I was in absolute disarray when I arrived. My medications were out of whack and I was severely depressed from underlying trauma. Between the EMDR treatments and the amazing daily therapy I received, I feel hope for the first time in a long time. I will be forever grateful to the incredible therapists and staff at Amend Treatment. Thank you!

I was the most peaceful I have been in 30 years! It was incredible to learn so much about myself as I just talked and shared in the safety of the loving, caring therapists who all differed. Each one helped me see my strengths and weaknesses and gave me the tools I needed to get my strength and love for myself back! The food was beyond amazing and the outings a pure joy! I miss my comfy bed and the sound baths and truly everything Amend has to offer!

Upon driving through the gates you simply exhale the stresses of the day. Your nervous system unwinds a little. The property is a sanctuary and the facility feels like a welcoming home. Every detail has been attended to from lush blankets to curl up under next to a fireplace to warm slippers for cooler days. You're enveloped in thoughtfulness making the healing work inviting. The staff are equally warm and welcoming, and feel like a safe harbor to rest in from a storm. It should also be noted that the chefs are superb!

The Amend team let us know exactly what to expect and the entire process was seamless start to finish. The house was gorgeous and was the perfect setting to focus on healing and recovery.
