Meeting Every Challenge
Many people suffering from a mental health condition like depression have sought relief in outpatient settings and haven’t found an effective solution. Incorrect diagnoses and inadequate care can be common problems. Not responding to treatment or only getting partially better is not enough – why accept ‘better’ when thriving can be possible?
A New Start
Jane Roberts went to The Retreat to change her behavior; learn how to think about life in a different way; and, at the root, to receive help for her borderline personality disorder and depression. “I’m very thankful for my experience at The Retreat and Ruxton House,” she says. “They basically saved my life. I don’t know where I would be otherwise.”
