Mountainside Treatment Center

I have been able to stay sober for 7.5 years because of the foundation I received at Mountainside. Choosing this treatment center was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Mountainside’s philosophy focuses on treating the body, mind, and soul, offering practices such as yoga, meditation, and acupuncture. For me, it was a place where I could fully focus on my recovery in a safe, comfortable, and deeply supportive environment. Mountainside also has an outstanding alumni outreach program. The alumni department truly cares about the long-term success of former clients. They organize wonderful activities and periodically reach out just to check in and see how I’m doing, which has meant more to me than I can express.

So grateful to have found Mountainside. My husband was fortunate enough to start his sobriety journey with mountainside and learned so much. He was able to participate in many activities ( yoga, hikes, accupuncture, sound baths) in addition to his one on one therapy sessions and drug and alcohol courses. The knowledge he brought home benefits not only himself but for our family. Very grateful for the staff! I was able to connect with a wonderful therapist through mountainside and participated in a session with her and my husband. We were able to discuss worries, issues and set a plan on how we are going to navigate our day to day responsibilities ( work, kids) while still focusing on my husband’s sobriety journey. Sundays I was able to visit with our two kids. They make the facility feel calm, peaceful and comfortable for kids. They were able to stay occupied and play/color with their dad during the few hour visits. Couldn’t say more positive things about this facility. We are just so grateful.

Mountainside Treatment Center was a life changing experience for me. I have been struggling to stay sober since my first time in treatment back in 2018. I have been able to put together long stints of soberity and unfortunately more than a few relapses. This latest came in April of 2025. After going into detox I made the best decision of my life by going back to the place that gave me the tools to put together 18 months. When I arrived I was going to stay for a "tune up" and spend 2 weeks. Within a week I knew I had to stay so I put in 5 weeks. My therapist Krystyna was the best and I continued to have the same with my therapist in IOP Lauren. I can go on and on about all the great things about Mountainside. I continue to stay involved through the amazing Alumni program on a monthly basis. The open AA meetings on Friday night are great. It says a lot about a place when you look forward to going back to visit on a monthly basis ! THANK YOU MOUNTAINSIDE for giving me the tools for a happy healthy life. 🙏🏽💪🏽❤️

Ask anyone or read the reviews almost all will tell you how this place is life changing. This rehab truly saved my life. From the moment I arrived, I was treated with compassion, dignity, and genuine care. The staff understand addiction on a deep level—not just as a condition, but as a human experience—and that made all the difference in my recovery. The program is structured, supportive, and focused on real change. Therapy sessions were meaningful, honest, and challenging in the best way. I was given the tools to understand my addiction, address the root causes, and build a strong foundation for long-term sobriety. Every counselor, therapist, and staff member showed unwavering commitment and encouragement throughout the process. Best staff ever—without question. They didn’t just treat my addiction, they treated me. They saw me at my lowest and never gave up on me, even when I struggled to believe in myself. Every day, they showed up with patience, honesty, and real compassion. I felt genuinely cared for, not judged, and that made all the difference. I owe a huge part of my recovery to these incredible people.

I cannot speak highly enough about this place and the staff who work here. Truthfully, I credit Mountainside with giving me my life back. Mountainside was the 4th rehab I went to, but the 1st one that "worked." I was severely addicted to opiates (as well as alcohol and other drugs) for as long as I can remember. My entire adult life was dominated by the consequences that come with living with a crippling and untreated addiction - broken relationships, financial problems, even incarceration, just a totally unmanageable life where I couldn't seem to get anything right. My family were heartbroken and at a total loss as to what to do. I had lost the trust of virtually everyone close to me. I didn't think I could ever get sober. After so many failed attempts, I figured that my life was just gonna be a tragedy. Mountainside changed all of that. I've been sober for over 2 years now (as of writing this). I don't know why this place worked so well for me (and for a lot of other alcoholics and addicts I know), but something changed for me a few weeks into my time at Mountainside. I'm not guaranteeing it'll work for you, but in an industry that's dominated by failure (long term sobriety rates for people attending the absolute best rehabs can often be dismally low), Mountainside does seem to get a lotta people sober / produces a lot of success stories. I am in touch with about a dozen people who've come through this program and all of us got real sobriety from it. From client services to the clinicians to nursing, the staff are absolute legends. So I really can't endorse this place enough. Don't quit until you try Mountainside. Living in active addiction/alcoholism is exhausting. If you're reading this then its probably not fun anymore either. Oh and if you're struggling with the 12 step / AA focused rehabs, then you really have to try Mountainside. I was so done with hearing about AA - every rehab I had been to absolutely forced it on me. One place had us doing 4 AA meetings a day 🫩🫩. 12 step / AA is obviously a part of the program at Mountainside, but it is actually just that - 1 small part of a super wide ranging and diverse program. This is the only place I've been to that was truly "holistic" in it's approach.
