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 do an excellent job at teaching the you the tools you need to live a sober life. There are excellent counselors there. They provide the structure that us addictive need. Extremely affordable. It is an absolutely beautiful and peaceful place to go. It is a 90 day program which is much more helpful than a lesser amount of time would have been. The employees there care about the addicts and are very helpful. The only weakness that I've seen is that they have a poor follow-up plan for the people that graduate from there. I am so thankful and blessed to have been able to go to English Mountain Recovery. Everyone was wonderful in some form or fashion in my own personal recovery. The structure that is provided there is definitely something that is needed for an addict. They help people understand about spiritual awakenings and how important that is along with the 12 step program. All the tools you need and counseling is right there. I would highly recommend English Mountain Recovery to anyone that wants help in learning to live a sober life. I celebrated a year of sobriety on 3/19/2015 and I'm extremely grateful for all I learned there and for all the therapy I received.
It worked for me, even though I wasn't a life long addict, just 4-5 years.
