My experience with Horizon Recovery has been top notch! I can text or call anyone on my daughters care team nearly 24/7 and get an immediate response. You just can’t ask for more than that. I can’t say enough good things about Horizon Recovery.

My son has been to many different programs, and I can say with extreme pleasure that Horizon Recovery is a special program. When they tell you they are going to do something it is NOT lip service. They do it. From the first day to after the last it has felt like being a part of a family.

If you find yourself needing this type of resource for a child of yours, I beg of you to look no further. The staff, Horizon’s programs and resources that this facility uses is number one. Its a scary thing to leave your child somewhere with strangers, but I promise you this is the safest place for them.

In a time of high stress, Horizon Recovery provided our family safe, comfortable, and kind support. We are so grateful for every member of the team – knowledgeable, caring, firm, and positive. Thank you, Horizon Recovery.

This place is the first place that did everything they said they would! It was thee only place my child thrived at their program and groups and therapy are among the best! I HIGHLY Recommend Horizon Recovery!!!

Horizon Recovery has truly been our saving grace, a beacon of hope during our darkest hour. When our family was engulfed in crisis, the team at Horizon Recovery emerged as a guardian angel, tirelessly advocating for our daughter’s acceptance into their program.

Guiding your teen’s path to mental clarity, sobriety, and a hopeful future.
