Thank you, Healing Wings.
There's a Native American proverb about two wolves that live inside us: one is dark, representing all that is bad like anger, envy, greed, and sorrow. The other is white, embodying all that is good like joy, peace, love, hope, and kindness. These two wolves are constantly battling within us. The question is, which one wins? The answer is: the one you feed. I’d all but lost my wolf to the black wolf (those who know, know). I gave my wolf an ultimatum to attend Healing Wings, or have him sectioned, or cut him off financially 100%. The hardest decision I ever made. The best decision I ever made. I have my white wolf back. He’s gonna have to keep feeding that white wolf, nothing good comes easy, but the difference between the wolf I sent into Healing Wings, compared to the wolf that came out, is night and day and black and white. Also, I always thought that these long-term rehabs would cost the same as the 3-week rehabs per month, and therefore this choice was unattainable. It's a lot more obtainable than R60k for 3 weeks. :) It’s not a yoga retreat, no. It’s hard work – spiritually and physically. Chad is an exceptional counsellor, and everyone else on the team is amazing. My wolf ate well, learnt so many skills, came out fit and smiling and fresh. Thank you! Remember Momma Wolves, if you're enabling the wolf, you're half the problem. I wish I'd had the courage to do this years ago, and if you're reading this and needing courage, this is your sign to just do it.

Thank you Healing Wings!
I came to Healing Wings broken and desperate for connection. If it were not for Healing Wings I would not be where I am today. Working for my recovery was not easy, but nothing in life worth having is ever easy. There are days I wish I could transport myself back in time to experience the love and community that I had during my stay. Nothing in my life has ever come close to being as fulfilling and life changing as my journey of self discovery at Healing Wings. Words will never be enough to describe just how grateful I am to them.

Positive experience
Having had a son a go to Healing Wings Youth Centre, I am impressed with the place. My son did really well for the first few months. During visits he told me about what and how their process works in great detail. Sadly he did not stick to the program and eventually got expelled. I can not blame the center in any way for expelling him, as I have dealt with his behaviour myself before. During his multiple disciplinary processes I was kept in the loop and often consulted. My overall experience as parent/guardian was good and I was impressed with what they do. I can recommend the center for anyone who wants to turn their life around.

A place that will love you enough to be honest with you
Almost a quarter century later HW remains a stable, humble place that holds fast to values. People are either ready to take their lives seriously, or they're not done with then benefits of staying stuck... either way, there are people who will be kind enough to you to tell you the truth in this world and that really, really helps anyone who is ready to take off in life and thrive.

Healing Wings saved my life.
Celebrating 8 years clean and sober because of this place. Beyond grateful for my experience here. Filled with good leaders who love the Lord. Side note: places that are meant to help people through really difficult things and genuinely help with successful realistic results will always produce either 5 star or 1 star reviews. Growth and change - is uncomfortable. You either get it or unfortunately you dont.

Zero stars
I was in this program for over a year. I left we with wayyyy more trauma than what i had come in with. It did not help me at all. When i most needed help, all i got was hours and hours of manual labor. I was 13 by the time i went there and was treated like garbage. I was physically and mentally abused. I would not at all reccommend going here or sending your children.

Healing wings was traumatising
I don’t like to speak poorly about other people, but this treatment centre was by far the worst one I have ever been to. I was honestly left with more trauma after leaving than when I came. There is no treatment there. It is all manual labour, lasting up to 12 hours a day. They’re harsh, hostile, and abusive, yet brush everything they make you do off as “consequences.” You can get consequences for anything from leaving dust on your shelf to accidentally looking at a man. They would make me clean their houses, polish their floors, wash their cars, it never ended. It was ridiculous. They made my eating disorder so much worse and didn’t manage my weight at all. The food provided was incredibly poor quality and not adequately nutritious at all. They frequently **** to my family members when giving feedback, even lying about things such as my weight, and wouldn’t send any of the messages I requested to. They portray Christianity as though it is a religious cult. Almost lost my faith there. Going to healing wings was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life and this treatment centre does not deserve to be open. A horrible centre run by equally horrible people.

Horrible treatment center
A horrible treatment center. Abusive and scary, leaves people with long lasting and deep rooted trauma. Qualified staff are few and far between. Manual labor is used as punishment and lasts up to 12 hours a day.
