Groups Recover Together – New Albany

Great people people saving lives

Look, first, Suboxone SAVED MY LIFE, and groups in theory is a wonderful path to recovery and saves lives everyday! With that being said, I am so so highly disappointed with my experience with this office In particular… and even the organization as a whole with my last experience... I'm 10 years sober off opiates and IV use so it's not even an option in my head anymore to return to use, BUT I was attending groups with a wonderful group of supportive and caring folks, our counselor Allison was also VERY educated and well versed when it comes to addiction and substance abuse disorder, she was a counselor that would kindly and witb compassion call any member out on their BS , she also offered in office therapy sessions for pstd and anxiety relief so me members in my group actually did art therapy with her and resolved alot of their issues, cannot say it enough Allison pucket is probably one of the best and relatable professionals ive met in my recovery journey, now it's very unfortunate that she has to be with groups trying to clean up their mess and trying to translate and communicate their policies, practices, and expectations. Cause groups has become something I can no longer in good faith recommend to people struggling with getting clean, like I said this tele health approach to getting on a MAT program opens the doors to so many people that may not have the resources or ability to travel to a providers office weekly, some that are freshly clean live second to second and groups is the hour a week they feel like there is hope. Anyway, my issue is Allison spent probably 10 or so minutes providing literally every phone number and names we would need to contact groups for Rx issues, or any issues, she even gave us exact time tables as to when we could expect some one to respond to the message or voicemail, and it was very reasonable too, 2-4 hours, for any organization handling 15k + members and getting them all meds and coordinating and facilitating every possible instance. So I was without meds, needed help with rescheduling and other things, I reached out exactly as I was instructed to in the exact format I was told to use... NO ONE TEXTED OR CALLED ME ....to this day only Alison has spoken to me, so I just cannot refer my people there cause if I was in the first part of my sobriety...if I called and texted 2 offices begging for help and I literally got NO response that's a good way to let someone fall back into use! And I communicated this with everyone at groups and they acted like oh no big deal, I MISSED GROUP 2 WEEKS IN A ROW, and I didn't get so much as a text... And by the second week had established myself back at clean slate, groups didn't know if I was dead or alive, and I don't really think anyone cared much that's only my opinion of course. I'm just saying I have a buddy who just got clean 1 month ago and got out of jail he's on methadone and wants an easier way to be on a MAT program he's homeless and doesn't have a phone i was even going to buy him one specifically for groups, but there is no way In the world id do that now ill just take him to clean slate with me. Groups recover together, please do better.. I understand you all have overloaded on patients but that's your fault you shouldn't take new intakes without the staff to support and keep track of your members that's a great way to kill addicts it sounds so dramatic but it's so true. I digress, thank you Allison for all your hard work you did actually teach me a lot in a short time the rest of you... please please please get it together. *"This is actually a 1 star review but Alison gets her own star I hope she goes into her own practice. Groups is a sinking ship

I like my teacher she always the one talking and teaching us about the people we are then reroutes our disfiguration

Everywhere and every day the group and the medicine helps me with my life without it I would fail

It’s a great place a great vibe and full of people that genuinely want to help you. I’ve been doing great being in groups and things have just gotten so much better for me.

Allison is an amazing therapist, good friend and just an overall great person to have in my life. I'm so greatful for this program and so so so thankful to have Allison in my journey, she helped to save my life!!

I feel that groups give me the tools to help me understand addiction and how to stay clean. My counselor Allison is also always there for me when I need her no matter what time of day or night it is thank you for… everything you've done for me

Groups has helped educate me on my recovery journey. Educated on the medication assisted recovery. How important it is to have the counseling. It has also helped me realize how far in recovery I truly am. Made me feel… more confident about my Moving Forward process!

I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a MAT program. It has changed every aspect of my life. I'm a productive, employed, happy, healthy, member of society now. I have hope for the future and I owe it to… this place. They were fast moving getting me started on the right medicine for me and I love that I can do these weekly meetings on my phone. Their is no excuse in the world to NOT ZZREASBJ KHM6

I feel Groups gives the tools necessary to us in Recovery that are actually ready for the recovery!! It helps if you are restarting life and you have a busy life and a job because you get the counseling, follow up and… groups you need all in one place!! Groups has been a great tool in my Recovery arsenal! I feel My Counselor Allison has seen me at my worst and now she gets to walk with me while I’m at my best so thank you to Allison and Sarah for all you do ❤️

I absolutely love Groups. I actually go to the in person Tuesday group and it’s something I look forward to every week! I’ve met some really great people being in that class

I love how they are very forgiving if you have a relapse bc instead of just kicking you out they talk to you and try everything to help you and steer you down the right path, they don’t give up on you. They set you up a… care team for all your needs, once they set you up with a group that you will attend once weekly they keep you in the same group and time every week so you don’t have to see new ppl every time and that way it helps you to feel more comfortable talking in group and sharing your struggles

Definetly a LIFE saver... if ur an active addict and wanting a change in ur life..give em shot it's worth it...they make me feel like they REALLY CARE ABOUT HELPING U INSTEAD OF BEING a way to make $$$

it is a great place beautiful people and they understand what we are going through in recovery and they are not judging people

They truly care about their patients at GRT. They have and continue to teach me how to save me. We do recover. Mrs. Allison, Ms Sarah, and Mrs. Becky are Angels in disguise. They are a true blessing in my life. Thank… you to all staff at GRT for believing in us and giving us another chance at life.

Groups is amazing, very patient and kind staff, always willing to go the extra mile to help you in your recovery. Ms. Allison is absolutely amazing, she holds me accountable and challenges me to do the next rite thing,… always trying to help me make the rite move to have a better more fulfilled life. I look forward to seeing her every week!!

Without Groups I know for certain my life would be completely out of control. With Groups I'm able to to live and enjoy a comfortable life while working on my sobriety. I was one of those people who truly thought that… there was no way out . No way I could ever function without using drugs because it became the first thing and the last thing I thought about when I went to bed or when I woke up. I'm just amazed and for once in my life I'm truly proud of myself for being able to and for wanting to fight off that dragon. I'm just very thankful there's such a program that's forgiving and flexible . I love myself again! I remember who I am now! I have a purpose ! If you want it to happen , then do it now before it's too late, you don't have to be alone because with Groups everyone has your back in your road to recovery. ! So thankful man it's crazy! Like I could mow y'all's lawn for free for the rest of my life I'm so thankful!

My counselor Allison is a God send and motivates me to do the right thing with my recovery by going beyond what she needs to , in my world that's not common.

Going to groups once a week is one of the greatest if not the greatest thing that's I have ever done for myself if your in active addiction I suggest you get yourself a second chance at life you will not regret doing it

Great staff. The opiate epidemic is out of control this is the first step to changing yourself and making a better world for everyone involved.

I have been in groups for a month and I recommend this place to anyone wanting to change their life! The staff are amazing no one judges you whatsoever! And you can feel free to open up about anything to people that are… in the same place you are it’s so neat how it all works ! The office manager Sara is great and very caring! And I could not ask for a better Counselor Allison!!!

I love groups and have a councelor that's full of knowledge and explanation!!! I as a patient look forward to my group each week. I recommend Groups to my family and friends. If you need help please give Groups a shot.… I made the choice and enjoy my best life now. Darlene Shields

I love this group!! Allison and Sarah are always so helpful and kind and they really do everything they can to give you the tools to maintain a successful life and recovery!
