Dear Adolescent Growth
Thank you for everything that you’ve done for me here. You turned my whole life around and opened my eyes to many positive things, for example yoga, exercise, meditation, etc. The people here are just amazing…clients and staff. I know that you guys really do care about me and want to make my life better. Thank you

I learned so many valuable things while being here. I learned how to cope with my anger in a positive, useful way. I’m leaving here with tons of coping skills, things for the moment of pain or stress and skills for the after pain. I walked into this building 29 days ago with a pain in my heart that I thought would never go away, and I’m leaving today with strength and courage that will never fade away.
No matter where life takes me, I will ride it like a wave; I will feel the gravity that doesn’t ever go away. What goes up must come down, and no matter how far down you go someone will always bring you up. Adolescent Growth was my gravity. They brought me up out of the whole. They taught me the wrongs and rights, and always helped me push past the hard times.
I came here with no hope, but I’m leaving with strength, wisdom and more hope than I’ve ever had in my life. I didn’t want to believe it, but it really does work. If you give yourself to this program, everything will become a possibility.
Love Cheyenne

Dear Adolescent Growth,
It's been a pleasure being here to learn how to control my problems. I really appreciate you providing for me and teaching me how to deal with my problems. I learned how to limit my anger, drug addiction, and how to be mindful. I enjoyed interacting with staff and clients and enjoyed the Sunday outings. I am going to miss the whole facility and everybody and staff. thank you for everything Goodbye

Hi (admissions personnel),
Thank you so much for the update on (client). As you can imagine, I have been thinking about him just about non-stop since we dropped him off and wondering how he is faring and fitting in. I truly appreciate you letting me know he is doing well and adjusting to the "new life" he will be leading for the next weeks. I do feel this is the right placement for him, and you cannot know how grateful I am your organization has a Christian emphasis. I PRAY DAILY that Griffin will return to the foundation he was raised upon and embrace his once strong and unwavering faith. I do believe his "falling away" has been a huge factor in his current behavior. I am hopeful he can emerge from this experience a new and healed man.
Thank you also for the information on how to receive updates on his progress. We did set up a conference call with Justin for Wednesday. He said he would contact us on Tuesday to schedule the exact time. We had a chance to fill Justin in on some of Griffin's background behaviors/experiences, so hopefully that will be helpful as he makes his personal assessment.
Lastly, thank you so much for your PERSONAL involvement while we went through the intake process. You have no idea how much you calmed my fears and helped me to realize we are making the right choice to finally get Griffin the help he needs. I enjoyed meeting you and interacting with you very much. If all the staff members there have half the compassion and caring that you have I know we chose the right facility. Thank you again for taking care of my baby.
This whole experience has been EXTREMELY hard on me and my whole family. I keep thinking about what a sweet little boy he was and how I had such great hopes and dreams for him. I am praying fervently that we can get back to that sweet little boy--just in a much bigger body :) We really appreciate all you have done. Please feel free to contact us at any time.

It's Amy (client’s) mom. Just wanted to say thank you so much for taking care of us all, in our heart, mind and spirit. Thank you so much for all your care and support and wisdom. Everything you said would happen when we spoke to our daughter, did happen. She did question certain things, she did make promises and all that. But, we really appreciate your advice.
Because it came in really handy. And thank you so much because I saw my daughter yesterday and she is coming back to her God given self. And it was just such a miracle for me to see her and have her hug me like that. Praise God. Anyway, thank you so much Dr. Joy for all you are doing for my daughter and our whole family. And have a blessed day.

Hi Virginia,
It has been a pleasure working with the Adolescent Growth staff and the treatment that the center offered my son. The intake and first impressions of the facility and staff was pleasing and accommodating. Thank u for all your help in getting Mark there ASAP, and for taking the time to hear my son's story and how your facility can be a part of his recovery. Everyone was very nice to my son and to us. Today, I feel positive about my son's recovery and behavior than I did in the beginning of this process.
The therapists are great. Justin was always available to speak to me when I had an issue or concern regarding my son. Justin always expressed to my son and to us of Mark's progress. Justin's explanation of the Systematic Approach was very on target with our family and what we needed to do as a family unit to become a healthier family.
Every one, including Carl and Nadia was very pleasant and wonderful staff. I also would like to mention, that I appreciated tremendously of Justin's belief in a higher power, God.
Thank u so much.I would recommend this facility to a family in need of an inpatient program.
Thank u so much.
God Bless

I think you guys at Adolescent Growth are doing a wonderful job. I see a significant change in my daughter. I got back my baby girl back. Thank you Adolescent Growth.

They (Adolescent Growth) got our son to open up and see his weaknesses and what he needs to work on. There really is nothing that we feel Adolescent Growth needs to work on or change.

Adolescent Growth did a great job of always staying in contact with me while my son was in the facility.

(Client) connected with Shauna (therapist) and they had an excellent relationship. The care given by Adolescent Growth was excellent and we appreciated the frequent calls to connect with us regarding her progress.
