I am indebted and owe my life to this place… it saved me.

Trudy - UK

I came to Camino Recovery suffering from PTSD. I was in a bad way and I am leaving very content, peaceful and with much more confidence. I am very grateful to all the staff who have helped me throughout my stay. So helpful in so many ways. Thank you Camino Recovery for showing me the light.

Teresa

Camino Recovery and all involved have been wonderfully kind and supportive throughout my stay. I will be leaving with a newfound confidence I didn’t know I had, an understanding of who I am, and the tools needed to keep me on my path to recovery, and for that, I am truly grateful. Thank you to each and every one of you (and that includes Hugo too!)

Julia

Changed my life and my family forever. Thank you for saving me.

Lucy (21 years old)

Today is the day for me to say goodbye. I feel happy. I feel sad. I feel anxious.

The days here were special…

I was full of anger, and I was frightened. I was sad. Something changed. You all helped me to find the courage to open my eyes and start questioning me. I feel happy because I can look into the mirror and see my eyes smiling to life.

I am not alone, and I never will be. I deserve to ask for help, and I deserve not to be judged. I need to take care of myself and be able to take care of others. I understand this. Thanks to you all.

Eloisa

Thank you! Thank you for everything! Thank you!

Lucy - UK (Family member of client- after participation in Family workshop)

Camino Recovery changed my life! I was surrounded by darkness and pain before I came here. Their comprehensive programme and incredible staff provided a safe and welcoming environment to get some real work done. I have learnt so much about myself and others and gained tools and wisdom that will help carry me forward on my journey with light and love.

Ruth

This week I have been blown away by Camino Recovery and the family programme. The caring and skills demonstrated by the Camino Recovery team, and by the dignity, respect and kindness afforded to the clients and all participants.

John - Clients Parent (re: Family Week)

When I arrived at Camino Recovery, I was on the verge of losing the relationships that were most precious to me. After treatment here, I am transformed. Once again, I am able to feel emotions long forgotten, I am committed to a journey of recovery, and I’m emotionally available to the ones around me I most love. Coming here was one of the best decisions and moments in my life.

Ronald

I came to Camino Recovery with my life looking like a mess. I was unhappy, depressed, and totally out of control. I had a hard time dealing with and understanding life and its purpose.

During my journey, I have learned how to clean up my messes and was given tools for how to enjoy life and what it’s really about. I have learned how to properly laugh again and make connections with those around me. I got my family back.

This was the best decision I could ever have made.

Julie (21 years old)

We dropped Mark off at the airport as he is away for two months doing volunteer work in a game park, and then hopefully another 3 months around the continent, all depending on Covid. The Mark we said goodbye to is the best Mark for at least the last 6 years. He is really the best he can be; open, continuously in a positive and happy mood, nothing is an issue, very sociable and interacting with us, full of energy, disciplined, committed, sensitive, and also clear about what he wants. He is a delight.

You have been so instrumental in his recovery. Without your dedication, commitment, love and professionalism, this would never have happened. We are so grateful, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You have changed our lives as a family, our lives as parents, and his life as a human being, forever, and for the best. Of course, he worked hard himself and went all the way, but if he hadn’t met you, we are not sure if he would have been able to achieve what he has. We look with confidence into the future, without being naive. He will face challenges and setbacks, but he learned how to handle those.

As you probably know, he picked up school again and graduated with grades. Next summer, he will start university at home.

We will never forget you, thank you so much!

Marks Parents

I have just completed my 30 day Program at Camino, I have found my stay to be very satisfying and the treatment was second to none from Yoga in the morning to group therapy with Ameet who i would like to say was absolutely brilliant and made me feel completely at ease and able to open up. Everything was so relaxed in a wonderful environment.
