Pasadena Villa Psychiatric Residential Treatment Centers Smoky Mountain Lodge

Pasadena Villa I would highly recommend ! From the kitchen staff, to the techs, to the therapists, to the nursing staff & maintenance and everyone in between were a cross the board, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars! I was always treated with dignity, kindness & most of all respect! When I arrived I was majorly depressed and because of the staff , my hard work, & my peers, I'm Leaving happier than I have ever been! Thanks to you all, and keep up the greatness you all brought to the table for me! Sincerely, Brandy Boyd

My time at Pasadena Villa has been a great experience. I am particularly thankful for Lucinda, the techs, and my time learning and growing with the other clients. I haven't felt this balanced in years. They were also open to feedback when clients had concerns. The view is amazing, and the experience was great.

What an amazing experience. My stay here at Smoky Mountain Lodge has been life changing for me. I don’t have one negative thing to say about anything here during my stay. I came ready to dive deep and do the work and all the therapists, group leaders and techs provided me with everything I needed and the tools to take with me to better my life. The administration staff was wonderful. They helped me with anything I needed and they were always pleasant and supportive to my specific needs. The kitchen crew, maintenance staff and housekeeping staff were always working hard and keeping the lodge up and running in all the right places. The food was incredible. Plenty of it too. The buildings and all the facilities were in great condition. The furniture and decor were really comfortable and the bedrooms and bathrooms had all the right amenities. Housekeeping always kept everything clean as well as fresh sheets and pillow cases. I’m so grateful for all of those things that sometimes get overlooked. The views here and the surrounding area is absolutely beautiful. I always enjoyed our wellness walks and I couldn’t have asked for a better environment to be in while I worked a program of mental health recovery. I appreciate everyone at the lodge including the other clients. I learned a lot from them too and made plenty of supportive friends while I’ve been here.

The location is stunning and the meals are amazing. It can be difficult to get calls returned, as they can be understaffed and depending on the counselor. Management was super responsive when I emailed them, which was great. The lifelong membership to the Parents Group for children who've gone there has been 100% worth my child going there, both as support from other parents who understand the journey and from the awesome moderator Betty. In the end, it depends on the child's response to getting help, but I recommend SML. (Side note: I appreciate that my faith-based perspective has not been discredited by staff and help, and has even been encouraged at times)

Pasadena Villa saved my life. I am forever indebted to this place and the amazing staff. My stay was comfortable, the food was some of the best that I’ve ever had and all of therapists, nurses, psych techs, and utilities were available 24/7 day and night. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better community in my healing and recovery. I wish that I could take these people with me in the future wherever I go! Friends for life! ⛰️
