Lumiere Healing Centers

I don’t usually write reviews, but Lumiere Healing Centers is something I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life. Before May 2024, I was living alone in a trailer in the middle of nowhere in Kentucky. I was depressed, suicidal, and stuck in a cycle of drinking and smoking every night just to fall asleep and shut everything off. That was my life. Everything changed the day I made the call. Lumiere admitted me and I spent 10 days in detox before being invited into their 30-day residential program. From day one, I felt something different. The facility was clean, structured, and safe. The staff, the BHTs, nurses, and counselors, genuinely cared. And I have to shout out Chef Laura, whose meals somehow made even the hardest days a little better. But what really stood out was the camaraderie. The connections you build with other people going through the same battle… that’s something you can’t replicate. When I left, I was being pushed toward a halfway house, but I knew I needed a different path. I asked my mom to take a chance on me, and she did. Since then, everything has changed. I got a job at Kroger delivering groceries. I met an incredible woman, Alexis, and now we have two kids together. We’ve got a dog named Zuko, a cat named Kitty, our own 2-bedroom apartment, and I pay my own bills. I’ve got my own vehicle. A real life. It’s not perfect, nothing ever is, but when I look at where I came from compared to where I am now, I’m beyond grateful. And I know for a fact I wouldn’t be here without Lumiere. They give you the tools. They give you the support. They give you a real chance. What you do with it is up to you. I’ll forever be thankful for this place.

I am a graduate and cannot say enough about the quality of care and dedication of the staff. Excellent recovery enrichment. The facility and food are top notch. They have exactly what is needed for an entire life changing experience. I have a totally different view on the outcome of my life. Thank you to all involved from the bottom of my heart. Russ W

Lumiere has literally saved my life. There staff are there to help in your healing journey. Wonderful people. From the first time I stepped into Lumiere I knew I was in the right hands. I’m still on my healing journey, but I know with all the help I received and still receiving at Lumiere I can do this. Thank you to everyone at Lumiere.

I went to Lumiere Healing Center in West Chester- seeking desperate help to overcome my addiction to alcohol. I had a very good experience at Lumire. I stayed at Lumire for treatment which was a little over 1 month long. I left with much needed sobriety under my belt - along with feeling at peace with myself. I left feeling stronger, and able to re-enter the world using my gained “tools” to keep up the pace of no longer drinking. I currently am continuing outpatient treatment with Lumiere along with consistently engaging in the Fellowship of AA. I’m thankful to be sober- I feel better in control of my life and feel very good about that! Life is better without the agony of addiction pulling you down. No question about that!

I’ve been to 3 other recovery places before coming to Lumiere. I have to say, they are the best by far. With the kindest staff that actually care about each individual. You actually see the nurse practitioner for the right care, a therapist to help guide you through the process, really listen to you. Hannah at the front desk is the glue of the place, super sweet. If you really are struggling with recovery, and need a really good place to get help, where both staff and patients are kind, Lumiere is the place for you!
