Abusive. I have friends that went here and were neglected, tortured, kidnapped, isolated. I went to the west location. They’re both run by the same company that ran island view RTC, which was notoriously abusive. Please do your research. Don’t send your kids here.

Well, where do I start. They strip you of all your rights, and only try to get students to see everything in the world from their point of view. Opinions don t matter. I m traumatized from staying at solstice. I was there from April 27, 2016 to November 26, 2017. I was placed on con block, arms, and...

Solstice East is a great RTC. It not only helped our daughter, but also our family. The staff and therapists at Solstice East are the best!! They make everyone feel comfortable. As anything in life, you only get out what you put in. If you put the work in, and continue to work on yourself, you ...

This program has saved many lives. The staff are some of the most caring, highly trained professionals I've ever had the pleasure to meet. If you're considering which program to get help for your child from, Solstice East definitely should be at the top of your list. They know their stuff. The campu...

I am a former employee of Solstice and see both the good and the bad in the program, so will give my best to leave a fair review.

So Solstice has worked wonders for many of the teens who have been in the program, however it is not a great fit for all troubled teens. Their substance abuse program ...

The staff and management of Solstice East did incredible and permanent damage to my family. At the advice of a well-respected educational consultant and a therapist at a wilderness program, we sent our daughter there in 2018. They offered us a contract for $12,000 per month which included treatment,...

Our family was really struggling and we did not know where to turn to find help for our daughter. When we made our first visit to Solstice East to see if they would be a good fit, we were instantly impressed. The staff is incredibly understanding, supportive, and knowledgeable.

Solstice s Substance Abuse Program is completely scare tactic and ineffective. I left Solstice with even WORSE drug issues than I started with.
The girls constant bragging of their drug use in "SA," a group that s supposed to be a safe space, influenced me to return home and use hard drugs, (co...

The staff truly care and want to help even the admission staff are so nice. They pair you up with a Big Sister, a resident who has been at solstice and knows the ropes to help guide you through the program. The teachers pushed me to graduate high school with straight A's. I love the Solstice Family....

I truly love coming to work every day. I love working with the students and all of the activities we get to do together. There are of course challenging moments, just like any mental health job, but the pros absolutely outweigh the cons. The stress can get exhausting at times but if I ever need to t...

I graduated from solstice in June 2016 and the nightmares have finally dwindilled down to once a week. In my time out I have been doing great, but with no thanks to solstice. My traumas were never addressed, and I ve had to work though them with a therapist of my own. Solstice is one of those trauma...

i'm a resident at solstice and if you are actually considering sending your child here, the google reviews aren't really helpful you should set up a zoom call talking to students and ask them about the program yourself. most the stuff on here isn't legit.

It s been many years since my time at this facility. Unfortunately I was not too impressed with this program. I am a college graduate...but it took so much for me to get here. I feel like my time at solstice hindered my academic abilities. I was not at all prepared for college. In fact, as soon as I...

In all honesty, I am brainwashed from this place. I used a different name to write this review because I don't want people knowing I went here and I also do care about some of the staff here and don't want to hurt them.
Their academic program set me miles and miles behind other kids my age. They di...

Solstice East was a lifesaver for our family. If you are even considering an RTC, then your family is obviously hurting and sending a child to an RTC is the most heart wrenching thing to do - both for the parents and the child. For the girls at Solstice, the program is not easy. It is for some the...
