Kinder in the Keys Treatment Center

When I arrived at Kinder, I really didnt know what to expect. Nor did I even know what I was looking for. But Kinder far exceeded any expectations I had. Not only was the facilities beautiful and very homey feel to it, the staff and their support is nothing short of amazing. There is truth behind the saying "Trust the Process" because Kinder in the Key's has developed a great program to help you through anything. The self growth you go through is life changing, the connections and friendships you make are amazing.

At the beginning of this year I was in full crisis mode. I knew I needed to find somewhere that could really help me, not just keep me overnight and send me home. I began searching for a treatment center that wasn’t also an addiction center as I have been living with those who struggled with addiction my whole life. I found Kinder in the Keys after searching and saw that it was also women only. I found the courage to go and it has been life changing. I have struggled with severe depression most of my adult life. I did therapy; took medications and nothing was helping. Spending a whole month dedicated only to healing, learning and growing helped set me up for success. I loved group therapy, my individual therapist was so intuitive, and I made great friends in the month I was there. I’ll forever be grateful for my time there and helping me get back to living.

I recently completed 30 days at Kinder in the Keys for severe depression and anxiety. If you are looking for a treatment center that deals specifically with mental health issues and does NOT wraparound substance abuse, this is the place for you. The journey is long and difficult but rewarding. 6-8 hours of therapy a day 7 days a week is no joke. The therapists here are top notch and have a unique ability to work together to "crack your shell" in order to find out where all your challenges are stemming from. Maryanna, Jessica, Jaime, Cassie and Heather all worked together to challenge my thought processes and get me on the right track. Group therapy is exceptional as it gives you the opportunity to learn from others. I always felt safe sharing anything either in group or in my individual sessions.

The tech staff are exceptional! "Momma Ivy" was exactly what I needed at night when it was time to wind down from a long day of therapy. She provided the loving support you need when being so far from your family. Janae and Brittany were also very supportive.

There are some bumps in their policies and procedures as with any treatment facility. However, if you focus on your therapy and use your coping skills to deal with these procedural bumps, you will definitely have a successful stay. If you are confused on where to start to unravel your mental health issues, Kinder will provide you with a pathway to start your journey to being healthy.

Thank you Kinder Staff
