“I am the mother of a 16 year old daughter who is on the autism spectrum, suffers from borderline personality disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and substance abuse. I searched for several months for a facility that could make a positive impact on my daughter. In one word, Ascend is AMAZING. I know first-hand how scary it can be to turn your child over to someone else, but Ascend is not someone else. It is a well-rounded group of individuals who work as a team to accomplish a common clinical goal. I am very grateful for the coping skills and family-like support the team was able to provide our family. I would highly recommend this facility to any family struggling with a child who has mental illness and/or substance abuse issues.”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ascend! Everyone from Effie to all the mentors, therapists, Dan the chef, teachers, etc were amazing in the care of our son. We were feeling very lost and in a sad place when we entered and the way we feel now is 100% better. My child has learned so much about himself, gained confidence, and is ready to tackle life in a positive way. The house is so inviting and warm, the food amazing, the therapy the best we have ever been exposed to, programming and activities excellent. Ascend will always have a special place in my whole family’s ♥️ hearts.”
