Olympia House Rehab

Olympia House saved my life twice. I’m sad to see the bad reviews because that was so far from my experience. The staff is loving and care a great deal. Most are addicts so truly understand. I continue to work with the therapist I had when I was there over a year ago. No rehab is a magic wand. You have to want it and be dedicated to make it work. I still visit there often because it became my safe space. Although sometimes it was incredibly difficult and made me want to leave at some points, I was able to dig through my traumatic past which has led me to still be sober today.

I spent 45 days at OH in early 2020, as I had struggled with an alcohol addiction that was ruining my relationships and slowly, my life. I could not say more about the stellar work these people do. First, they build intentional community, much like the award-winning summer camp my children attended. Absolutely everything is thought through with great empathy, evidence, and intentionality. The clinical services are fantastic. You get hours and hours of therapy and drug/alcohol counseling and group learning per day - they structure your time so that you are learning, processing together, processing with your individual therapist, and with your alcohol and drug counselor. The clinical services are evidence-based, meaning you won't be forced into AA - you can be there for a full course of treatment and get everything you need and don't have to attend a single AA meeting. You will be encouraged to try AA, LifeRing, SmartRecovery, and you'll even have access to a buddhist/zen-inspired approach. The community / culture is fantastic, with an encouragement to connect with people throughout the day, and as hard as it must be to build a positive culture around people who have come with life-threatening problems, they do it! Also: you get a LOT of therapy. The focus here is on getting to the issues that made you an addict in the first place, and opening you to perspective on that, that helps tremendously. It is a lot of work but it is the best work I ever did, and the best money I ever spent in my life. I had a single room, it was comfortable and warm, and agreeable. Nothing super fancy - but I wasn't there for five star lodging. Similarly, the food is robust, plentiful, flavorful and they feed you well three squares plus snacks and juice throughout the day. When you arrive your things are searched and you are urine-tested - as it should be, you are coming in in a bad situation, after a bottom - but even then, with a smile, and they could not be kinder. The clinicians are first rate, the drug and alcohol counselors really know their stuff, and all the staff is kind, warm, friendly and interested. I am still in touch with many of them. One super bonus is that after you graduate the program of at least 28 days, you have access to an alumni group process meeting that is held every week; it is free and is a mainstay of my recovery. Also you have access to what they call 1-2 'tune-ups' a year, where you get to go, again, absolutely free, for 3 days and 2 nights back to Olympia House, where you are a positive connection with the current residents, as someone who is 'out there' in the world living a life in recovery, and you participate in all the group activities, including process group therapy which is a really nice perk of being a graduate - regular access at no cost to ongoing clinical services, delivered by the OH staff and in true OH community fashion. I could not say enough about this place. They truly helped me change my life. Best money I ever spent!

Sadly, like many rehabs in today's world, this facility is driven by money and not the work of treating addiction. The mental health crisis is on full display here. There are some competent and helpful staff and some that are sadly lacking. There should be more done to ensure these facilities are taking appropriate action and treating people fairly. It seems they are able to pick and choose by whim who they will help and not help.

Money money money. That is what this place cares about. If you’re looking for a place that wants just your money. You found it. If you’re looking for a place that cares and wants to help I’d look elsewhere.

My daughter has been there for almost three weeks and the change is nothing less than amazing. Staff are warm. caring, kind, knowledgeable, smart, caring amazing, did I say caring?, What they have done for my daughter in three weeks, is life-changing. I am excited to see what 60 days or if lucky enough to be there 90 days will do not only for her life but for her unborn healthy baby girl and our entire family. I cannot say enough about Olympia House. Except, I only wish I had heard about them sooner. Oh and I hear the food is amazing too.
