IF YOU WANT TO RECOVER FROM A HOPELESS STATE OF BODY AND MIND - Liberty Bay Recovery Center IS the place to go. The amount of care and dedication this amazing treatment center gave me in hopes that I find a solution and wake up to what I was doing to myself, my life, and the people around me is one that I have not found in any other treatment center I have been to in the past. From the clinicians to the support staff to admissions - Liberty Bay makes it a point to let you know they see you, they hear you and we are going to find the best way to actively take action in my recovery. I am beyond grateful for my experience here. Id absolutely recommend Liberty Bay Recovery Center to anyone who actually wants to make a difference in their life, because it has absolutely changed and saved my life for the better.

When i was there a counselor read text messages between the two of us aloud to the group and another counselor told me that if i wasn’t bisexual then to “stop acting like it.” super abusive, easier to get sober on your own. at least the PHP. detox was fine

Liberty Bay is an incredible place that helps so many people and saves lives. If theres negative reviews on here like the woman who claimed she hadnt eaten in 3 days and demanded ice cream, which they dont have and treats staff like servants, then is anyone really surprised that she cant take accountability for her actions? I saw how she treated the staff there and was frankly disgusted. One can only imagine where her recovery or lack of is now. Alongside her integrity, non existent!

I truly believe that Liberty Bay saved my life. I have been to many other treatments in the past 8 years, and never experienced the level of care that I received at Liberty Bay. The clinical staff, medical staff and support staff had such an abundance of compassion and knowledge for us clients. I stayed for almost 3 months and would recommend the Therapeutic Community approach to anyone that seeks help for any addiction. I’m so grateful to every single person that works at Liberty Bay...

IF YOU VALUE YOUR BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS then this is NOT the place for you. From the moment I arrived it was an absolute nightmare. Upon arrival they take every item of clothing and wash and dry it. They returned my clothes folded and soaking wet. They only dried them after I threatened to leave. After not eating or drinking anything for days, I asked if I could have some jello or ice cream. They told me flat out NO with no explanation. I was a fall risk and tried to use their flimsy call button to summon assistance. No show. I walked to the staff station and was reprimanded. Turns out the call button and two more they tried did not work even at close range. The self described co owner, Nathan, came in with his smug attitude saying hes a problem solver, but gave no solution. Ive grown up with alcoholism in my family and have attended countless family sessions at rehabs all throughout the the country. I can say beyond a shadow of doubt, this place is the very worst. Empathy and compassion were nowhere to be found. Making money for addict owners and staff who otherwise couldn’t prosper financially in the real world is their true mission. Once they get your money, all promises are snatched away. Truly, the worst experience of my life. So unfortunate because there is such need in Maine for addiction treatment. Because the state’s demographics do not attract high quality providers, bush league organizations like this are able to exploit the situation. They will probably respond to this review by saying my words are a symptom of my addiction but I can assure you otherwise. Beware!

Liberty Bay is the best treatment facility you will find in Maine. If you are ready and willing to surrender and get better this is the best place to go. Staff are amazing and caring. Food is great. The groups and activities are amazing. Ive been to facilities from Michigan to California and this is hands down the best and most helpful!! I am 22 this place has helped me change myself for the better. If you are thinking about treatment this is the place!

Liberty Bay saved my life.I knew that my drinking was way out of control and I knew that I had to do something about it. When I got there, just like a lot of people I immediately wanted to leave. I was depressed and scared as hell. The staff set me down and helped me realize just how much I needed to be there, they were kind caring and understanding and talked me into staying and to at least give it a chance. Please believe me, these people really care!I can tell you that there were times when we did things and I thought hey, what does this have to do with us getting sober. But if you listen and really pay attention, there is a reason and a lesson in everything they have you do. You have to go into it with an open mind.You have to do the work. Trust me, they will help you.I have been sober now for 1 year and 3 months and things get better every day. You just have to want it.It really is one day at a time.If youre thinking about going to LB then please do it, give it a chance. It will be the best decision you have ever made!Call Adam. He will help you and make you feel welcome! Hes the best!!

This is NOT a dual diagnosis center. They do NOT have psychiatrists. If you need a dual diagnosis center, go to Green Mountain Treatment Center or McLean Hospital. Otherwise you will be tortured here for your mental disorder.

Liberty Bay thank you for your help during a time of immediate need for a recovery center. The recovery journey is not necessarily a path a parent plans for a child at birth so when the need arrives with an adult son it can be a time of crisis. Leslie in admissions was/is professional, understanding, supportive, knowledgeable and kind. We needed guided, answers and assurance. We are thankful for your help to get us started on recovery.

Stayed here for 20 days- this place absolutely changed my way of thinking and helped with some behaviors that contributed to my addiction. The clinicians are very talented and will stay past their work hours if needed. I would recommend anyone who needs help to seek help at Liberty Bay

Liberty bay is an amazing place! I did not know what to expect and could not believe how the staff, program and methodology has changed my life. I am truly a new woman today and have a great foundation to build my life. Thanks to the clinicians Jess, Lynn, Jeremy and Madeleine for working with me to get to the real person that I was meant to be, to Tyler for saving my life and Stephanie , Daniel, Lisa and Adam for all the encouragement they gave me and Arielle, Kelby, Bella, Dana, Dana and Dillon for there support.

An excellent service for getting to the root of addiction, this coming from someone who left early, angry and self consumed.One years perspective on my treatment has afforded me the ability to express myself more appropriately, and consider my affect on those around me. Something many in my situation wouldnt realize.Ive still got a long way to go.Thank you Liberty Bay for opening the door.

Big thanks to the staff, E, Lynn, Tyler, Lisa, Sammie, Lauren, Trish, and everyone else upstairs! Each and every one of you helped me figure out how to get my life back on the right track. Everyone was kind and welcoming from start to finish. If you are honestly interested in changing your lives then this is definitely the place! Recovery is not going to be easy, but now that I have some tools that I so desperately needed, I’m changing my thinking and my life for the better. The building was nice, and the food was great! Nothing bad at all will come out of my mouth about this place! All the counselors care and want to help you. This was my first time in treatment and I couldn’t of figured it out without all of you. Don’t take it personal if I never see you guys again 😉 So BIG thanks again to everyone in the liberty bay community. Looking forward to some outside meetings with liberty bay folks!

This is THE PLACE to go if you are SERIOUS about getting clean and starting over!! Medically assisted detox is more comfortable and quicker, and the follow up care is second to none. The staff genuinely care about your success. Moderately strict, but not jail like environment. Great activities, weight room, massage, house guitars, off site meetings, on staff chef, and more!! I definitely dont want to go back, but IF I ever suffer a set back, this is my first stop.... ERC

Although Liberty Bay Recovery wasn’t able to help my son because of a condition beyond there control. Which they explained with the utmost sympathy and regret. Nate and Lesley went above and beyond to help us find a place that would. My experience with them was awesome. They are both equally knowledgeable and caring people. I would highly recommend this place.

Liberty Bay has helped me tremendously during the past year. The staff, services and facility are top-notch. I have been through detox and attended the IOP there. The groups are extremely beneficial and run by counselors who are experienced and empathetic but do not hold back in in order to help you get to the root of your addiction. They provide you with the tools to move forward and many options for the next level of care whether it is there or elsewhere.

Ive heard nothing but great things about Liberty Bay - from the people they work with to employees who have moved on; Liberty Bays model for treatment worked really well for several people I know who have gone through the program. It was just what they needed, when they needed it and how they needed it is a consistent message.Good job Nate & team - keep up the life saving work!

I reached out needing advice and support in learning how i could be supportive to a loved one. The staff never gave up in making contact with me as I worked through the beginning phases of this journey and my role. They helped take the fear away and gave mer courage to stay strong..Id recommend, even just a phone call with questions, any day to any one who was faced with substance/alcohol abuse, addiction, depression, or other dual diagnoses for themselves or a loved one. Thank you Nate for your help.

Words cannot express the gratitude that I have for the staff at Liberty Bay. From the first day I made the call for my son I had the best experience. Leslie in admissions was amazing, compassionate, and extremely kind, helping in such a stressful time with such a huge decision concerning my son’s health and well-being. She went well above and beyond to answer any questions and concerns, providing a calming effect with her cheerful and positive expertise.I am so grateful I chose this incredible program, as the staff cares about each and every individual in such a special way. This leads to the belief that the staff, particularly Lynn and Ron, who never once gave up on him, helped save my son’s life and finally recognize his path to recovery. I am amazed at the young man he has become today.Beth H.

Nate led my students in educational programming connected to his work at Liberty Bay. My students learned deeply from Nate’s presentation and they were touched by his kindness and honesty. He helped to dispel myths about addiction and also challenged them to personal growth. Portland is blessed to have such a professional, research based and compassionate place for those struggling with addictions.

I am tremendously grateful to Liberty Bay for helping me on my road to recovery. This is a unique and extraordinary program that I cannot recommend highly enough. LB has truly exceptional staff who clearly care deeply and who give their time, guidance, and support above and beyond anything I would expect from a treatment facility. The therapeutic community has enriched my life and ensured that I stay connected and recovery-focused after completing the 90 day program. The life transformations that I have witnessed here are nothing short of miraculous.

Liberty Bay has been an incredible life changing experience for me. I have been in and out of the A.A. program for years stringing together various lengths of time but never being able to maintain. Liberty Bay has given me a shot of hope for the first time that not only can I get sober but I can stay sober. A caring community that has taught me an incredible amount about who I am and what I can do to live happily in sobriety. I will be forever grateful for Liberty Bay.

Going to Liberty Bay for Recovery was the best decision I ever made. Its been 2 years & 3 months since my Recovery began and my life has changed drastically for the better due to the Treatment I received from all the staff at Liberty Bay. I have rebuilt my relationships with my family and its never been better, I am involved in their lives daily. My work & financial situation has greatly improved as well and due to my efforts I was recently promoted to a Supervisor position. If you are ready for change and willing to do the WORK Liberty Bay is the place for you. They are SOOOO GOOD at what they do and know the best plan for you to help you combat addiction. I remain forever grateful!

I’ve been in and out of AA, detox and rehabs for the last 15 years. I was out of chances and needed to make a real change in my life and the staff and clinicians at Liberty Bay showed me the way.

Where would I be without Liberty Bay? Some would say that I wouldn’t be sober and in recovery and I would have to agree.Liberty Bay Recovery Center was not my first experience at a rehab facility. With that being said I can honestly say that it is superlative to prior centers.From the start at admission with Leslie and Adam I felt at ease and comforted. Kindness continued as I entered detox. With such a difficult and overwhelming situation I found that Tylor, Tina, Venessa and the rest of the helpful staff were there to put me at ease with compassion and understanding.I cannot say enough about the clinical case workers.... Lynn and Danielle play a vital role in recovery at Liberty Bay. With daily counseling and lessons on gaining the tools to stay sober, these two really know what they’re doing!!!Today I’m 60 days sober and I can thank the entire staff at Liberty Bay for getting me here!Thank you Liberty Bay for giving me hope about my future!

I will forever be grateful for Liberty Bay Recovery Center. They truly showed me a new way of life. I was taught so many things from cooking at the girls house in my first 90 days to just being a honest responsible working citizen again. It may sound silly but as addicts we loose all morals and just forget how to live life, and Liberty Bay picks you up and puts you back together. The 12 steps and a higher power kept it all together for me, but the staff at Liberty Bay truly took the time to help me fight my demons that kept me going back to the drug.

I must say that this place has changed my life all for the better. If i never came to this place i would not be where iam at today. I have honestly never been this happy in my life and have never felt so much love in one place. Everyone is so helpful. Im so grateful to all the staff/ house mangers that showed me when i was going backwards and demanding change. i can honestly say that this was the best experience i have yet to to do in my life..After completing the main phase of the program i have friends i stay close with. I have a full time job. Also i have a honest relationship with my family. Best of all i have my kids back in my life. I could of not done any of this on my own. so i wanna say thanks to everyone..

Liberty Bay Recovery Center saved my life!! I did not come to treatment with the thought of getting sober, I came here to get out of a prison stay. When I got here I was welcomed and accepted by the kindest and most loving people I had ever met, they explained and showed me that the way I had been living my life was not normal and completely unacceptable. They have given me the tools and resources to become a productive member of society. I will forever be grateful and honored to be a proud graduate of liberty bay recovery center, and look forward to a healthy happy future and life.

It is nearly 16 months that my daughter, Molly, entered treatment at Cascade Heights in Spokane. She has been sober this entire time and has worked hard to maintain that.Without your help back in Sept. 2015, I don’t think it would ever have happened. It is very possible that my daughter would not be alive today if not for your intervention.I remember that Monday, Sept. 28 very well. Molly was desperate to find a treatment option and we felt powerless trying to help her. I remembered reading an article about Operation Hope at the Scarborough Police Dept. I found the name of your treatment facility in the article and quickly called Liberty Bay hoping this would be the kind of place we were looking for.I was crushed when you told me that you were a men only facility. But you said you had a sister facility in Washington state and that you would fly her out there if she was ready to go. . The idea of her traveling all the way across country was almost out of the question. I remember you being so supportive and helpful that it seemed too good to be true. Molly agreed to go which took an unbelievable amount of courage and faith on her part.After visiting your place that day, I took her to the airport and she started her journey. It is a journey that she is till on and will be for a long time, I believe. It is a journey that you helped start.Looking back, it comes as close to a miracle as I’ve ever seen. You helped to make that happen and Molly, her mother and I want you to know that we will never forget you for that.

Liberty Bay has opened doors for my life in which I could not see possible before attending treatment there. The staff is beyond dedicated to the treatment of their clients and the results show in each and every one of the faces that have found a new freedom, and a new happiness. Many of those faces I call my bestfriends today. Liberty Bay uses community to build self worth and accountability. I now face the world a strong woman in recovery, and a successful functioning member of society.

Nate is an amazing person he personally opened up a womans sober living in Prescott, AZ that I stayed at for 9 months of my recovery. I truly do not know if I would be a sober woman with a beautiful life today without the opportunity and support he gave me. I am happy to know that he opened a treatment center because of all the other people he will be able to help. Some people are just born with the gift of helping others, and that is Nate. I recommend to anyone reading this to get in touch with Nate and Jasmine if you want recovery to work with you or a family member. These people dont just look at you as a number they look at you as a human being worth saving. I promise! These are amazing people who turn broken people into people with a purpose!

I came into Liberty Bay feeling hopeless that anything would ever change for me, I had accepted that that was my life and nothing was ever going to change that. I had battled with a drug addiction for 6 years before I was lucky enough to end up here. These past 90 days have changed my life drastically for the better. The staff and over all community feel like a home and a family. I have never been so thankful for anything as I am for Liberty Bay I truly believe this Recovery Community is the best thing that ever happened to me and would encourage anyone wanting a new, better, brighter life to do this program.

For many years our family has lived with the pain and fear of addiction. Thanks in large part to The Liberty Bay Recovery Program and the amazing care and dedication of its therapists and counselors, for the first time in many years our family is celebrating Thanksgiving as a family —healthy and sober.Anyone who has dealt with addiction knows that there is no “cure”. Similarly, there is no program that can “guarantee” that your loved one will stay sober forever. However, based on our experience with many different programs over the years, Liberty Bay is truly special. This is not a “one size fits all” program. The therapists work with each individual and this work is uniquely based on the this individual’s own history and personal issues. This gives them more understanding of themselves and an ability to grow and learn from this understanding. The Therapeutic Community model encourages and requires honesty, self examination, communication and responsibility. Just as importantly, our loved ones learn about their obligation and opportunity of honesty and communication with others and the strength that comes from this community. Liberty Bay teaches and instills a sense of community that is critical to moving forward.Liberty Bay’s Therapeutic Community program is truly unique. But its effectiveness is achieved only through the incredible dedication, commitment and love given to each client that attends. Every person you come in contact with at Liberty Bay cares deeply and intensely about giving your loved one the chance to recover and then re-enter the community at large. Our children have not only learned the tools of how to stay sober but have worked hard to get to know who they are. Not only did they gain sobriety but they also gained confidence and strength in the community that is Liberty Bay.When your loved one is willing to take steps toward sobriety, Liberty Bay will give them the foundation to build a sober and meaningful life going forward. We could not be more thankful to Liberty Bay. We are so proud of the hard work our children have done to get where they are and we are so thankful to see them happy.

I have been to many recovery based treatment centers, but none have warranted the praise that I have for Liberty Bay! When I first heard about Liberty Bay I was concerned and intimidated, this was just another treatment facility that really didnt care about me they just wanted my money. My first day I quickly found out that that was not the case. I found a family, people who really cared about my well being and my health, they cared about Conor. From clinical to house managers, support staff and the men and women in recovery who are making this difficult journey with me through recovery; the love, care and concern is prevalent. I cant justify enough the immense love I have for this community here at Liberty Bay. Liberty Bay is my home!

All I have to say about this place is wow! Miracles happen within the walls of liberty bay. Being here the past 3 months has given me a new attitude and outlook upon life. This is the third rehab I have been to and after completing the program I strongly believe it will be my last one. They have given me a new meaning on the word family and I know I will be very close with all the people I have gone through with for a long time. The staff is amazing and know what they are doing, they put a lot of time and effort into helping each person individually but also in a group setting. If you decide to come here you will not be disappointed in your decision.

Liberty Bay is my saving grace. They taught me how to live right and be honest in all aspects of my life. I have struggled for over a decade with alcohol addiction. Nothing would work for long. Everything I tried before would lead to relapse. From the moment I was put into contact with the owner of Liberty Bay till now I have never felt anything but care and love for me and the sincerest wish for me to succeed at sobriety. Liberty Bay put me into a highly structured inpatient living situation that gave me the ability and opportunity to work on the hard family of origin and relationship issues that was the true cause of my drinking. With a large focus on building a strong support community with my peers and the twelve steps I have come to be living in the most stable and rewarding period of my life. I cant even imagine where I would be without Liberty Bay and all of the people that have come into my life because of it. Thank you for saving my life.

Liberty Bay gave me everything I needed to begin my journey in recovery. At first, 90 days felt like it would be forever. By the end, I didnt want to leave my new family. I wish that every treatment center used the therapeutic community approach. It facilitated a change in me that would have taken years to accomplish otherwise. I graduated with a brave ability to be honest, an open mind, a willing spirit, and a true faith in AA and a higher power. Thank you.

Detox is not an easy thing to enter into. Usually the circumstances have been tough if that is where you need to head. But, if you need to go through the process, you want to have the best experience during such a tough time in your life. I had no idea what to expect in detox but I found my experience so much more than detoxing my body. I learned so much about my disease and ways you can turn your life around and start living life like it is supposed to be lived. Liberty Bay Medical and Clinical staff were so professional and caring throughout the entire stay. The facility also is super clean and comfortable and the food was great as well. I hope I do not have to come back and I get my life on the right track but if I had to go another time I would choose Liberty Bay again.

I have traveled literally coast to coast going in and out of treatment centers and I have yet to find one with more of an impact than Liberty Bay. Life changing; if you want it to be. My experience there allowed me to open my eyes and look inward at the things that have chained me down for so long. Having been in and out for so long, I truly believe that Liberty Bay has given me all the tools that I need in order to STAY in. -MX

Liberty Bay Recovery center has saved my life. The staff works extremely hard with each client to support them on their journey towards recovery. They care individually for clients that are here, both first time clients and people coming in from other treatment facilities. The process to be accepted into the program was quick and professional. I recommend this program to anyone struggling with this disease.

Nate and Jasmine are a wonderful team. They, along with the other Liberty Bay staff, put their clients success first and foremost. I have absolute faith in their ability to help recovering alcoholics and addicts heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

If you attend treatment here, one of the outtake steps is to leave a positive Google review. Only reason this place has any positive rating at all.

I reached out through a review just like this looking for help because like most people i knew nothing of navigating this world, Nathan and his staff reached back immediately becoming a compass and directing myself and my family to where we needed to go and are still supportive even if they cannot assist you themselves, this is a global problem that has no boundaries this group will help you know your not alone and there is no shame or blame i cannot say enough good things...

A law suit waiting to happen. This place is the equivalent of a sobriety concentration camp. It is run based on fear and a mob mentality of utter shame and depravity. People pretend to get better for fear of retaliation from the counselors and staff. They have inflated ratings of people who have stayed sober..when the actual count for long term sobriety in 3 years is under 5 people. Game over..lowest score possible. Plus the owner is a scumbag piece of garbage who shoots dollar signs into his carotid artery. He relapsed last year...lied about it and lives a sham of a life. Only go here if you want to hate yourself for all eternity. Ive seen spiritually healthier sweatshops in rural China.

When my life had become unmanageable and I reached my low point, Liberty Bay was there to help me back on the path of life. Starting from the ownership and continuing on, the faculty there all have the same goal for you...recovery. I cant say enough good about everyone there. The clinicians especially have an approach unlike any other, with AMAZING results. Liberty Bay truly helped turn my life around and continues to do so during Re Entry group sessions. This is a community....not just a rehab facility. Thank you to all there!

Review №85

Although the staff and food and group sessions were great, I wish I had never had my family spend 6000 to go here. When accepted I went in from leavin Mercy hospital to go to a better facility that had expertise in withdrawl mediation and in therapy, because at Mercy, I went code red and nearly died from being given TOO much sedative medications. So Liberty Bay got paid and sent their car to get me around 8PM or so at night. I went and had a medical review with a new nurse, who misconstrued everything I said. I told her I had experienced a seizure a couple weeks back from withdrawls and improper medications. She asked if I was suicidal, I said no just tired and ready to get healthy after a month of absolute hell, no openings at any detox programs in the state that accept insurance and 14 visits to the ER within the month. I said I was suicidal 15 years ago when my fiancé died tragically, but not now because I have children who need me. I then was shown where I could get something to eat since I hadn’t eaten since early afternoon. I had a bagel with peanut butter and was waiting for my room assignment. Then, MANY police officers and ambulance workers comeWalking out the elevator saying I was unfit to be in detox and needed to go back Mercy because she said I was susicidal and having seizures!!!! I was transported by ambulance BACK to Mercy ER, where I sat and wasn’t helped for over a hour and at that point was shaking badly with no medications for too long. I flipped out and the doctor finally came and gave me valium. Then I contacted my lawyer, who was obviously sleeping at 1130pm. And the head of Liberty Bay called and apologized a million times and begged me to come back. So back I went, even though I was LIVID, I did it for my health and my family. I was medicated and slept through 2 days before going to group. On Sunday, new nurses were there and wouldn’t give me my morning meds, which were already late on and I was shaking a lot, they claimed they needed two people that’s just their policy. When every other day it was ONE PERSON! They immediately contacted Tyler Hanson to come up after finishing med hand outs downstairs. After another half hour and complete shaking near seizure, I went down with a nurse to find him and he was outside laughing and smoking cigarettes. That was it for me. I took my meds through the day. Set up to go to doctors in the morning, and had my husband get me. Now, I’m working with a group of lawyers to get every penny back. And we will go VERY public with this if it doesn’t happen by the time we file our report and paperwork’s with the courts!

Liberty Bay is an excellent program. Ive known the owners for many years and Nate and Jasmine are two of the best people in this field. Their knowledge of addiction, recovery, and healthcare is only outmatched by their passion for helping people and their kind loving hearts. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone needing addiction services.

Liberty Bay Recovery Center has completely changed my life. In the 90 days I spent in the therapeutic community, I was able to look at and get a handle on some of the issues that caused me to use. Now, in the aftercare program (6 months); I am able to continue my work here and begin to bring what I have learned out into the Portland recovery community to help others. Two important things I have learned here are; to be of service to others first and to live by spiritual principals. If you need help with addiction to drugs and/or alcohol... Please give Liberty Bay a call and let them help you find a better way of life!

Liberty Bay Recovery Center saved my life in so many ways. Before I came to Libery Bay, I was a very broken, selfish, manipulative, delusional alcoholic. I had little confidence, could not make healthy decisions, and could not function in life without a drink. For a long time, I tried to fix my problems alone, but failed miserably, time and time again. With the help of an amazing team of clinicians and a supportive therapeutic community, I was able to get to know myself on a different level than I ever could have imagined and met a new family within the TC. Im beyond grateful that Libery Bay was my first treatment program because I got the taste of the best medicine possible - love, support, strength and accoutability. I am currently a proud woman in recovery and couldnt have asked for a better gift this year and always. - Jamie Benthal

Liberty Bay has been quite a life changing experience. I have learned more about myself and how to deal with life on lifes terms and in a healthy way. I have learned how to be honest no matter what and have seen so many amazing things happen here. I cant even put into words how grateful I am to have the people, support, and relationships I have today. My life is what I make of it and I finally feel ready to enjoy this journey ahead.

Absolutely amazing! This place helped me get back on my feet and turn my life around ehen i got there January 30th I was broken and lost a shell of a person living day to day trying to get my next fix.. I Had no hope of getting sober nor did I want to. When I got there I was welcomed in to the most loving and caring community and was helped and brought to understand the root of my addiction and my thoughts and with all that my thoughts began to change. By the grave of god on the 28th of this month I will have 10 months sober. I owe my life to this place I could not have done it with out the love and support of the staff here or the people I met along the way.Thank you guys!

My expirience at Liberty Bay was and continues to be nothing but the best. What seperates this program from the rest is the fact that the clinical staff keeps the clients close for an extended period of time, roughly 9 months. I believe this promotes a higher success rate because it holds people accountable and allows them to have a safe trustworthy environment to express their difficulties and successes in early sobiety. From what Ive gathered it is imperitive to establish a firm foundation for recovery, and the loving but firm staff puts every ounce of their being into ensuring every client has a real shot at succeeding. Ive got nothing but love and respect for my peers, the clinical staff, and the amazing owners at Liberty Bay.
