I’ve been sober for nearly 3 years since I was a cohort at Cumberland Heights. I happened to have very good health insurance which paid for everything at CH. I don’t regret CH but feel that their best attribute is the food which they really plug. Another positive attribute was my counselor, Kaitlin, who was awesome. The young men/staff members, former cohorts, who worked with us in the Auditorium, ad nauseum, were less than competent and these sessions turned into drudgery. These sessions were basically used to kill time as they had no substance. Additionally, as a member of the LGBTQ community, I felt ill at ease much of the time. My sexual orientation seemed to be so foreign to those staff members who were also in recovery, and who, at one point, bungled a group exercise, drawing attention to my sexuality in front of 60 strangers. It was just plain weird. I have suffered trauma in my life which certainly contributed to my using and drinking. My experience at CH was traumatizing. Thankfully, Kaitlin was so professional and kind that she helped me through this tough experience.
They have some well informed people staying at the location. There hopefully will be more options for exercise, workouts, and extracurricular activities.
OMC (Our Masters Camp) is part of my " Forever Family." I attended OMC in the summer of 2014. I walked in a broken, worn down, self centered man of the world who relied on drugs and alcohol to take away my pain. Three days later I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. And things have not been the same. I recently accepted my One Year Sober medallion from Celebrate Recovery. Walking through the doors at OMC is the biggest hurdle you will face. Just getting there is the hard part. Once you are there, and if you really want to start healing, God will take your broken pieces and start to assemble you back together the way he created you. Remember I walked in a broken, worn down ,self centered man of the world who relied on drugs and alcohol to take away my pain. I left a grateful believer of Jesus who has been delivered from alcohol and drug dependency. I love my entire OMC family. The ones that were there with me, the ones that were there before me, and the ones that will be there after me.
