Treatment only works when you genuinely want to be there and are willing to accept help. I credit Pathways—and the people in my life who convinced me to go—with saving my life. I wanted and needed the help, and they provided the kind of empathetic yet challenging environment that helped me overcome decades of destructive thought patterns and behaviors.
Everyone I worked with, from house staff to the CEO, was supportive beyond expectations, all focused on the main goal: helping me to help myself get better.
Pathways is voluntary, you do not "get fired". If you have conflict with staff or other clients, it is the best place to be since trained staff and supportive peers are there to help. It's the whole point.
For any peers that remember me: I wish you all the best--you're amazing!
For staff: Thank you from the deepest parts of my soul for the difference you've made in my life.

The only reason I'm giving it one star is cuz you can't give it a zero star which I would definitely and this is why my boyfriend entered into a program he only had two classes left but because he had a difference of opinion with Josh, who takes things way too personally, boyfriend kicked out of the program when he only had two classes left he got no credit for any of that time that he had done or the time that he had put into it thanks Josh just know not everybody's going to agree with you Josh!

I am so grateful for the CEO Tchelsey and her staff for the difference they have made in my grandaughters life. The love and care she experienced has turned her life around and given her the tools she needed to succeed.

My time in treatment at Pathways taught me about self love and compassion, not defining myself by others opinions, and the power of vulnerability. I started my journey back in November of last year and you wouldn’t even recognize who I am now. Over the course of a few months I found so much healing and safety with the group interactions. The time I spent at pathways with my recovery specialist, therapist, doctor, and the group interactions all changed my life in so many ways. Not only was I able to work though some blocks I had from my past, I learned several skills and self love to get over any other hurdles that life continues to throw. I am eternally grateful for all of the therapists and clients that helped me through the journey.

These people are just after money. I went to them struggling and then COVID hit. I lost my job and couldn’t afford the payments anymore and I was told by them that it’s ok and that we could terminate my contract due to COVID and the “unprecedented times” fast forward 5 years later I get hit with a bill for 12k. Like I just have 12k lying around. Now my credit is shot, I can’t afford to get a new car that I’ve been saving almost 2 years for and I’m back in debt but hey they got their money so all is good right?

Pathways real life recovery truly changed my life. It was the best decision I ever did at the time when I truly needed help. I was scared at first but everybody was so welcoming and made me feel like my trauma was no less or more then everybody else’s. They helped me gained my confidence and self love back. I’m so thankful for Amy being my therapist. Josh for leading great/really helpful groups. Jaryd for helping me think for myself and what do I WANT in life. Chelsea for seeing me for the beautiful soul I am. And Tchelsey for giving me the chance and believing in me I needed this. Courtney and Sage being the welcoming/ awesome/ helpful receptionists everytime I came in. Everyone is so great here , whenever you feel like hope is lost I encourage people to come here. They gave me the tools I needed to continue my healing journey and I’ll forever be grateful for them.

Pathways changed my life for the better in so, so many ways. I came in with basically no hope in life and left a person who is fully embracing life. All of the staff truly care about people and want to do all they can to help them, and the group therapy format allows clients to learn from each other's resilience and grow a bond that is so uniquely powerful (and we have a ton of fun along the way). If you're struggling in any way with your mental health and/or with addiction, please reach out to Pathways. The things you learn and skills you gain will help you more fully live the life you want to.

Hi, I am a client here at pathways. This therapy program has honestly changed my life. I could never have imagined the progress I am making on myself. I used to have severe anxiety to where I couldn’t even leave the house or get up to my desk to work from home. I was just rotting away in my bed and getting high all the time and throwing up from my anxiety. I now have been sober for 5 months and I haven’t thrown up in 5 months either. They have helped me take back control of my emotions and my life and I feel like it can only keep getting better if I listen to everything that pathways offers/ teaches me. My eyes have been opened to how bad I have treated myself and all the shame and guilt I was feeling but could never fully point out because I just always felt numb and never wanted to feel my feelings. I now know what I need to work on and I truly feel that I am making progress that will not just only help me now but for the rest of my life. This is the best decision that I’ve ever made for myself. The therapist that they have are all great. My main therapist is Tina and she has been so kind, genuine, supportive every meeting that I’ve had with her. Also the other therapist has been so helpful when they are teaching groups. I love that it’s different people leading groups because it’s always a new perspective on things. Even the clients in group therapy make it such an inviting environment where you can feel free to be exactly who you are. I have shared more with the staff and clients than I ever have with anyone in my life. The clients I’ve meet have become some of the best friends I’ve ever made. Pathways is such a great place that I can’t even really say how grateful I am for it. Pathways will forever be a part of me and I would recommend anyone who needs help with mental health issues or addiction issues to go there. It truly saved my life and I can see a bright future for me

Okay! So, a fabulous place to get treatment. They treat you well here, and it is a comfortable environment to share your problems and get the help you need. I want to write that I've never seen a clinic highlight so much that I mattered as a person, and this was crucial for my recovery and giving me the optimism I needed to continue my life. I saw people get help for addiction, anxiety, and trauma, and no matter their experiences, they were always reminded that they mattered. This coupled with their methods of treatment are what helped me get better.For highlights: I enrolled in their IOP program, meaning I went to their clinic in Sandy 3 times a week, for 2 hours those days in the evenings for group therapy. I was impressed with their treatment process. Monday evenings, you learn and engage in a therapy process called Mind-Body Bridging (MBB), Tuesdays is a check in with learning about breathing/meditation, and Thursdays is meditation/yoga. All of these, while they may seem kind of trivial, actually help if you take them seriously and apply them outside of the clinic.They also had me meet with a doctor, an individual therapist, and a "recovery specialist" who helped me delve even deeper into the roots of my problems (essentially, another therapist). All of these aspects played a huge role in my treatment process. The doctor prescribed me meds for my specific problem that my normal healthcare provider would have never thought of to prescribe, and it was a gamechanger. Next, my individual therapist, handpicked by the director of the clinic who she thought I would click with best, ended up being one of the best therapists I've ever had--Shawn was very understanding and crucial in my recovery. Finally, the recovery specialist was a unique aspect to an IOP program, and he played a role in which I was able to reflect on my life and figure out the "roots" of my challenges--this included figuring out my values, journaling, and most importantly, asking myself "why" things were important to me. Trust me when I say that taking this seriously will help you figure out where you've been, where you are now, and where you can go, hopefully in a different direction if you've been through hard experiences.Places to improve:--Punctuality. Often in the evenings, the facilitator would wait up to 20 minutes to start because we were waiting for others to trickle in. I get that we want to look out for everyone--I also think that if people care about their own treatment, they'll make an effort to show up on time like I did. I paid a lot for this program--I wanted every moment to count. That being said, I did enjoy the chill conversations I had with other clients and the facilitator while we waited--and punctuality could still improve.--Staying on task. Some evenings, we would get off track because we were having so much fun with conversation. Or, we would get off track because one client or another would unintentionally share so much that a good chunk of the night was more about them than the group. I think it could definitely help if the facilitators put more effort into keeping the group on task. It happened enough to be noticeable, though not enough to knock a star off this review.--Clear road to graduation. This program did not make it clear what they expected for me to graduate. For this program, partway through I had to ask, "hey, what do I have to do to graduate, I'm feeling like I've made a lot of progress." What followed was actually fairly complex. I had to meet with a separate counselor and complete 4 different long assignments (which I didn't know there were 4 parts to until I completed part 2, which I thought was the end) then get approval from him and my counselor. There was probably more looked at, but in general, I had to ask and it was not made known to me otherwise.--Enrolling and questions. Questions about enrolling and finances took some time to get answers to, because the woman in charge was always in meetings. Having an assistant could help.

Pathways is a place of miracles. I and so many others have come to pathways feeling unheard, misdiagnosed, hopeless, like no matter what you do you’re not good enough, and given up on by other outpatient or inpatient treatment. Pathways is a treatment center, but more than anything, it becomes your family. The friends I have made in my peers are lifelong, and I feel safe knowing that I can come anytime and my friends in the staff are lifelong too. I came to pathways with an undiagnosed eating disorder, zero will to live and the belief that my trauma wasn’t trauma, and everyday I leave group, I leave with compassion, affirmations I can believe in, and hope for my future ❤️ Recovery is not easy, but this place will support you through all the hard things. The trauma track is life altering (thanks Josh), the therapists are all so so kind and amazing at their jobs, the front desk staff and recovery specialists are my best pals, there’s this amazing yoga and meditation teacher and we all get so pumped to see her, the doctor is super cool and always wears cool outfits and is really diligent about finding the right meds, and Tchelsey, Chrissy, and Amy have been the only reasons some days that I continue to choose recovery from my eating disorder. If you’re at all on the fence about getting help, just go to the free consultation and meet with them and get a snack and you will be comforted and loved just as you are.

Pathways Real Life Recovery equipped me with the invaluable tools and therapy I needed to overcome my addiction issues. I couldn’t speak more highly of their CBT approach, excellent staff and flexibility while in their care. This was the best investment I’ve ever made.

To say this program has changed my life would be an understatement. I am still undergoing treatment, but would not be able to push through without the support and skills these amazing people work so hard to provide. I am so impressed with the staff which have grown to feel more like family. The world needs more people like what you will find here at pathways!
