Drug Rehab Centers in Reading, Pennsylvania

Great people providing great service to our Veterans!!!

I had 15 sessions with Ana. She really knows what she is doing. She gave me some exercises I could use when my anxiety starts getting really bad. I am so happy to say that they really work. There was an problem someone else was having and it escalated where this man was yelling at the admin team. It made me feel so uncomfortable and they had no security. The one security guy that was working down stairs clearly wouldnt have been able to help. I hope they fix that issue.

(This is a long one) I ve had my fair share of therapists before and each time it was a crash and burn situation. It never worked out for me, I always felt like it was too much. I pushed it off until it smacked me in the face. I can genuinely say EVERY SINGLE STAFF MEMBER DOWN TO THE RECEPTIONISTS ( especially Kaela, dr. Nelson, Greg & Nicole for me) welcomed me with opened arms at a time I needed it most. I never not once felt judged nor put down. I was held accountable each step of the way and able to express myself. Each one of them taught me a lot about my triggers, my attachment styles, my anger, the work I had to put in on my self and just the really understanding and loving the overall person I am. They taught me to identify why I was using bad habits to cope with my feelings.I really don t have the words to explain how much they have helped me. If so I would be here all day. Let me try to sum it up.I had never been to therapy long term(some therapists just wouldn t call back). I had never been on medication for my mental health(I would gas light myself and create bad habits to cope). I was in therapy for about a year and a half with kaela, Greg and dr Nelson. Some days I wish I had never left(I moved out the state). Dr. Nelson always listened to me, he helped me understand what was going on mentally. During my time he worked with me to find medications that helped me function daily. It wasn t easy but he never gave up and he never pushed me to take anything I didn t like or want to be on. Greg helped me to look within. He taught me not to bottle up my emotions and how to express what I m feeling in a better way than I was. I have to give my props to Kaela for dealing with me the longest tho. Instantly I clicked with her. She really sets the bar high when it comes to a therapist for me. She listened to me yap on and on and she didn t make me feel like I was a burden with my weekly visits. I actually looked forward to going to my visits.. even when I went back on my word. She didn t make me feel ashamed of myself(No one there did) She always remembered everything, even when I didn t. She made me hold myself accountable for my actions, as she did also. I loved that about her most. She didn t let me slip. She helped me realize why I was doing certain things or why I was reacting the way I would and what they could ve stemmed from. Other therapists didn t do what they did for me mentally, even spiritually. Everyone at Caron is like a family to me at this point. I recommend everyone to come to Caron. All my friends, family, strangers. They made me realize therapy and asking for help wasn t bad after all. If you needed a sign. This is it.

Very good!

I studied for my CRS certification through COCA. I can not say enough amazing things about the Rise center, COCA, PRO-A , TASC and SAMHSA, it is an amazing place to grow, learn, connect, network and advocate with. I am so blessed to have COCA as a huge part of my life.

My therapist here, Ben, has been very supportive & helpful. I was hesitant to have a male therapist but they were pushy about me seeing him as he was the only one available & I am so happy that I conceded. He is great!

Dr. Jenkins @ DGR has been my Dr for years. He has always been kind, caring and responsive.

I've been extremely impressed and grateful for this VA system. Especially compared to previous VA, it is phenomenal. Communication, administration, and personnel especially are genuinely caring and help. They have a lot that they do in house, and do it well, and they are established so when community care arises I've found they know specialists in the area as well as have a great Community Care team (wait times from referral to just scheduling an appointment at other VA's was MONTHS, vs. here the communication is great).I have also had to use the ER and found them great too. I scratched my eye, called the nurse hotline who told me to go for antibiotics. I did and it was pleasant, and the next day I had the follow up eye appointment at a nearby VA clinic! That's fantastic communication, and overall the way the Lebanon VA system functions is top notch, and most personnel there are the same!

Great place to get some structure during recovery!
