Testimonials

Real People. Real Recovery.

Hear from those who’ve walked through our doors—and found their way back to themselves.

When you’re thinking about getting help, nothing matters more than knowing you’re not alone. The stories below come from people who sat in our chairs, slept in our beds, and cried through some of the same fears you might be feeling right now.

They got through it. You can too.

Why Stories Matter

At Greylock, we believe in the power of personal truth. These aren’t polished marketing lines—they’re real experiences from people who showed up scared, uncertain, and ready for change. Recovery doesn’t follow a script. But these voices show what’s possible when support is honest, treatment is compassionate, and care sticks with you.

Testimonials from Greylock Alumni

“I didn’t think I could be a mom and get sober. Greylock proved I could.”
The Nest Program changed my life. I was six months pregnant and terrified to ask for help. Everyone treated me with so much respect—not as someone who failed, but as someone who mattered. They helped me detox safely, start healing, and prepare for motherhood without shame.
— Nest Program Graduate
“I’ve been to other programs. This was the first one that didn’t treat me like a number.”
From day one, I felt like a person here. Detox was rough, but the staff didn’t just monitor me—they checked in, listened, and reminded me I wasn’t alone. Residential gave me space to face my trauma, and Stays Connected keeps me grounded now that I’m back home.
— Former Resident, Stays Connected Program
“The meds didn’t make me weak. They gave me a shot at surviving.”
I’d relapsed three times trying to do it without medication. At Greylock, they walked me through MAT—no shame, just facts and care. I was finally able to think straight again. I got my life back.
— MAT Participant
“My sister got help—and so did I.”
Watching someone you love struggle is torture. Greylock’s Family Forward program gave me a space to process my own pain, learn how to support without enabling, and reconnect with my sister. I’m so grateful they included families in the healing.
— Family Forward Participant
“This place saved my life. It’s that simple.”
I came in detoxing, broke, and ready to quit for good. Greylock gave me the medical care I needed to make it through withdrawal—and then they stayed by my side as I started to rebuild. I’ve been clean 11 months now.
— Detox and Residential Program Alumnus
“I felt like I could finally breathe.”
There were days I didn’t think I deserved recovery. But the team at Greylock never gave up on me. Group therapy helped me open up for the first time. Individual sessions helped me face what I’d buried. I found my voice—and I’m still using it.
— Residential Client
