What our clients say

There are people in this world who care and understand in ways no others can. You listen without judging and give advice without preaching. You've stood strong with poise and gentleness when I've felt defeated and hopeless. You were there when I wept in sorrow and you comforted me by saying it will be better tomorrow. You never made me feel like my problems were a burden and helped me see that there is light above the horizon. You may not see that through this journey you were a pillar of strength for me. And you've done this not because you had to, but because you wanted to. And for that I thank you. Your caring presence will never be forgotten, and know that I am grateful that during this difficult time, you've given me hope that things will be just fine!

While my stay at Whispering Pines I learnt a lot about personal values and self care techniques. The counseling was very thorough in touching with basic needs and targeting those triggers that deal with addiction. It also helped me with grief and depression for I was a broken person upon my arrival.

Thank you for putting my life in the right direction.

Just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate your help in taking good care of our son. Thank goodness there is a facility such as yours to help people such as our family.

Wishing you all the best.

I really enjoyed my stay here. I came in a complete mess and I'm leaving as a brand new person.

The best and most rewarding decision I have ever made was to participate in the 30 day program at Whispering Pines. It was also one of the most difficult decisions of my life, but I had finally realized, after many tries I couldn't do it on my own and I needed help with my anxiety, depression and addiction. I have been home a month now since my stay at Whispering Pines and how I live my life is completely different but rewarding and wonderful. I am now able to spend time enjoying my family, balancing my responsibilities, feel happy, positive, calm and fulfilled. I live for today and am no longer chasing "something" that I think will make me happy. I have found that I actually like myself and have been able to forgive myself. The holistic approach used at Whispering Pines taught me the tools I need in my day to day life to accomplish all of this. I am thrilled to say I can now challenge my thoughts and deal with stress and anxiety!! It is a great way to wake up each and every day.

The food and accommodations were outstanding, and a big perk to the program. I feel so fortunate to have had this amazing experience and what it has provided my family and myself.

I can't thank the staff enough for everything that they did for me. It was truly unbelievable. Thanks to Liz, Kathlleen, Milli, Gerry and Gary for the constant support, patience, education and love. It truly has given me a new life.

Very insightful programming, content assists dealing with deeper issues. A very safe place for recovery and a place to "rediscover" yourself.

Thank you Liz, Kathleen, Jerry, and Gary for your positive involvement in my recovery (the beginning)!

I truly think it was one of the best decisions in my life to enroll in treatment at Whispering Pines. I have learnt so much and gained many good friends along the way. The staff is great and very caring and helpful.

The food was great and everyone had fun participating in the kitchen.

I thank the staff and counsellors for helping me out during the tough times in my life and I feel really positive leaving.

My time spent here was a life changing experience. I learned more about myself in 30 days than in my entire life. The staff put their all into each day.

This is a great program for dealing with the underlying issues related to alcoholism & addiction. If your life has gotten to the state where you are considering treatment as an option, you will not regret Whispering Pines.

After having been at a different treatment center before this I honestly had a very good experience. The facility is excellent. Good privacy, nice gym, great food.

The staff was top notch including the counselors and managerial staff. I learned a lot about my disease and myself and most importantly how to cope with it effectively.

I highly recommend Whispering Pines to anyone seeking addiction treatment.

Let's face it, going into rehab is not always a picnic. But based on other testimonials of other rehab facilities of neighboring provinces, Whispering Pines is far ahead of the others. Staff is very warm, welcoming and sensitive to each client's needs. Whispering Pines does not put a Band-Aid on your underlying issues. They teach you to look into yourself and answer that big question "Why?". Then they teach you the coping skills to move on and have a healthy life. After care counseling is also available.

The staff / management are very obliging with house meals which is a bonus. Not the same cafeteria slop you have to eat because you don't have a choice.

So to those of you who are looking for health, happiness, faith, loving yourself again, Whispering Pines would be my choice.
