My husband had a wonderful experience here. We went back for a family picnic and it really felt like the people working here WANTED everyone to stay clean. Not to keep coming back for money. They seem like they truly care about giving people tools to do well. Loved the vibes.

I had an incredible experience at Harmony Treatment Center. The care and support I received were beyond my expectations. The staff helped me on my healing journey, not just physically but also spiritually. I truly felt understood and supported every step of the way. If you're looking for a place that offers holistic healing and genuine care, I highly recommend Harmony Treatment Center.

My 20-year-old son was admitted to medical detox followed by inpatient residential care at Harmony. He was there a total of 3 weeks. His severe addiction resulted in his inability to meaningfully engage at all in the two university classes he had enrolled in. He was doing fine at the time he enrolled in the classes, but he began to struggle with severe addiction issues at the beginning of the semester. I thought he had medically withdrawn prior to the deadline, but he was so unwell he didn’t successfully complete the steps needed to make this happen.

As a result, we needed Harmony to write a simple letter in support of his medical withdrawal, including the follow basic components:

a. General nature of your medical condition and how this has impacted your coursework.
b. Any dates in which you were under professional care and the provider’s license number.
c. A sentence stating your provider’s support for a full medical withdrawal for the semester. Example: For the reasons outlined above, I support a medical withdrawal from all classes for (student’s name) for (specific semester/s).
d. Date of your anticipated return to school. (If applicable.)

As a physician, I get asked to write such letters all the time and most physicians go out of their way to help patients get short term disability, get a refund for a trip, get out of jury duty, or withdraw from their courses due to severe illness.

The letter required could have been written by a therapist, physician or other medical professional. I emailed my son’s primary therapist who stated, “we can’t comment about your son’s behavior before or after his time here.” The physician also would not write a letter including the necessary components.

Physicians are required to take a “History of Present Illness” as well as a “Social History”. We paid $50,000 and my son was there 24 hours per day for 3 weeks. The physician should have asked in great detail the nature of his addiction, how it impacted his life, should have known he was a college student and absolutely should have spent enough time with my son to write this letter. His therapist should have as well.

Apparently, at Harmony, they don’t take the time to get to know their patients and not only are they not willing to go the extra mile, they are not willing to provide what is standard of care for any physician.

I left a detailed message regarding this issue with Harmony’s CEO Shane Hudson and he never returned my phone call. Several days later, I sent him an email requesting he respond to my voice message. He had a therapist who was not even involved in my son’s care call me back. He stated they would not provide the details required in the letter, just his dates of treatment and the types of therapy he received.

My son left Harmony one week early because he felt the care was “repetitive” and apparently it was not personal at all since no one there knew my son well enough to feel comfortable to write the simple letter we needed. As with my attempt to reach the CEO, my calls to the billing department regarding our expected refund all went unanswered. It took me 3 weeks to get someone in billing to call me back.

I checked myself into Harmony because alcohol had taken over my life. From the moment I contacted Harmony, I was treated with care and respect. The staff really cares about your recovery. It is definitely more than a job to them. A great many are themselves in recovery, so they are able to relate to your fears and your issues. The care I received was multifaceted to include addiction recovery, mental health care, physical care, and withdraw care.

The facilities were very nice and clean. When I got into the residential treatment area the room (cabin) was like a nice hotel room. This was a nice surprise. Being is Estes park was beautiful! The mountains surround you, elk and moose walk through the campus, peace and serenity surround you. There is always somewhere to walk. The staff takes clients on off campus hikes on trails in the area weekly. The food is incredible! Three meals a day, buffet style, addresses your nutrition.

They keep you busy! Recovery is work, and if you do this right it is worth it. Classes and study are regular, as well as AA meetings and NA meetings. They work very hard to give you the tools to stay sober. That being said, they give you time to have some fun.

Now that I am out, the alumni services and resources are top notch. They want you to maintain sobriety, so they work with you after you are discharged.

With all that being said, if you have an addiction problem, please call Harmony! It can literally save your life.

Harmony Foundation was essential in providing the tools, support and education for getting me and my family started on the road to recovery. It also has great alumni services that have helped me to build a sustainable life in recovery. Hope and healing flows out of it's pristine mountain campus. It's been 7 years since I went to Harmony. It was the turning point in getting my life on the right track. Thank You Harmony, you saved my life.

I walked through the doors of Harmony 11 years ago and haven't had a drop of alcohol since. I get tears in my eyes when I think of my amazing experience there. Such love, compassion, and understanding. I went in at my lowest and came out with such hope and renewed love for life. I enjoyed the program and the staff felt like family. I have heard horror stories about other rehabs, and I never had a bad experience. Any concerns I had were met with sympathetic ears. If you need help, I highly recommend this place.
