In Their Words

REAL CLIENTS, REAL PROGRESS

  • "The Helix Center was a turning point for our daughter and our entire family. We acquired lifelong skills and discovered better ways of relating to ourselves and one another in a warm, supportive environment."

  • "[Helix is] clear that 12 weeks is not a silver bullet. But my child went from a zombie who didn’t want to leave their room, to reengaging with friends and activities, to a more vocal self advocate, who became more self confident and ultimately started engaging more at school."

  • "The responsiveness of the staff, rigor of the intake process, and the holistic approach with group therapy, individual therapy, parent therapy, and psychiatric med management, made for a rigorous but highly impactful 12 weeks."

“We found Helix through a recommendation of our therapist. She said the space and approach felt very different from other local intensive outpatient programs, and she was right. The responsiveness of the staff, rigor of the intake process, and the holistic approach with group therapy, individual therapy, parent therapy, and psychiatric med management, made for a rigorous but highly impactful 12 weeks. 

They are clear that 12 weeks is not a silver bullet. But my child went from a zombie who didn’t want to leave their room, to reengaging with friends and activities, to a more vocal self advocate, who became more self confident and ultimately started engaging more at school. As parents, we had an intensive journey through our own challenges that contributed to discordant home life so we could all work better together as a family. If you commit the time as a family unit, you will see the impact. We found the first few weeks actually got worse at home and school as they quickly dug into the layers of what was going on, but once the challenges we couldn’t get to on our own were out on the table, we made so much progress in 12 weeks and had great resources to work with after Helix. We are so grateful to the Helix team. ”
