Awakenings By The Sea

After Calling 37 different treatment centers, I was led to Awakenings. I had lost my husband from cancer after 36 years together and the grief and pain engulfed me. I relapsed after nine years and two months. It was obvious I was not immune to alcoholism. From the moment I put that first call into this treatment center I was treated with such love, dignity, and respect. Chloe, one of the techs answered the phone and immediately showed me such compassion. He then patched me over to Keith the intake specialist. He was incredibly kind, and had absolutely no condemnation for me. When I walked into the doors, I could just sense there was peace in this treatment center. I cannot say enough about the staff. From the Director, (Tabatha)all the way down to the housekeeping(Jean), The incredible, wise nursing staff (Deb, and several more) and the wonderful cook (Von), each member has this beautiful ability to be gracious, kind, and understanding. Many facilitators, And counselors (Vicki, Robyn, Tabatha, and Marvel) each shed such love, and grace upon our hearts, that it makes the journey that much easier. My counselor in particular (Marvel) had this amazing ability to know which days I needed a little push, and when I needed more compassion than others. She laid out a treatment plan for me that made sense and would help walk me through my journey to sobriety and a healthy life. If you’re struggling, and you need help to journey into sobriety, this is the place for you. There is no judgment here. Many of the staff have been through some of the very same things that you might be going through. That gave me such a sense of security to know that they understood me. So no Matter where you are, if you need help to begin your journey to sobriety, health, and a way to learn to love yourself, please, give them a call, you won’t regret it!!

I highly recommend Awakenings. I stayed for 90 days and got SO much out of it. I learned how to love myself, relapse prevention, what my triggers are, coping skills, dealt with trauma, guilt and shame, what addiction really looks like and means, how to communicate better, skills to help me deal with damage I have done to friends and family. The list goes on. Everyone of the staff members are amazing and you get group processing time daily as well as individual counseling sessions. Walks on the beach, community outings, AA meetings daily. I found a women’s only inpatient to be more helpful for me because I felt I could honestly talk about any and all issues that I needed to discuss. With full sister support. I hope to only come back to visit but should I ever need help with alcohol again, this is the place I would choose.

Awakenings saved my life! I am forever grateful to the recovery program, process, counseling, and staff. If you're struggling, this home of supportive women was my path to Sobriety. I trust & loved the staff here to help me process through my difficult issues. The facility was wonderful and where else can you recover and enjoy the beautiful Oregon coast! Thank you to Awakening's by the Sea. Debbie

My 30 day stay has been wonderful. The counselors and all of the staff including the chef were all so supportive. My drug addiction will always be with me. My counselor developed a plan specifically for me. I learned so much from the process groups. I learned to speak up and share with my sisters. There was truly unconditional ❤ love. My counselor was so helpful with my after care. Im sad to leave, but I have another journey to start. Thank you everyone for your support.
