Client Testimonials

My name is Mike S. and I am a resident of New Jersey. After many years of sobriety I relapsed. I was again trapped in the miserable abyss of my active alcohol addiction and once again I was unable to stop my drinking.

I asked several friends of mine about rehabs. They recommended the Palm Beach Institute. I was fortunate enough to be admitted to in July of 2009 for 30 days. The facility was clean and comfortable. The staff went above and beyond to facilitate my journey to a stable foundation in recovery. Their program of recovery was simple, straightforward and made sense to me. They provided the counseling, tutelage and lessons I needed to get back to a sober life, one day at a time. I am eternally grateful for their help.

If you are willing to leave the misery of your addiction, I highly recommend the Palm Beach Institute.

Thank you again Palm Beach Institute and God bless.


Six months prior to my arrival at the Palm Beach Institute, I went to a NJ rehab reluctantly. There were over 125 people there, and it was very demoralizing. Even though the food was great and I was able to follow directions well, I was not like the people there. They had money, family, houses, had it all. When I left there, I drank within 12 hours. Six months later, January 14th 2008, I was escorted to the Palm Beach Institute. When I came to, I really did not know if I had money, family, houses or anything for that matter. I just did not want to live anymore.

My wife had a decision to make. By the grace of God, she got Frank Walls phone number from a doctor that was trying to treat me for drinking. By that night, Jan 14th, I was delivered to the Palm Beach Institute. There were only 20 people there which was very helpful for me. Personal attention was first and foremost a key to my recovery. All the counselors were extremely knowledgeable. Together with EMDR and recovery methods, they helped me look at my life, my actions and problems.

Midway through my admittance, I had a spiritual awakening during my early morning walk. Something came over me. That obsession, desire for drugs and alcohol was lifted. I became more attentive, learned to meditate and, most of all, realized that I was not alone anymore. The Palm Beach Institute helped save my life and I will always be grateful for that. As my two-year anniversary approaches, I hope to visit the Palm Beach Institute and share my experience, strength and hope with all that have made it through your doors.

God Bless,

Joseph S.
