I reached out to Sun County wellness as I was struggling with anxiety, anger and mesopause/change of life issues. It was the best decision I made. Stephanie has a staff of people who are kind, talented and caring. All of your needs are met and the focus on my mental health was top notch Groups are run professionally and I loved being apart of them. Your assigned a counselor and a caseworker. (Both were fantastic) I tiered from 5 days a week to 3 days to 1 They follow you through with care! I highly recommend Sun County Wellness!
Choosing Casa Recovery was truly the best decision I have ever made. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed, supported, and genuinely cared for. The staff go above and beyond in every possible way — their compassion, professionalism, and attention to detail are unmatched. They truly see each client as an individual and tailor their approach to meet your unique needs. The level of care here is exceptional. Every therapist, case manager, and support team member works together to create an environment that feels safe, encouraging, and filled with hope. The program is thoughtfully structured, balancing therapy, education, and holistic wellness in a way that promotes real, lasting change. What stood out most to me was the sense of community — not just from the staff, but from the other clients as well. Everyone is on their own journey, yet the support and understanding that flow through this place make healing feel possible and real. Casa Recovery doesn’t just help you get better — they help you rediscover yourself. I am deeply grateful for my time here and for the people who made such a positive impact on my life. If you’re considering treatment, look no further. Casa Recovery is a place of true healing, and it changed my life for the better.

I want to express my gratitude for the amazing program of ARC. A few years ago I was stuck in a major cycle of addition. I was terrified and did not even want to live anymore. My family talked me into asking for help. I tried to get help in my local area of Louisville Ky witch actually has some amazing recovery. However God had different plans. I called the addiction hotline and explained my circumstances. They found a place that could help me safely detox from the many substances I was putting in my body. They said we have your bed ready and your plane ticket booked. Fear immediately set in but I knew I could not continue on my path of distruction so I got on the plane. When I arrived in California I was taken under the wings of the amazing staff at ARC. I was met with compassion and care on a level that completely changed the course of my life forever. They showed me how to be sober one day at a time. We laughed together, cried together and I developed friendships that I still have today. When I was early in recovery my emotions were so strong. My therapist Jenn spent all the extra time with me that I needed. The staff met me where I was at and supported my journey every step of the way. The thing I miss the most besideds the very extravant home I was staying in was the programing, we did our classes and learned about adiction, but they also promoted healing with yoga, meditation, sound baths, harp players, you name it. They would take us on outings and show us that sober can be fun too. The 75 days spent in the ARC Program was a truly spiritual experience. After coming back home to Kentucky I was armed with the facts about my disease and a plan that they helped me set up for success. The biggest thing is though that even though I completed the program ARC still keeps in touch with me to see how im doing. I talk to Casey frequently and let her know what my life looks like as the result of what they are doing at ARC to change peoples lives. My Thank you could never be great enough for the amount of gratitude I have for this program. #800DAYSCALIRECOVERYARCSTRONG

Amazing program. I felt safe and at home with their wonderful staff and clinicians. The clinician, David, is very skilled at what he does and the best therapist I have worked with. David and Rupa truly saved my life. I am beyond thankful for the team at California Care for taking care of me and finally giving me the help I hadn’t been able to receive in the other treatment centers I’ve been to.
