Brighton Recovery Center – South Ogden, Utah

My time with Brighton has been life changing to say the least. This was my second time going through a treatment center and the difference was night and day. This time around I was able to get down to some root causes and truly get an understanding of what is going on in my head. The path ahead is much clearer after doing the 45 days at the monastery ( which is a beautiful and awesome place that really allows you to disconnect and allows you a safe place to process and heal.) I learned that connection was huge to my recovery thanks to my therapist Ashley and the connections I made there were crucial and meaningful. I still have a group of friends that I made there, that we get together and do sober activities. I can thank the program for exposing me to a community of like minded people, who understand, including staff and therapist. When I first got there I couldn’t stop to think how did I let myself end up at this point, but the day I walked out of the monastery my attitude was a complete 180, I was grateful to have experienced that and enjoyed finding myself again. They really do set you up for success. In addition, I had the blessing of working with Mr. Donny Wheat, who is the liaison for military clients. I can’t stress enough how beneficial it was having Mr. Wheat advocate for me, and provide a transparent communication with my unit of how treatment was going. It honestly gave my unit more of an understanding and allowed them to trust the process and program that Brighton has. At the end of the day our employers want us back to work and healthy right? But having Mr. Wheat allowed the process to go at the right pace. At my previous treatment center there was no such person. All in all Brighton has provided for me a fresh start in every aspect. We all have flaws, but they don’t have to define us, my 45+ days ( now that I am at their sober living facility, which is equally great) has made me realize that my flaws can be used to better myself. As I am writing this I am working on close to 90 days sober and I have every intention to just keeping looking forward one day at time, and I can thank the folks at Brighton for that.

Had a great experience at Brighton! I stayed inpatient for 45 days at Ogden location aka the monastery. Super nice place, very clean, great food, awesome people. The classes were very informative. I also did their php and iop aftercare program which took 4 months to complete. They have a really nice community center with a gym, pool table, ping pong, shuffleboard, and free lattes. I would highly recommend brighton to anybody.

I recently returned from inpatient recovery at Brighton. I loved it there. It is a nice clean environment with very friendly staff. The rooms are so nice and the view is incredible. I loved having a schedule and I learned so much! It changed my life. My therapist, Jenni, was perfect for me. I highly recommend Brighton for your recovery!

I just want to thank everyone on the Brighton team for never giving up on people and for making such a difference in this world! I especially want to acknowledge Josh Hall, who is a truly selfless, courageous, genuine, caring and wise individual! Josh made an immensely deep impact on our family. He and the staff at Brighton are faithfully devoted to the highest level of care for every single patient!! They deliver when it comes to mental health, disrupting disease states and creating awakenings that provide so much light in the smothering darkness of substance use disorder!!! Forever grateful!!!!!!!
