I highly recommend Live Again Detox for both detox and residential treatment. The facility is very comfortable and clean. There are plenty of small crafts, books, TVs, an Xbox, full kitchen - plenty to keep you occupied in your free time outside of group therapy sessions. The staff is amazing and really care about their clients’ success. The atmosphere and community here is amazing - really helped me out in a time of need.

This place was a life saver for me. When I arrived here in December of '24, I was out of options and didn't see a path forward. LAD provided a safe place where the outside world could come to a stand-still while I focused on taking small steps toward recovery. The staff and counselors went above and beyond. For the first time in a long time, I felt cared for, and like I could breathe. They helped me build a recovery plan and connected me with next steps and resources for my continued rehabilitation. Now 15 months sober, I am experiencing healing one day at a time while rebuilding a life I didn't think was possible. Will always be grateful for my time here.

My experience at Live Again Detox truly changed my life. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed, supported, and genuinely cared for. The staff, from top to bottom, are absolutely second to none. Every person I interacted with showed compassion, professionalism, and a real commitment to helping me succeed.
One of the most powerful parts of my time here was the sense of community. The connections I made with others made all the difference in the world. Being surrounded by people who truly understand what you’re going through creates a bond that’s hard to put into words. I’ve made lifelong friendships through this process, and that support means everything to me.
The techs—Leigh Anne, Chelsea, Nick, and Travis—played such a huge role in my growth. They didn’t just support me day to day, they taught me so many life skills that I’ll carry with me forever. I owe my new perspective on life to them. Thank you all! Travis, as my case manager, also went above and beyond to help make my professional life a seamless transition, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. My therapist, Chris, made a lasting impact as well and helped me see things in a new way that I never had before. I truly owe a great deal of my metal health progress to the effort and work he put into me that will continue to help me heal and grow as an individual with continued work.
The nursing staff—Shelbee, Kelley, Chris, Rae, and everyone else I may not have mentioned—took incredible care of me, especially in those early days. They made a difficult process as comfortable as possible, and I’ll always be grateful for that level of care and attention.
Another thing that really opened my eyes was the speakers they brought in to share their stories. Hearing real people talk about their journeys showed me that recovery is truly possible with discipline, dedication, and the right plan.
In such a short amount of time, I learned countless life skills that I know will stay with me for the rest of my life. Live Again Detox didn’t just help me get through detox—they helped me build a foundation for a better future. I’m beyond grateful for everything they’ve done for me. If you’re looking for a place that truly cares and can change your life, this is it. Nothing but LOVE to LAD family!
