I’ve been wanting to take care of my addiction problem for the longest time, and although I have done therapy in the past, it was nothing in comparison to Dunham House  I’m very grateful to be able to benefit from this program. I was provided with a safe place to stay at throughout these past months with help from a great counsellor and different workshops, I was given the opportunity to learn valuable tools and life skills that will help me regain control over my life.

I went to Dunham House for alcoholism. My life and my personal relationships were a disaster. I tried to stop drinking on my own, but every afternoon I realized that I could not keep my word not to drink. My life was collapsing, and I didn't want to live anymore. All my life I felt alone, judged, worthless, and completely lost. I didn't know where to start to rebuild it. Adding to that, I had no sense of belonging in this life. Clearly, I didn't like who I saw when I looked in the mirror; at the same time, I was experiencing depression and anxiety. I took the help that my family offered without thinking twice. I found out about Dunham House through a recommendation. I applied, was accepted, and started treatment in less than a month. My experience in treatment was very good. I was at Dunham for 6 months and, although it sounds like an eternity, it was a fair amount of time for the beginning of my healing and growth process. The classes provided to me were rich in tools to deal with emotions and to know the triggers of my addictions. The in-person therapy with my counselor was a great help to begin my inner healing and learn to be patient and gentle with myself. The yoga classes and exercises sowed the idea of ​​connecting with my body and starting new healthy habits. Let's not to forget the therapy with the horses! beautiful experience. Part of my treatment occurred during the summer, and I was able to enjoy the river, pond, and outdoor activities. I took my treatment as a retreat. I opened up fully to the program, and was in for an awakening, I started making changes in my life, and connecting with myself. The program at Dunham House gave me the tools to go out and make better decisions in my life. The staff have a professional and gentle approach. I am so grateful for their services and for being a part of my rebirth.

My stay at Dunham House was one with many challenges and rewards. The six months seemed like a long time frame at first, but the daily structure, facilities, housemates, and staff made my stay fly by. The councillors and staff members were present whenever I needed them; and the material taught was useful and insightful. I very much looked forward to the lectures as they were informative and well structured. Within the six month period not only did I learn and restructure my day, but I learned to play the drums, worked creatively to create my portfolio, and found my next living/working environment. Out of the many rehabs I've been to, this one is definitely the best structured, and the facilities had everything I needed. I would definitely recommend Dunham House to others for inpatient care.
