Drug Rehab Centers in Arlington, Massachusetts

A truly amazing place staffed with kind, caring, wonderful, professional, fun, generous, thoughtful, and highly-skilled staff (I could go on) who are experts in ED recovery. My therapist at Laurel Hill is by far the best therapist I have ever had I learned so much from her and am still in awe of how she challenged me and ED narratives. The clinical director treats clients like family and invests her time and energy into each and every one of us she spent her Christmas holiday with clients baking cookies, enjoying holiday kareoke, and other festivities that she planned for us it was a special holiday, filled with so much love and support. The nursing staff are SO cool and kind. The RCs are absolutely the best.. I don t know how they do such a specialized and demanding job and do it SO well, all while getting to become so close with the clients.I would 100% recommend this place to anyone struggling with an eating disorder. I had lost hope when I entered treatment, and now I look forward to the day when I can say I am fully recovered, because thanks to the LH team, I know that day will come.

Very strict but worth it. They do a great job I just feel they need to be a little bit more real and get off the cloud. And try to be a bit more understanding

Very nice staff while taking care of a very nice doctors well taken care of everything about the place but I respected respect to others try to help you the best they can anyway they can great place

There is no better place for obesity

I absolutely love my lady (that's what i call her to people that don't know her). She is THE TRUTH. I'm glad I got to know her and have her help me know myself again. She's the mediator for myself and my other self. Also, I really feel like we know each other on a personal level and that's the best thing about her. Its not all about me and my problems with us. She's genuine and actually wants to hear about my happiness. Truly heaven sent!

The Caspar House saved my life. I have 2 years of sobriety and the staff at the Caspar House helped me build my foundation. So grateful today.

I am the COO of a nonprofit organization that has a partnership with Pelham Academy. We use movement as therapy to help clients feel empowered, confident and strong not just physically but most importantly mentally and emotionally. I have been working with this school for almost 2 years. During my time at Pelham I have found the staff to be extremely helpful to students and myself. Together creating a safe, comfortable and supportive environment for every student to be themselves as they are.

I have a lot to say about CEDC, most of which is positive, some of which is less so simply because of its nature and the fact that it is a treatment center. I spent 3 months on the adolescent floor at CEDC and was lucky enough to have a very supportive care team and community. I remember being incredibly nervous to start at CEDC, and reading these reviews honestly just made that anxiety worse- so for whoever is reading this, whether it s for yourself or someone you love, please take a deep breath because I promise that it s going to be okay.On a positive note, the meals work really well and there are lots of options to meet dietary needs, and the diet techs are some of the loveliest people that you will ever meet. The facilities are clean and the bathroom system works very well and offers as much privacy as can be hoped for. The Resident Counselors are extremely kind and go above and beyond in the ways that they care for and interact with patients. There is also an hour of guaranteed tech time for the adolescent floor (which might not seem like a lot, but is much more than other programs allow) The tutor is also such a genuinely kind soul and made the stress of doing schoolwork from afar so much lesser <3 There is also a weekly cooking and baking group and individualized exposure therapies which can be really helpful.On the more intricate side of things, The way that the program is run allows for patients to go back to their rooms during free times which resulted in some pretty invasive behaviors being used in many of the rooms post meals. There is also not a lot of access to the outside and so it s pretty common to go weeks without getting to go outside. The RCs are a lot younger than I anticipated (which says nothing about their abilities) but they did not always have knowledge specific to the treatment of eating disorders. Family therapy is not a large part of the treatment plan either, though there are family update sessions that happen weekly.About the program itself- There are 3-4 groups per day and 3 meals and 3 snacks daily. On the weekends therapeutic groups don t happen, but there are a few things to keep busy and the RCs try really hard to make it fun. Patients get 2 passes per week which are each 2 hours that can be used to see family, and you can receive letters and packages. Also note that they check any diaries that you bring and that lots of clothes that don't cover your arms or your legs will be confiscated.All in all the program is a really receptive and supportive one and it saved my life in so many ways. I can t say that treatment was easy, but it never is, and I am beyond grateful for all the people on my team and in my community who made my experience what it was.
