My experience after 20 days being there has been a great experience. Jerry has been an amazing person to talk about the care the patient is receiving. He doesn’t talk to you about another number or patient, but about the human being he’s dealing with. I truly have appreciated my conversation with Jerry. A true class of an employee and person. Thank you

There doesn’t really seem like adequate words to describe how life changing my experience at MHC was. From stepping into residential to graduating from IOP I felt supported understood seen and heard the entire way. It became the first place I ever felt truly safe. The staff deeply cared about your recovery. I will be forever grateful to have found this program.

Ryan Witt is the man. Shows much love and care for clients which is very unique as an owner. Stevie Dukes is amazing. Great spot highly recommend. They have my back no matter what I’ve been through. Best staff I’ve had as a client, unreal facility and group facilitators. Lacy has done a great job running the program. MHC is the best mental health treatment Hands Down. They have great outings which is very unique as such as surfing and mma which has been huge for my mental health. If you know someone looking for treatment, not just saying this. Like foreal this is the spot.
