I would 100% recommend her!!!

Brightside saved my life. Their entire staff makes me feel so comfortable and they are completely nonjudgmental, but also very professional. Dr. Kushner is the absolute best!! so down to earth and easy to talk to. I trust him more than any other doctor I've seen. He has helped me and my family immensely.Thank you Dr. Kushner and Brightside!!!!

What can I say this place has been a safe haven and to me and my family and the community for years
