My ex sent our 18 yr old daughter to Renaissance after years of her being emotionally abused by him.
Her therapist was only a social work intern. Most of my daughter’s once a week therapy were spent on the phone to me because she did not have the training to deal with the kind of help needed. I spent 4 1/2 days there. I was shocked. The staff was abusive and encouraged personal attacks during group settings. During a session for parents I was attacked by the group because my 18 year old daughter lived with me. The nastiest attack came from a father have never even met his 20 year old daughter due to his alcohol and drug abuse. In another group setting the leader argued with a woman because she didn’t like the use of the recovering when she described herself as a recovering addition. The poor woman after enduring the attack for more than half the session left in tears. My daughter who is overweight was put in an eating disorder group with only anorexic. It was appalling. Residents were having sex in the washrooms during group sessions. Drugs and alcohol were rampant I can’t even describe the mess they caused when she left. They destroyed her sense of self esteem. I left half a day early because the place was so incredibly toxic. |
You left, but without taking your DD with you? |
