Grateful and thankful. I cannot express enough how much Changes has helped me and my family. Their support and care have been invaluable throughout this journey. We are forever grateful for their assistance.
★★★★★Thank you to everyone at Changes who helped my daughter through this difficult time. They not only helped her but kept in constant contact with me, updating me on her progress and checking up on how I was doing.
★★★★★I had a close friend who was having a hard time and we sent him to Changes. Admission staff was polite, friendly and professional. The counsellors were very well trained and professional.
★★★★★Tonight I attended a very informative support group hosted by Sheryl. Thank you so much for all the support Changes offers to family members. Keep up the amazing, life-changing work. We absolutely salute you!
★★★★★Safe, confidential and thorough treatment helped me through a very difficult period in my life. Changes provided me with tools and skills to manage my illness and introduced me to a supportive network of people.
★★★★★My life was spiralling out of control. The moment I contacted Changes, they offered immediate support. After just one month, I found hope and direction I hadn't felt in years. Forever grateful to the team.
★★★★★Omw!!! I have absolutely no idea how to express my gratitude! My son initially went to another rehab. They couldn't contain him there and he was sent to a state hospital, where he was restrained.
★★★★★If Amy W wanted to go to Rehab then it would have been Changes! I had no idea what rehabilitation and treatment was but when I arrived, I didn't realise how broken and in need of repair I was.
★★★★★I'm proud of the family we are at Changes and the work we do because it comes from our heart and care. Due to that care, we change lives. Changes Treatment Centre is where we make change without fear.
★★★★★On the 7th February 2007, I found a place that cared as much for me and my recovery as I possibly do today. I met with Sheryl and completely removed all the masks I had worn for years.
★★★★★A friend of mine was at his lowest point and after going through Changes, his life has turned around completely. Thank you, Changes, for all the help you provided him during his recovery.
★★★★★My son was on the brink of destruction, but Changes stepped in. Their comprehensive approach and dedicated staff transformed him into a person I never thought I'd see again. Thank you for giving me my son back.
