I don't normally write reviews but it was important to me leaving Cottonwood to share my experience.

Cottonwood changed my life. I went into Cottonwood with mental health & substance abuse issues. I was at the end of myself and didn't know where to turn. The admissions staff (Chris in particular) were extremely helpful and took my calls at all hours of the day & night.

I was greeted very warmly by not only the staff but the incredible Cottonwood community of peers. There is something very special about the community & atmosphere here. I have made friendships that will last a lifetime. Our core group still connects almost everyday to support each other.

I felt that the staff deeply cared about my individual recovery- from the techs (Steve, Lindsey & Dylan are amazing!) to the therapists and nursing staff. Charles C. captivated me with every class he taught whether it was on a dream workshop, intimacy or the labyrinth. David M.'s classes were always thought provoking and his breath-work teachings are used in my life daily. Randy R. is the best therapist and group facilitator that I have ever had. He showed the proven way to a new life and challenged me everyday.

Cottonwood does a great job supporting the community alumni after discharge with an App and regular meetings. Thanks Grace for all you do!

I am blessed to have had the ability to enter into recovery at Cottonwood and left with the tools I needed to begin a new life.

Cottonwood saved my life, and I don't use that phrase lightly. I came in here believing there was no path forward and the staff, therapists, and other clients here showed me that I was worthy of love and worthy of a full, happy life. I will forever be grateful for this place and this community.

Whatever term you want to use -- treatment, recovery, rehab -- it's hard to review something like it in terms of stars and give an objective comment. Cottonwood is good at what it does, but it lacks in individual focus without strong self-advocacy from the attending patient. While you must go into recovery with an open mind, you must also have some prior knowledge about treatment, your past trauma, and your core belief systems so as to not get lost in the shuffle. They will work with you, but you must make sure you are heard by the staff and not waste a second of your time on campus. There is something truly healing about the desert and being around people with similar stories, but a facility cannot do the work for you. You must do the work yourself.

I had an amazing experience at Cottonwood.

I had an amazing experience at Cottonwood.
I have suffered through several traumas, abuse, depression, and anxiety. I was going to counselors once per week for about 2 years. By the grace of God, I was able to work with Cottonwood staff and the VA covered my visit through Community Care Network.
From preadmission through my last day, the team at Cottonwood did not disappoint. I completed over 300 hours of individual and group therapy, classes, and physical training sessions. If I had to mention each person there who impacted my life, I would have to list all of the counselors, nurses, PCFs, cafeteria workers, and support staff. I was treated with the utmost respect throughout my stay. I was able to make some major changes in my life based on what I learned there.
As for naysayers in reviews and otherwise, I say this. The residents I saw putting in the work and following the program at Cottonwood made notable changes during their stay. The people who complained about everything, and found reasons to fight with staff left the same people they were on day one. It's a lot of work, but worth it.
I have made some lifelong friends from my journey there. The alumni program is also excellent. I attend meetings regularly and receive a lot of correspondence via email, the app, and even a personal call from time to time.
If you have a family member in need of therapy or addiction recovery, I highly recommend Cottonwood.

I never leave reviews on here but this place saved my life and if you are feeling as hopeless as I was then please give this place a shot. I've been to multiple treatment centers over the past 10 years and this place hands down has changed my life!! That being said, of course I was skeptical at the beginning, but Nikki spent 2 hours on the phone with me, and I felt like she actually cared. In the past I felt like they just wanted my money or I was just another caller on this phone, but this time it felt different. Who knows, maybe it's because I was ready, or maybe because this place is special. Honestly I received better care from the medical staff (especially Tab) and the pysch team (shout out to Emily) then I have from any of my home providers. I felt like the entire team really listened to me. My therapist was patient with me, and made me feel safe, something I haven't felt at any of the other places I had been. I can't say thank you enough to everyone here. When it was my team to leave I cried, felt like I was leaving family, but I'm excited to venture out on my own a kid, be a mom, and a positive role model in my community. Thank you Cottonwood! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Thanks to Cottonwood, I can live the true life I have meant to live.
