Sanctuary Recovery Centers, Phoenix, Arizona

I am incredibly grateful for my experience at Sanctuary. I will complete 90 days in the program next week, and when I look back at where I was when I arrived compared with where I am today, the difference is honestly… remarkable.When I first arrived at Sanctuary, I had just graduated from a residential treatment program. Although I was proud of completing residential treatment and maintaining my sobriety, I was uncertain about what I wanted or needed to do next. I had several medical and mental health issues that needed attention, along with serious life circumstances that were causing me tremendous stress and uncertainty. I knew I wanted to continue moving forward in my recovery, but I wasn’t completely sure what that path would look like.Sanctuary gave me the support, structure, guidance, and encouragement I needed to begin putting the pieces of my life back together.Throughout my time here, the entire staff has been incredibly helpful in guiding me through not only my recovery, but also the practical challenges that come with rebuilding your life. Through the groups, therapy, individual support, and connections to outside resources, I was able to address the medical and mental health issues I had been struggling with and begin getting my affairs in order.I was also able to enroll in the LIFT program at St. Mary’s, and I now have housing lined up for when I leave Sanctuary’s sober living. Those may sound like simple accomplishments, but for me, they represent important steps toward building a stable and productive life.I especially want to recognize Phil, Michelle, Amit, Tiffany, and my therapist, Anna. Each of you has played an important role in helping me navigate this chapter of my life. I appreciate the time, patience, understanding, encouragement, and genuine support you have shown me.I also want to recognize the entire Sanctuary staff. Recovery is not something that happens because of one person. It takes a team, and I truly feel that I had a team supporting me here.When I arrived, I had a lot of uncertainty and several serious issues that I didn’t know how I was going to handle. Today, I feel like my life is in a completely different place. My sobriety is strong, I have a clearer direction, my immediate future is beginning to take shape, and most importantly, I have hope.Sanctuary didn’t simply give me a place to continue my recovery. It helped me learn how to start putting my life back together and take the steps necessary to move forward.I am leaving Sanctuary next week with 90 days in the program, a stronger foundation in my recovery, important resources and relationships, and a vision for the future that I have been dreaming about for a very long time.I will always be grateful to the people at Sanctuary who helped me get to this point. Thank you for believing in me, supporting me, and helping me see that there really is a better path forward. Thank you, Sanctuary.

The staff here were very helpful and caring! They do a good job providing you with support while encouraging you to grow! Howard,Phil and Shannon were the ones who helped me the most and I would recommend this place to… anyone.

Hands down the best most caring people operate this program and the level of care that they offer here is A+ I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND COMING HERE TO BEGIN YOUR RECOVERY!

Whoops wrong facility 😊

Sanctuary Recovery Centers has a caring and dedicated team that genuinely wants to help people succeed in recovery. The staff provides a supportive, respectful, and structured environment while connecting clients with… the resources they need to build a better future. If you’re looking for a program that values accountability, compassion, and long-term recovery, Sanctuary is a great place to start.

Since becoming a client I have been treated with utmost respect . Sanctuary recovery center has very knowledgeable and friendly staff with attention to detail for specific client needs for people who are battling… addiction great location in the valley. With five star gourmet meals served everyday for lunch 🤤 I recommend this company if you are interested in recovery and battling your addiction.

I’m currently at Sanctuary Recovery Centers, and honestly it’s felt like home since I got here. My therapist Michelle is awesome. She somehow got me to open up even when I really didn’t want to, and she’s helped me work… through a lot of my trauma and grief. She’s super supportive and you can tell she genuinely cares about her clients. My case manager Tayler is amazing too. She goes above and beyond to help us get everything in place so we can be successful and self-sufficient when we leave the program. I’m really grateful for all the support she’s given me. Overall, Sanctuary is a great place if you’re looking for a solid team that truly cares and wants to help you get back on your feet. ❤️🤞🙏

Looking forward to experiencing my stay at Sanctuary. I’ve heard good things and am excited to be apart of a group of people trying to put our pasts behind us.

Sanctuary is the best recovery center I've ever been to. It has turned my life around and leaps and bounds. The staff there are some of the most genuine people I've ever met. The houses are clean the facility is really… nice add my counselor Tayler was a Godsend. She's helped me accomplished so much in the short time that I've been there. She helped me with job leads placement after graduation and she helped me achieve my peer support specialist certification. The facilitator Dustin is one of the best I've ever seen. I wish nothing but the best for the program and those who go through it. You guys have a great opportunity to turn things around at sanctuary. My love goes out to the staff and the members.

Sanctuary Recovery truly made a difference in my life. The owner and the entire team were pivotal in my early recovery, offering real support, guidance, and care when I needed it most. I’m incredibly grateful for the… foundation they helped me build.

Best place to find sobriety, mental healthcare, and yourself again!

Great event! We had an awesome time and lots of networking. 10/10!!

Great event!!

Sanctuary recovery centers is an amazing and heartwarming place.

I was recommended to sanctuary for addiction treatment i was there for 9 days and got discharged by staff because I was left stranded by the veyo driver who dropped me off at the wrong address after my appointment with… doctor .also the BHT Raquel called my parole officer and told her I was discharged for all theses negative things like being disrespectful , not participating , and several other lies & I got introible from my parole officer because of this and I went there on my own thanking I was anynonomous untill staff called and told them these lies without my consent .I also seen them do this to another guy who was there too he went to jail because they called his probation officer and told them he was there and they came and arrested him there. And they gave away all this guys clothes and personal items that belong to him. I am in process now of grievance this place I would not WILL NOT RECOMMEND sanctuary to nobody ever.

Sanctuary Recovery Center is the shit I been trying to get clean since I was 19 now I'm 34 so I been to a lot of places and this is by far the best one I been to. Mr. Brown and Phil are amazing teachers they both do… things I have never experienced at any other places like the role play real life situations by Mr. Brown. And Phil will peel u back like a raw onion and get to the problem. The places whole staff really cares from Brenda to Tiffany to lonee, roman, Damien, Steve, Anthony, JT, roman, and Justin and Angelo. The put the power team to care and get shit done. So if you want recovery get it here. Joey is the owner and he has been where we all been as addicts and he truly cares. What more could u ask for...

I had such a great time going to IOP at sanctuary recovery center. The staff is so Hands-On and so caring. They made sure that I was able to get food right away and that I was comfortable without even asking. Especially… Brenda romero, and Phil martinez. They're probably the two most caring people that I've ever met in any type of recovery center. I suggest that anybody that is looking for some help goes to this place! Thank you brenda, thank you phil. You guys changed my life.

Sanctuary is such a great place. By the grace of God I ended up on there front steps of the Rose garden house with my bags and let me tell you something. Miracles happen at Sanctuary. There's no other way for me to put… it but while I was there I could feel myself transforming and begin to live life again. I am still early in my recovery, 70 days today. I look at life completely different today and I truly believe it's because of what ever happened to me at Sanctuary. They really do care and I can't thank them enough.

Amazing company, amazing leadership, genuine care and compassion. Easily the best in the industry. 10/10 recommend for any treatment needs as well as a workplace!

Sanctuary Recovery has changed my life in so many ways. I've been to a few different centers and Sanctuary has helped me the best. From inpatient to outpatient and sober living it's all been such a good journey. All the… staff are so understanding and helpful. The program is the best I've been too. They help with your Recovery in addiction and also with your life issues to become a normal sustainable citizen again. Thank you Sanctuary. And thak you so much Brenda Romero you've made me a better person. Leo the great

This place is an absolute joke! From the secretaries, counselors, management etc. You learn nothing. It's a circus here! They are so unprofessional, mean, even vindictive! They will conspire, gang up on you and… literally yell at the top of their lungs for a mistake on their part!! These are counselors, upper management! Absolutely sureal to witness such atrocious things like this! I wish I could explain more. But even simple things like scheduling a ride for you, or your in need of something..you won't get it. Just rudeness like "this isn't my job and I'm about to clock out!" This is after asking so many times, on so many occasions. Nobody has your back here. Your alone! I'll be stuck and they could care less. I'm currently sitting on a dirty floor in an extremely hot room! No joke! Over crowded, no seats etc Been weeks of this! All they care about is money obviously. About 4 more weeks of this hell and thank God I'm done! I don't normally do this, I don't write bad reviews, I'm not one to complain. It's just that bad. Well keep my message in mind when choosing where to go. Much better places out there I'm sure! Well good luck to you, I mean it!

Amazing

I just wanted to share my experience with Sanctuary Recovery Center. I have, diligently been trying to help a friend get her son into a treatment center with a sense of urgency. My friend lost a son two years ago to… addiction, . With relentless calls to other treatment facilities, I received lots of runaround. I called sanctuary recovery center and spoke to an individual by the name of Jeremy Schall with the care coordination department. Jeremy felt my sense of urgency and it was very comforting; he was knowledgeable, understanding and very patient. He guided me through the entire process. The human connection was amazing. I would recommend a sanctuary Recovery to anybody who needs help with addiction. Thank you again, Jeremy. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

This place helps people going through the toughest times of their lives. It has an amazing program backed by science based studies with a holistic approach. The staff is caring and open to their clients needs. The… therapy that takes place here will definitely help you to get back on the right path. I would definitely recommend this treatment center. They are changing lives for the better.
