“The thing about recovery is its your whole life, a lot of people think its just plug the jug, stop using, just say no. It’s really a wake up call for your whole life. You have to change so many things in your life and deal with things you may have never dealt with. ”  Michael Speakman, Therapist

“One of the things I am really passionate about Calvary and what sets us apart from the rest is we integrate the spiritual aspect of recovery and we will meet the client where they are. We don’t force Christianity on anybody, if somebody wants to come in and they want to talk about spirituality but they don’t want to talk about Christ that is absolutely fine with us. The thing that sets apart Calvary is we will meet you where you are in your spiritual life, we will help you develop the emotional and coping skills that you need to live a life of recovery. Whether the person is recovering from chemical, dependency, gambling, or any other addictions. Calvary is a great resource and we want to get that message out there. There are so many people out there that need us and need our help. ”  Larry Soloman, therapist

“From the top down, there is a strong dedication and passion to do everything we possibly can to help the addict, alcoholic and the family members get everything they deserve and its amazing to see the staff come together and to pull together and make it happen for each individual as they come in. Here at Calvary Center, we understand that this disease of addiction is not a quick fix, this is a chronic, progressive, eventually fatal disease, if left untreated. We’re aware that the disease is not cured after 30 days. Our job here is to teach client the tools and skills that are necessary to treating the illness, one day at a time, for the rest of their life. ”  Jim Corrington, Therapist

“My first evening there, the counselor was very gracious and patient with me. She stayed there until 11pm at night because she knew I needed to talk that night. In any recovery you have to have a spiritual aspect, there’s something bigger out there and whatever your concept of that may be, it’s really important to not make yourself that God and to not depend on yourself. It’s truly a privilege to go there and when I get the opportunity I do go back and I say, “You don’t understand there are people that don’t get the opportunity to go that are suffering and so sick, and there is such an opportunity to learn about addiction and to help others in that addiction.”  Rachel

“I wasn’t used to having any structure in my life. My life was crazy and all over the place and so they had a routine every day, to get me to be responsible, to be there on time.”  Blake
