I can truly say that empower recovery was there when I really needed help ! Even my own Dr couldn't get me in their program ,that the clinic I go to offered. I would have been in full withdrawal before I could get even seen . It all started with one phone call. They are truly there to help you ! My therapist , Dan , is all about helping you ! I'm so grateful to him and Empower ! They treat the mindset just as much as the body .

Finding a good therapist is hard and crucial. Empower Recovery made it easy. Everybody I met along the way to even meeting a therapist was so incredible, sweet, informative and open to hearing your thoughts. They really care about you at Empower Recovery and it shows in more way than one.
