Limitations on treatment approaches were the most commonly cited weakness, with alumni characterizing the program as too focused on the 12-Steps or inadequate for dual diagnosis treatment.</p> <blockquote> <p>Counseling Options: 3.3/5<br /> Holistic Offerings: 2.8/5</p> </blockquote> <p>Three of the four asked about the staff’s level of training and experience were positive and comments <strong>represented staff as friendly and supportive</strong>.

Reviews tended to echo those on Rehabs.com, including four who noted that the program was geared toward younger clients (teens, not residents in their 20’s).<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small></p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>Of the 14 loved ones polled by Rehabs.com, 11 provided positive feedback for Hazelden Plymouth and three were critical. Twelve were polled more extensively, with results mostly in line with alumni. One exception was a <strong>lower average rating for family programming</strong> (4.8 stars from alumni and 3.9 from loved ones).</p> <p>About one-quarter characterized the treatment overall as <strong>too inflexible, not individualized</strong>. Most reported that the cost was high, but worth it.</p> <blockquote> <p>Counseling Options: 3.6/5<br /> Dual Diagnosis Treatment: 3.6/5</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>The staff and facility’s maintenance received the most compliments</strong>, although more than one reviewer expressed concerns in each area.

They tended to agree that the “frontline” staff were committed to supporting clients’ recovery. Nevertheless, two reported inadequate training and one Glassdoor reviewer concurred with alumni and parent perspectives on the facility’s <strong>unpreparedness to treat co-occurring mental health disorders</strong>.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small> A representative Indeed reviewer described coworkers and clients as “wonderful” to work with, but staff as overworked.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-3"><sup>[3]</sup></a></small></p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Hazelden does not publish its fees online.
