What People Say...

Linda Brooks

As a family therapist who works with clients across a range of addiction presentations, I can say with confidence that the family-centred approach here is genuinely exceptional. Stimulant dependency is uniquely isolating — both for the person in treatment and the people who love them. What this team does differently is bring families into the recovery process in a meaningful, clinically informed way, helping everyone understand the neurological reality of what their loved one has been through. The family support component isn’t an afterthought here. It is woven into the treatment itself.

I won’t pretend the recovery was quick or easy — it wasn’t, for any of us. My son had been misusing Adderall since his second year of university and by the time we found this centre, we had nearly lost hope. What I can tell you is that the team here treated him like a person, not a problem. They identified that he had undiagnosed ADHD that had been driving his dependency for years — something no one had ever picked up before. That diagnosis alone changed everything. He has now been in steady recovery for fourteen months. I urge any family in the situation we were in to make the call. Please don’t wait as long as we did.

I’m no longer a residential patient but my connection with this centre didn’t end at discharge — and that has made all the difference. I still have monthly check-ins with my therapist here, and the aftercare plan they built with me before I left has been the backbone of everything. What I’m most grateful for is that they took the time to understand why I was using Adderall — not just that I was using it. The Cognitive Recovery program gave me back something I genuinely believed was gone permanently. My focus, my motivation, my ability to work without chemical support. I didn’t think that was possible. It is.

I was using Adderall every day for six years before I admitted to myself that I had a problem. By that point it wasn’t even making me perform better — it was just making me feel normal enough to get through the day. I chose this centre because they specifically understood stimulant dependency in high-pressure professional contexts, and that mattered to me. I didn’t want to be in a generic program designed for a completely different situation. The Executive track here was exactly what I needed — discreet, science-based, and focused on rebuilding real performance rather than just achieving abstinence. I am eighteen months clean and functioning at a level I haven’t reached in years. Genuinely.

My husband didn’t believe he had an addiction. He believed he had a productivity strategy that had gotten slightly out of hand. Getting him to make the first call was the hardest part. What happened after that call was remarkable — the admissions team spoke to both of us, helped him feel understood rather than judged, and within days he was in a program that finally addressed both his Adderall dependency and the ADHD that had been sitting underneath it his entire adult life. The family counselling sessions helped me understand what he had actually been experiencing, which changed the way I was able to support him completely. We are both in a different place now. A better one.

College Student, Former Client

I started taking Adderall in my sophomore year because everyone around me seemed to be doing it and I was drowning in deadlines. By junior year I couldn’t write a single sentence without it. By the time I graduated I wasn’t even sure who I was without the drug — my entire academic identity had been built around it. I found this centre through their college recovery program and honestly wasn’t sure a rehab centre would understand what it was like to be 22 and dependent on a study drug rather than something more obviously destructive. They understood completely. They assessed me for ADHD — which I had, undiagnosed, my entire life — built a recovery plan around my actual situation, and gave me the tools to rebuild my focus naturally. I’m in my first job now, eight months clean, and for the first time I can genuinely say that “College Student, Former Client”
