"When a treatment system begins to focus on work as an important outcome and on vocational rehabilitation as a necessary treatment modality, the entire system of care can undergo a transformation into one which is more oriented towards the individual's strengths and future potential."

Balsam House provided me a nurturing home-like setting where Dr. Warner along with his caring and highly skilled staff helped me on a pathway to wellness. Additionally, there was a variety of group classes that were engaging and enjoyable. I am very grateful for my improvement while I was at Balsam House and know it is responsible for my better health.
