Pasadena Villa Psychiatric Residential Treatment Centers Smoky Mountain Lodge

I had a great experience at Pasadena Villa. The staff were phenomenal. I made great strides while I was here. It is tough work, but worth doing. I loved the group and one on one therapy paired with animal therapy and rec therapy. I am hopeful for the first time in a long time.

Wonderful experience, I gained a tremendous foundation for my mental health from attending the groups as well as individual therapy sessions, I also enjoyed the balance from art classes as well as meditative sessions as well as animal therapy; before attending Pasadena, I tried to heal myself through my own efforts, for many many years nothing helped, I was stubborn and had negative views on therapy as well as therapy centers, but after staying at the lodge, I gained so much understanding and focus on my mental health which helped start me in a brand new path and journey; I’m still having difficult days and so for me it’s important to journal and review key concepts to my situation that I learned from the lodge to help me in my healing journey, again, I’m not perfect but I’m much more hopeful and optimistic because of all the experiences I had there; I tend to be more proactive and want to learn and so that has helped me a lot; my next steps is to continue with consistency while working with an individual counselor from home. I am truly blessed to have gone to Pasadena and they truly have impacted my life more than any effort that I could’ve done on my own, for that I’m grateful.

As an employee, I have grown to see Pasadena's motto taken seriously. It takes a Villa. We truly have a dream team of rockstars who all work hard to reach the common goal - giving our residents the best care we possibly can. I can personally say that I know I can go to my leadership and feel comfortable being honest. I can go to my co-workers for help or to offer help without judgement passed. I can be me. Come join the dream team!

Since I’ve been at Pasadena Villa everyone have been very helpful supportive. The staff are amazing the food is great. And the therapist really take there time in working with you to make sure you are getting the CORRECT MEDS, CARE, SUPPORT SYSTEM, INCLUDING SIGNING UP FOR THE ALUMNI GROUP THAT AWAY WHEN YOU COMPLETE THE PROGRAM YOU HAVE THE SUPPORT YOU NEED FOR WHEN YOU LEAVE. I’m excited to say that I’ll be staying longer than what i expected because they want to make sure your needs are met correctly so that they won’t have to see you again
