Drug Rehab Centers in District Heights, Maryland

Joanne was excellent when doing my foot bath. She was knowledgeable about what was coming from my body. She is wonderful for my healing journey.

Urban Counseling Institute is a great choice! The counselors are not only highly skilled but also compassionate and dedicated to helping clients achieve lasting recovery.

I highly advise against this location. The culture here involves forcing the staff's ideas and narratives onto the children and parents. The staff are very self-absorbed and treat parents with disdain, acting superior to everyone. It feels like the parents are there to serve the staff, not the other way around.There is no consideration for working parents you are expected to be at their office when they tell you. When you show up for scheduled therapy appointments, it s not uncommon to wait 15-20 minutes for the therapist, reinforcing the idea that you and your time are less important than the staff.At no time did it feel like a team environment (staff and parents working together). Instead, it was the staff speaking at the parents, with a heavy bias to keep the child in the program as long as possible.The program operates on a four-week cycle, so if you are there in week 5, you repeat the activities from week one. My child became agitated with the repetition, wanting to cover new topics they hadn't already made significant progress on. This became another point of contention with the therapist, who seemed focused only on keeping my child as long as insurance allowed.The doctor on staff is based out of New York and spends a virtual 5-15 minutes with the child, rapidly prescribing medications.In the end, it got so ridiculous that the therapist told my child that if she left the program early, she wouldn't get a graduation party. It was almost like they were playing a game of chicken with us. My child saw it for what it was and decided not to return.In summary, I highly recommend against this Embark location.
