Program Testimonials

After two rehabs and multiple counseling programs, we wanted to give up on the road to recovery for our son. We knew he needed a place that would not only offer counseling but one that would help him restore his self-esteem and integrity. I decided to look outside the box to a place that would offer a chance for our son to work hard, learn some skills that would help him get a job, and have a Christian based program. The program at this addiction treatment center also needed to be at least nine months to a year. I searched on-line for programs across the United States, for a place remote and not easy to walk away from. Mountain Valley Recovery and the Christensens were the answer to our prayers. He entered the program at 19 and he was addicted to drugs, he was angry, and wanted help, but didn't. Kellie encouraged him to stay in the program and her family became his biggest mentor. He worked on the ranch learning skills such as building, welding, driving heavy machinery- Just about anything and everything to be self-sufficient on a ranch. They had AA meetings, went to church on Sundays, and built a family within the group of men in recovery. It is the only thing that has saved his life when several of his friends and classmates have not been so lucky. Our son is currently in welding school and striving to be a successful citizen. I will always be grateful to the Christensen family for their warmth, compassion, steadfastness, and strength that they embodied to help our son.

We are forever grateful,
